Exactly.. When I first put them on it was with an analyzing how do they sound attitude... It was ugly, especially on the Sansui. It got better with sources, but once I decided they sucked, I didnt want to listen any more.. Then later on, completely uninterested in hearing them, I put them on and I was like hey wait.. These sound good.

Yep. Exactly how I found them. Especially the mids. At first they dont seem like it, but you soon learn that theyre very revealing and transparent.

I'm already ahead of you. One of the first things I did. I have to admit, the extra bass does add a bit of a "fun" factor into the drum hits, etc. It's cool because I hate over emphasized sloppy bass, but this sortof feels like it belongs, even though I know it's a little on the bloated side.

Just about everyone seems to have reacted the same way. My first listen to the 250-80s was done next to the 831s, and straight away my impression was "these do not sound as good as the 831s" months later, guess which ones I listen to more? 
They are revealing, just not in an "in your face(ear?)" kind of way. You can hear lots of detail if you want, but if you'd rather just sit back and enjoy the music you can - the 831s don't let me do that, I find myself hearing every flaw whether I like it or not. Xander: do this test - Put a good Pink Floyd album on (any will do), sit back and -don't- listen to the headphones
Just see how you feel instead of trying to hear the headphones. |
