Wow, first thanks to hifizen for RS2e vs GH1 write up and donlin for the PS500e vs GH1 comparison. I had the PS500e and thought it too bassy and currently have the RS2e but find it too trebly without the tape mod like hifizen, and was worried the GH1 would sound too bassy like the PS500e, but it sounds like I may prefer the GH1.
thanks
Flat pads toned the treble down on rs2e though? I learned that from your 4-way comparison. Then when I tried them out myself, It's quite noticeable. It still have nice treble, but it's a little less and the bass is more but less punch-y. Which is great for me.
Though I do find out of the 3 (325e rs2e ps500e), the rs2e mid-bass punches the hardest out of them all, it's qutie noticeable. Maybe ps500e has more sub-bass but I feel that the rs2e bass really hits my ear in "raw, planar-like" sort of way. I found Flat Pads dilutes the bass punch a little bit and that was great.
ofc, I don't have the rs2e anymore and only listened to the flat pads on my last day of owning them so my impression might not be 100% accurate.
