Hi all again!
Im writing to invoke your knowledge about a matter thats bothering me about the soundmagic hp150.
After almost 2 months of reading and reading, im almost sure about buying the Soundmagic Hp150, but there are still some questions on wich i found contradictory info, so if someone that has them can share its impressions about them, i´d be really grateful (I know 150 headphones its kind of a "cheap" ones compared to what i´ve saw here, but they are an effort to me so i want them to be worth every penny). I currently own the creative aurvana live 1, wich are broken. I loved them, so i tried the cal2 and the bass was extremely bloated and uncontrolled for me, bleeding into mids, so i returned them. Im looking for something like them, with at least same comfort (both are light and comfy, without clamping force) and a bit of noise cancelling (cal1 did not noise block, but cal2 did in a decent amount).
But enough rabble, this are my questions (oh, and I want them for listening classical, rock, metal, movies and gaming. I also listen to a wide variety of music like electronic in a good amount but those are my primary uses...):
1-I´ve read that the mobile part is kind of annoying when they are on your head, is that true?
2-Are they comfortable for extended periods of time, even with glasses? (2,3,4 hours)
3-They have a veeeery slight vshape, wich i like, but i´ve read that they can be too bright/sibilant...is that true? Also i´ve read that the treble is kind of metallic...
4-How about their ability to locate instruments/players/sounds around you?---->this one is very important to me.
5-Someone described them as "neutral rather than organic and natural"...does that mean that they their sound is artificial?
Sorry for the long post and thank you for reading all of it!
