I was chasing the dragon to find the perfect AMP/DAC and HP. Got out of hand looking back at it. I was like an addict looking for his next fix. Couldn't stop and now have a wall of HP's. To answer the orginal question. I purchased the Pro Clears (wanted the extra set of pads and liked the...

All person taste. I can 100% tell you the treble has come down on my pair. Additionally, your ears will adjust. Some people hate the treble immediately. I did not hate it and not sibilant most of the time. Others are more sensitive. Only way to know is to try them. Buy from a place that allows...

100% agree. They hold their own and seem well built. Zero buyer remorse and even contemplated getting a second pair. I have not had any sound issues. Evidently there is ringing if you do a frequency sweep. Don't listen to sweeps just music and have no need to try and find an issue. Highly...

Currently own M570's (great budget planar), Aeon Flow Open Owned/Tried: Sviga PII's, Sundara's, Arya's To my ear all the planar's I have tried needed medium volume to sound full. This all depends on how much power your feeding them. Planar's actually got better the more power/volume you gave...

Been waiting for a deal and jumped on a labor day sale. Got them yesterday and have been non stop listening. Man I love these cans. I am on my second set of Clears. On the first round I was actually sad in a good way when I first listened to them. Do not have an audio shop local so bought off of...

So I made the decision to keep the 1990's. Have more than enough headphones, but couldn't let them go. I have burned them in for a while and surprisingly the hot treble has disappeared from most listening on most tracks. Still has emphasized Treble which I believe is a Beyerdynamic sound...

My Sundara's had channel imbalance out of the box. I still liked the sound even with vocals towards my shoulder vs center stage. That had a great tonality. I think off memory they had better bass. I read about possible QC issues with Hifiman and rolled the dice. Instead of getting an exchange I...

Been listening to my pair for a few weeks now. These are great HP's at the sale price. Just got my Sendy pads. Plan to listen for a while then do the change so I can evaluate. They 100% have changed during burn in. I was never a believer on burn in, but I have now seen first hand two cans sound...

So I have been listening non stop since I got them. Put in a order for Sendy pads. Figured I would try them out. Couldn't find a way to get stock replacement pads anywhere. I have found that on some songs the sound is great. On others it's just ok or slightly annoying. So it appears they are...

So the M570's arrived today. Only spent the last hour listening. Will continue burning them in, but they are a nice set of cans. Love the side grills. Not a huge fan of the headband. Sound is slightly treble forward and bass seems slightly thin. Super clear and clean though. Still holding my...

The Sundara is not a studio headphone. It is a great sounding Audiophile HP that performs great for it's price. If you want a true studio HP look at DT 1990 or Ollo S4. Really any HP can be used if you know how the sound is presented. If it has more bass mid or treble you will need to adjust...

Bought a pair to try out from Amazon. Be here tomorrow. For $200 I think they are a steal for a Sendy clone. Tried the Sviga PII's and liked them, but they were $400. At the time I was more frugal and thought that was expensive. How times have changed in only a few months. At current price if...

I have settled back with the B pads. Gave the A pads a trial run for almost two days. Positive and negatives for both. Still a PITA to change pads. Been reading about the Dekoni Hybrids. Not cheap, but seem like a good option per reviews. Some prefer the Dekoni Velours. Dealers choice. Still...

I think most headphones are overpriced, but as forum users we are suckers for the experience. It's what keeps the hobby alive and fun. Getting new gear in the search for a better or specific sound stimulates the market and takes money out of our bank account. I mean look at how much speaker you...

You make valid points. Already have an Elegia so trying not trying to load up on Focal HP's. Even though I love their looks and sound signature. Ananda was and is still a possibility. Hate their QC and silver grills looks cheap to me. I got these at a reduced cost so didn't pay $599. Even at...
