-What are we in Middle Earth? Christ
I enjoy spacious staging over the more forward presentation which is exactly why I asked. I have the XS to fill that need so now I'm going back to the large soundstage like the Ananda. I don't know where you got all that other nonsense from
That you enjoy spacious soundstage, only proves that you like spacious soundstage.
This does not prove anything about the XS. It only proves that you like a spacious Soundstage.
Im sitting here with the XS, the Susvara, the Abyss TC, the Hifiman Edition Xv2, the DCA Ether 2 and the Final Audio D8000 Pro.
So, Where do i get my experience ?
From owning everything.., and because i have, or still do.....i am able to compare sound stage or instrument separation or whatever else..
Let me show you something.... interesting.
Joshua Valour......has been listening to headphones for about 5 yrs.
Thats it.
He hates the Stealth V3, because it does not sound like the other Hifiman HE1000 versions, from which the Arya is created, that he worships.
So, you can't be a "sound" authority, if you've only heard 30-40 headphones and have only been listening to headphones for 5 yrs.
Its not enough time spent.....Its not enough experience........listening.
It takes a lot of time to develop a perspective that allows us to HEAR with authority, and judge Headphones, accurately.
Lots of time spent listening to lots of Gear.
No offense intended, but there are a lot people who have owned less than 40 sets of headphones, who believe they have heard them all.
Well, im not that pretender, as i have heard them all., or own them all, if they are made since the Senn HD600 was created, as that was my gateway drug, and since that one.... i have heard them all, unless its a toy, or something that i would just not care to hear.
There are a few.
Let me show you this now.....
I reviewed the XS, before anyone in the USA owned it.....by about 4 weeks.
I bought it from a "Non-Authorized Dealer", in Asia, because i am that person...
Im not going to concern myself with a "warranty issue" regarding a $400 obo, set of headphones, when the "non-authorized DEALER, gives you a new one, if your's isn't working".
That works for me., ... because a set of headphones....if they are defective...this shows up quickly.....not 4 months later, is the general rule.....So, if your gear is working for 4 months, it'll probably be working in 4 yrs, if you treat it with care.
So........Im going to have the gear....because life is too short to wait... for "inventory to arrive".
Some people need to get busy LIVING< as "days go by" and you only have so many...reader.
Get busy living...
Do it.
Do it today....start NOW.
Here is what you do.....Always be a good person and do the right thing, and live your life wide open.
Maxx it out.
Dont worry about what people think........Let them worry about that., while you live your life, full speed ahead as you run circles around all of them.
Go fast, as life is very short.
So..Now, about 2 mohths later, the XS reviews on Youtube have landed, this week.
Moon Audio.
Andrew at Headphones.com ....(The Headphone Show).
What do they say?
Exactly what i told you, in my review, a couple of months ago..
They have both heard a lot of headphones....so, that is why they know the XS is a very good gear......to hear.
