Shouldn't An Analytical Sound Be Superior? - Page 3

Analytical in my mind is kind of cold, highly articulate and bright. It lacks oomph and character. Usually not a "full" sound. Sometimes what you're listening to sounds disconnected... Sounds like a bunch of instruments playing to you, instead of a song. It's more about the parts of the whole, than the whole itself.

Reminds me of a Vespa scooter forum I used to follow where fights would erupt over which color bike was the fastest.

(BTW - Black is the correct answer) smile.gif

Any chance you all could give example of headphones you find analytical vs. headphones you find fun?  I have a DT880 and am planning on building or buying a tube amp for them.  But I do find them a little analytical.  I've been thinking my next headphones would be something like the DT990 to add a bit of bass and because I like these Beyers, but I'm open to other suggestions.  Thanks.

 

Not trying to hijack the thread, but when we get to the point of analyzing color, I think its time to start turning to the practical side of the argument.

if u want to stick to beyer..i recommend a dt770/600ohms..

its analytical and has a kick in the bass..

i can feel the drivers in mine physically rocking on my ears when i play some bigpounding music.

Get a hybrid tube amp...like a LYR...and u are ready for a showdown.

 

i wont recommend the circumaural tesla/s ....:P
