    Are XONE 52 headphones considered to be neutral or balanced?

    Hi! I tested some from a coworker as I have been trying to compare the mdr-x10 to a more balances headphone but not sure if that is considered balanced. The fit is one I cannot deal with btw as I had to push the cups to my ear to get any bass...just like with my old Sens HD212pro Thanks!

    Damn cat keeps biting through my chords!!

    At first it was my oldest pair, the headphones that started it all for me, the Sennheiser HD212 Pro's. He severed both left + and - wires. Fortunately I could fix those (but the OFC doesn't really apply anymore, so there's that nagging in the back of my mind), and what a PITA that was!  ...
