Ferrum WANDLA GoldenSound Edition - Pre-Orders are Live!
I don't want to buy a pig in a poke. A loan/test programme (promotion) would be interesting. I took part in some of these programmes at a German hi-fi forum years ago. An English headphone amplifier manufacturer and an English hi-fi forum also had such campaigns at the time. The participants...- FritzS

THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO
Full Score one is a very good headphone amp! This is an ‘inaudible amplifier’ - which means very, very close to the ideal of ‘a pice wire with gain’. I've been listening with this for a while now, even with different headphones.- FritzS

Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone
@Xerosnake90 I also have the Neumann NDH 30 or Sennheiser HD 490 PRO in mind. These headphones should round off my small collection (see signature) at the bottom.- FritzS

Beyerdynamic Amiron Home (the new T90)
DT 1990 PRO - now tested alternating analytical pads versus balanced pads (as quickly as I could change if I only have one pad clamping ring on the headphones, it's not always that easy, sometimes bounces out of the groove. I also need to practise threading them at the beginning). Listened to a...- FritzS

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
With the DT1990 it depends very much on the piece of music whether highs (peak ~8kHz) interfere. These disturbing passages are also audible with other headphones (K712, K812, Composer, Hi X65), although not as intense. This is therefore also related to the mix. JRriver Mediacenter comes with an...- FritzS

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
For me DT1990 (mostly with analytic pads) at most music I have no problem with treble, sometime I use 31 band EQ (from Apples macOS sound) -2dB at 8kHz - or the hardware filter modelled with paramatric EQ from solderdude...- FritzS

Sennheiser HD 490 Pro Plus coming?
Only comparing NDH30 with HD490 Pro are useful, both are open. In my opinion, they are like stepsisters. Unfortunately, there are hardly any opportunities to hear and compare them in a shop. You have to rely on the internet to at least get a rough overview.- FritzS

You post the same solution, I see this to late :slight_smile: Grados that I tried briefly were too warm for me after a short time, the open-pored foam was slightly scratchy. Reminded me of the ancient yellow Sennheiser HD 414 headphone.- FritzS

No closed composer seems to be planned at the moment. Example K812 versus K872 - what were the sales numbers of the K872? The people at Austrian.Audio still know exactly.- FritzS

Sennheiser HD 490 Pro Plus coming?
Is the only difference between the HD490 Pro and HD490 Pro plus that the HD490 Pro plus comes with more accessories? Are the headphones themselves identical? How does the HD490 Pro compare with the Neumann NDH30 or even the Beyerdynamic DT1990 pro or Amiron?- FritzS

THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO
Even I get too warm during longer listening sessions. I reported this to the developers right at the start of the test. I know velour pads from AKG and Beyerdynamic, they also get warm but you don't sweat as much. Velours/Alcantara pads are apparently still a little delayed. The pads also have...- FritzS

THE COMPOSER OPEN BACK FLAGSHIP by AUSTRIAN AUDIO
So far, there has been an open and a closed version in every Austrian.Audio headphone model series. Would also be desirable for the Composer. Especially in studios, closed headphones are needed for recording and open ones for recording control and mixing. Composer is also a supplement to studio...- FritzS
