Headphoneus Supremus
I've had them for 5 days (mahogany), and hate them. What do I hate:
* bass across the board is at least 2 db above norm, some spots it's +4. If I could blend this bass with my HD-600 bass I'd likely be very happy. I also hear thickening in the low mids - uck.
* There are one or two spikes in the highs that make my ears bleed. I hated digital for years for this type of sound, if not for my Schiit Gumby I'd still be all vinyl.
I plan on doing the following to help stop this unpleasant reaction:
1. Keep them plugged in an play my 5 CD Changer on repeat until I get to well over 100 hours before they go near my ears again.
2. Take my Delkoni fenestrated lambskin off of my FH500RP's and replace stock
If that's not a good deal better, than I'll try going to:
1. balanced connection, helped the HD-600 (less tizzy in treble, more control and nuance in bass - using Ragnarok)
2. flip drivers with my FH500RP's (lower bass, get more sound stage for these.
Any other ideas? (don't say "tubes")
