I am starting this thread to start a list of Head-fi members' first Eargasm. this is a momentous occasion in an audiophiles life. I don't mean the little time that you go, "this sounds good", I mean when you hear something and feel the need to grab everyone within a half-mile radius and force them to listen to this ear(th)shattering combination of headphone and music. now the format is as follows:
Equipment used:
Track, Artist and Album:
Date (if you can remember):
Story:
it should look like this:
Equipment used: Zune HD 16gb, Fischer Audio DBA-02
Track, Artist and Album: Franks, Infected Mushroom, Legend of the Black Shawarma
Date: January 7th, 2011
Story:
So a few weeks ago I bought the Fischer Audio DBA-02s at the strong recommendation of my friend. I loved them immediately and had no idea headphones could sound this good. before this I had been using S4s, which are by no means bad headphones, but cannot compete with the DBAs. I have been "wowed" by them many times before, but nothing to write home about. anyway, I was listening to the DBAs this morning, and the track "Franks" by Infected Mushroom comes on. anyone who likes infected mushroom and has heard them through the DBAs can agree with me that it is a match made in heaven. these things were made to play trance like this. all of a sudden in the song, there is a part where all the music just stops for a fraction of a second, and I had always hated this part because my S4s echoed right through it. I hit that part and...nothing. NOTHING! no echo from long decay, it was a jolt to my eardrums. as claude debussy said, "music is the space between the notes". I had never really payed much attention to this before, but now I love my DBA's even more. music has never sounded so beautiful and I appreciate it so much more now.
