V Moda Crossfade LP? - Page 2

post #16 of 17
Well I think these are great headphones. Definitely not the top for their price range, but they have a certain trick. I think that while at first it may seem like the bass sounds muddy and drowns out everything else, there are several initial factors that fix this. The first is, they require A LOT of break in time. I'm talking something along the likes of a week's worth. After the break in, the bass certainly picks up and tightens, but doesn't jump out as much. These also benefit greatly from a good amplifier, as well as from twiddling with an EQ. After about 10 to fifteen minutes or so of messing about, I really got a great response from the mids and highs, and the treble certainly did not sound muddy and dull. The soundstage is rather wide, considering these are closed headphones, and the treble still had hints of echo. After break in and messing around with an amp, they sound a lot brighter than they do out of the box. It's like listening to a completely different pair of headphones.

You have to burn these in. And if you don't they will never meat there full potential. You have to push these FAR harder than any other headphones out there. What i did Was i Plugged them into my laptop Cranked the volume up to 80% and sometimes even higher, went into my Srs premium sound software options and turned the speaker type to medium and large. Then i opened up media go(my media software of choice) and put it on shuffle.(make sure your media player's volume level is at max). And had music cranking through these an entire day. listen to them while there on your laptop and see the sound quality. On my laptop twas Bloody epic. then after ATLEAST two day's plugged them into my sony A-865. And man......they were phenomenal. Destroyed my Fanny wang 2001's which>ath-m50. They are also pretty very comfortable, Once you get them around your ear they seem to just disappear, Though you DO need them to burn into your head size four them to get that comfortable(and yes these are best suitable for sport's do to not budging an centimeter when i was running with them on). People never seem to realize that these Need to be BURNT in before returning....Audiophiles im looking at you. Also do not use these with crappy idevices as those cannot drive these that well.(I recommend cowown and sony.)these are also some of the Most well built and best looking pair of AUDIOPHILE(post burn(meaning after burn-In)headphones ever and sound great with all genre's of music. so before judging these PLEASE burn them in and then come talk to me.

(pre-selected song's tested with. Haitoku no tsubomi. celldweller against the tide(deluxe edition),disturbed(in general). and desoloz: fight to the death, 13 reflection and emma crashing down OBE remix.)

That's my review. I will update just to say something's that i may not have said and comment's are well appreciated.
