    What Makes "Great Detail" in TOTL Headphones?

    What about drivers cones modal frequency response? We always consider the driver cone movement taking for granted the cone behaves like a perfectly rigid body. But what if at a certain (high) frequency the cone cannot be considered anymore as a perfectly rigid body? What is is starts deforming...

    Sennheiser IE80's Impressions Thread

    100% agree. BTW I already moved a step up to 400 eur entry levels hifi speakers+amp, but rarely listen to them as they do not fit in my pocket! ;-)

    Sennheiser IE80's Impressions Thread

    IEM for metal music and hard rock - ultimate solution

    N3ap are excellent all rounders, the bass department is well extended, with subbass emphasis. Bass definition while being good is not the best. Sennheiser ie80s or earsonics es3 are more performant in this regard.

    IEM for metal music and hard rock - ultimate solution

    Seems like you are really happy with it. 10 hours battery life is a huge performance, compared to what's actually on the market.

    This is very expensive. How is it? Really worth the money?

    IEM for metal music and hard rock - ultimate solution

    Sony N3ap. If you like wired they are ready out of the box. Otherwise just switch to a wireless cable. I would recommend a bluetooth 5 cable for best quality. They can be found as low as 200 eur.
