Current: AKG k701 (Full size studio) (Home reference) (Sound Signature: Analytical) Creative Aurvana Live! (Full size portable) (Fun!) (Sound Signature: Bassy) Unique Melody 3-Way Quad Driver (CIEM) (Sonion 3300+Knowles ED+Sonion 2300) (Sound Signature: depends on EQ!) I prefer a slightly analytical sound signature. Clarity, balance, neutrality, technical performance and detail are of utmost importance. In the context of well recorded tracks, mixing and equalising is the artist and sound engineer's art. Respect art. Owned: Denon D1001 Meelectronics A151 Meelectronics CC51 Ultimate Ears 400 Apple In-ear Audio Technica ath-AD700 Audio Technica ath-m50 UE Triple.fi 10 Brainwavz B2 |
| Headphone Amp Inventory |
Objective2 by NwAvGuy, built by JDS Labs. |
| Source Inventory |
iPod Touch 2g, iPod Touch 5g |
| Cable Inventory |
Stock cables only. Westone Epic (Had) Unique Melody stock cable. Fiio LOD Cable agnostic. I've heard a HD650 with a non stock cable that was a LOT brighter than an average HD650. Most cables don't make much of a difference though.. hard to say. |
| Power-Related Components |
Firewood. Lots of it. |
| Audio-Related Tweaks |
Reading biased, overhyped headphone reviews and then spending lots of money on the aforementioned headphones./sarcasm Cleaning your ears really helps. Really! |
| Music Preferences |
Mostly Rock, rock/pop, alternative rock, J-rock, J-rock/pop, prog rock but not pop/mainstream stuff in general. A little bit of DnB, Electronic, Indie, Punk Rock, Synthpop... and many others, with the exception of rap (do you even call that singing?), dubstep and other ear bleeding genres. Orchestral OST's and instrumentals from various Anime/VNs/Games. Classical. Contemporary. Well recorded albums only. |
| Interests (non-headphone) |
Cycling, Biology, Japanese Language |
| Gear-Fi (Favorite Non-Audio Gear & Gadgets) |
Quad Core Mobile i7 2630QM powered laptop. Trek 7300 with lightweight aluminium alloy fork. Never got why they'd stick shocks onto a skinny hybrid. |

If music is dry and boring with colourless headphones, the problem is with your music, not your headphones.
Well rounded reference mid range can.
