Having had the XTC 2.5 for a few months now they still keep impressing me. Just came from a couple of weeks holiday and was thrilled to get back to them. Just when the weather was crap and I was in no mood to listen to anything somehow I forced myself to play my last obtained album... The Taxi...

Not sure if you can get better closed back than XTC especially in its price range. Even if you go higher there is not much of competition as far as I heard not even ZMFs are touching the XTC in details department plus XTC closed have amazing soundstage. Most of the higher priced closed backs...

Im considering 300ohm for XTC Open.. would like to know more details

nope... I got 64ohm and suprisingly its still very easy to drive.

Indeed, the D7000 very good sounding hp especially considering its age. With a bit of EQ they can be pretty detailed too. Their buttery soft sound is pure addiction. On the other side D7200 is great evolution of these classics and yes, it is superior in almost all aspects. There were multiple...

Do you know if the S grills are still available as they are not listed on the website as an option anymore. Same goes for the cup covers they also are no longer listed. Anyway, I hope this could be just temporary thing due to the conflict over there. I wish it would be all over soon so he can...

Well, there is nothing wrong with EQing the set you love. If it brings the results you are looking for why to sell? The APO equalizer its really awesome and improves all my sets.

Guys PLEASE make 2m version as well.

I got it about an year ago from Ebay (some chinise seller). Initially, I got it for my other hp D7000 but ended up using it with XTC. There are some replacement headbands available now but do not see this same type right now. Once I spot it I post the link here.

For the slippage problem.. Here is an excellent solution... small rubber rings, you can put them from bottom and top then the problem with slippage is gone. They can be applied to many different headphones.

Since I got the XTC 2.5 they have been amazing. Superb sound that gave me no space to improve it further with some EQ settings. Still there was a small setback in terms of their fit. I have a small head and I really struggled to make the clamp force and seal good enough for my liking. Their seal...

Very cool :) !! I would be interested to hear how these compare to Tungsten and Tres SE. Would it be possible to make and share some comparison?

Great reading, indeed. Thanks for all these details. I am considering to add planar hp to my collection soon. I listen almost all genres. Just now I am listening some orchestral music with XTC 2.5 and I am really enjoying that. I am impressed how XTC is handling complex passages pretty well...

I hope later on you can post some detailed comparison of Kennerton Rognir vs XTC 2.5. That would be very interesting reading. Thanks

I think its Yello - Out Of Dawn
