Focal Celestee (New Closed-Back Headphone)
The most important part is this: <point f="166" d="-5.5"/> <point f="333" d="-6.5"/> <point f="577" d="-3.5"/> The rest was just remains of my experiments. What I'm trying to do is get rid of the congestion and nasal voices. It's not perfect as while voices are not that...- Dawindyk

Focal Celestee (New Closed-Back Headphone)
Let's just keep in mind that Denons are more like semi closed than closed - they leak sound both ways. As for Celestee I have very mixed feelings. Out of the box they were just unacceptable - everything was cramped and nasal with almost no details. After a full day of burn-in, most in the box to...- Dawindyk

Sony NWZ-ZX1 - 35th Walkman Anniversary model
I have both DX90 and ZX1 so I guess I can comment. Sound wise I prefer Sony - just a bit but still. If You earphones don't require high power then it's a good solution. DX90 is a better choice for more demanding ones- Dawindyk

Earsonics SM3 Appreciation Thread - Third Time is a Charm?
Quote: Although they may be hard to swap channels it's not impossible - and imbalance like I have in my phones received this week is simply huge. If it's a common issue then it clearly suggests a quality control problems - definitely not a good sign- Dawindyk

IE7s for Sony X1060
IE7 has a quite good synergy with Sony X series so You shouldn't be disappointed. I should however clarify one thing - it's not NC 020 hissing, it's Your player. If You want to get rid of hiss You should look for IEMs with higher impedance or start using amplifier- Dawindyk

New iPod Family!

New iPod Family!
Quote: It's not only a DAP so if You're buying it for that purpose only You're obviously choosing the wrong one. I don't see any fanboyism if someone states it has touchscreen and so on - the purpose of itouch is not only to play the music. It's n-in-1 product and serves that purpose quite...- Dawindyk

New iPod Family!
Quote: I do notice it on both IE8 and MTPC - it's pretty annoying especially if I compare it to Sony's own S639, And ipod's sound is definately not crappy - at least not iTouch 2G/3G. Although I prefer both my Sony's I have no problem with listening to my music from iTouch 2G - and using...- Dawindyk

Good Isoloation Cans that sound like ESW9's?
