Yeah, X1 benefits quite a lot from neutral sided DAC and powrful amping (be careful not to exceed 500mA with these).

Not much fan of classical but sounds great imho. contrabass and low-fr instrument timbre is beautiful!Anyone tried this on classical music? How's it sound
Choosing "right" signature source (neutal/bass shy) and proper amping (around 500mA max) resolves that "issue"....but for piano and violin solo and concerto, missing air and clarity, too thick.
I mostly listen to symphony, but low-fr is one of my favoriteNot much fan of classical but sounds great imho. contrabass and low-fr instrument timbre is beautiful!
what classical, baroque ? or Shostakovich, solo and sonata , or symphony? x1 is not the 1st choice for classical. for symphony is ok. some opera are surprisingly good. but for piano and violin solo and concerto, missing air and clarity, too thick.
if you need a kick ass good headphone for classical go the Aeons , a cheaper one ? just get the HD6XX . The Nad viso hp50 is cheaper closed back , but still not bad at all.
X1 is good for general use not bad for anything. I like it for jazz,classcal is not bad(it is not like hd25 playing Mozart). wonderful for movies.
