New Headphones (Alessandro MS Pro)

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 

I ordered a pair of these based off of reviews alone - hope they are to my taste. I had a set of Grado HF-2 that were new in the box when I got 'em and they sounded fantastic. Hope these MS Pros are close to that soound tongue.gif

Hope you like Rock/Jazz

 

Grado's are good for anything IMO

FedEx guy brought me a nice surprise today....

 

The MS Pros look awesome and are really light weight. Fresh out of the box the sound really good - to my likings. If there is such a thing as "burn-in" then I assume they will only sound better as time goes on.

Yeah they can be a little harsh in the treble register once you get to the extremes, that and the wood goes through seasonal changes just like instruments made of wood too!

 

They'll sound great, and better later, but whats more important is your ears become tuned to appreciate them more, it's just a mental burn-in. For example even though I've gotten older (probably more deaf too), I appreciate much more analytical *boring* sounding headphones much more than I used to like 3-4 years ago.

 

Enjoy 'em in good health brother!

Nicely done, Enjoy them both! A nice comparison would be welcome :)

 

How are you running them btw?

My HF2s sound more forward, louder and bassier than the MS Pro. But both are definitely excellent cans. =) Just sent my MS2i out to Symphones for Magnumizing.

I didn't like the MS2, heavy and too bright.
