thats a good idea. sometimes my preferences shift a little as I become acclimated to a particular sound. I'm wondering if this is happening to you also

But today I ran back too nyc too make sure I my hearing was still ok and he agreed that they sounded much better than they did yesterday. heck they sound less dark right now they they did this morning and I cant tell if I am going crazie or if this is the most dramatic burn in in history. I would like another owner of tma1 studios too chime in on this if there is another one out there.

 

That sounds just like the regular TMA-1 - dark, huge bass, and a little veiled. I love that sound. :)

 

However, if the TMA-1 Studios are a refined version with lesser bass presence, I might pass on them, even if I initially wanted a bigger version of the TMA-1.

 

Thanks.

I want too get the original tma1s so I can do a comparison but I am already having a hard time with the cost of the portable headphone shootout I am doing, but I do think the ear pads on the studios might be able too be used with the original tma1. And "veiled"? I thought that word was invented too discribe the hd650beyersmile.png

 

I should add I am using the pu foam pads that come on it and have not really tried the pleather ones

So far, who's winning? I just placed my pre-order, but between the TMA-1 Studios and M50's, which is the better headphone? How do they compare to the others you have?

I just put up the product page on Head-fi, could you please also put your review in as the first? It would help any potential owners find impressions on it more easily - thanks!

Put in my order for mine at the Ghostly store - I'll probably be getting the straight cable as well from aiaiai, since I'm not a big fan of coiled cables.
