Are the auteur pads as deep as the universe pads ?

All I know is that this is my favorite headphone, and the honeymoon period seems to never end.

Yeah i just put the Be2 suedes on for the first time in a while, excellent sound.

Has anyone tried any of the universe pads with the bokeh? My right ear seems to be touching something on the inside of the stock protein pads. It honestly wasn't very noticeable at first, but after a couple of long sessions it has become pretty annoying. I know the universe pads have always...

I picked mine up at the headphoneauditions store in amsterdam. They had a ruby stained and this one in stock. I loved the look of this one immediately as well, but to be honest i think most if not all of them look awesome. I am sure yours will look great.

The comfort is great for me, no heat build-up or ears touching anything. Pretty lightweight as well. Man you can turn these up in volume, even at higher spl i don't experience any fatigue at the moment. Very nice and somewhat polite sound signature.

Thank you! I got too excited to even notice i guess

Just got these today. Had a good 2 hour session with them so far, very impressed with them.

Are the caldera ultra perf pads closer to the universe stock pads in depth? I have the Be2 suedes but they're too shallow for me as well. Which is unfortunate because i do like the way they sound.

just absolutely gorgeous!

Yeah i highly recommend the echo with this headphone. its a great pairing, imo. The echo definitely doesn't have that gooey tube sound, it's a more linear sounding amp with a little bit of warmth added. paired with the RME ADI 2 DAC it provides a completely fatigueless and extremely enjoyable...

I could swear i am hearing things i haven't heard before in songs with this headphone, it's happened multiple times already. I am sure the actual sounds are there on other headphones of course, but with the atrium they are just much more noticeable somehow. This headphone is also the king of...

Beautiful picture. The atrium sounds so good on the echo as well.

Guys are the Be2 perforated suede pads as deep as the stock ones that come with the atrium?

we have the exact same setup, i am running my atrium on the RME + Echo as well, great pairing.

Thank you, i will keep it plugged in from now on then. I am using my samsung phone charger right now, is there a good iFi power supply that would fit better with the iDSD Signature? edit: just bought the iPower 2

Guys when using this primarily on the desktop, should i keep it plugged into power or should i just use the battery?

here is his list of EQ's: https://www.reddit.com/r/oratory1990/wiki/index here is the HD800S: EQ https://www.dropbox.com/s/zsp3jucy5lsty0m/Sennheiser%20HD800S.pdf?dl=0

anyone else really like this device with the HD800S? I harman EQ my HD800S using oratory1990's settings, and the amplifier in this does something extremely pleasant with the mids on the HD800S compared to even way more expensive amps ive heard, it doesn't have the same dynamics as say a...

also want to mention that the iHA-6 sounded great for as long as it worked and is a steal at the price , I was just unlucky to receive a bad unit. the customer service is also excellent, all kudos to Cayin.

why do you assume it was affected by my dac? and why would it be affected by how I was feeding the amp? you just plug in cables and stuff works, I was using it with my RME ADI-2 DAC on +7 ref, the amp made noise basically right out of the box, when just plugging in headphones, it was just a...

What could the problem be? Something with the RME or maybe the cables?

I dont know if you read my post, but I already mentioned that everything sounds wonderful now.

just posting some impressions / thoughts of a pretty stressful week, I own a HD800S and have been using it for a while with just the RME ADI-2 DAC, which imo is a wonderful little combination on its own, however upgraditis struck me recently to go back to balanced. I heard a lot of great things...

apparently this might be an oscillation problem, I got a super quick response and great customer service.
