Technics EAH-T700 - An Impressive High-End 2-Way Headphone
Actually, the frequency range is 3 – 100,000Hz. I own these now and can attest to tight, dynamic bass response.- fuzzytalz

Technics EAH-T700 - An Impressive High-End 2-Way Headphone
Took delivery of these on Friday and have been listening throughout the weekend. To put my observations in perspective, I love detail–my favorite cans so far (without EQ) are the Audio-Technica ATH-M70x [I've owned quite a wide range of headphones from the Audeze EL-8 (open back) to...- fuzzytalz

Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 and Wireless!
Yeah, the remote looks better, and probably is easier to operate by feel with its contouring, but I'm listening almost exclusively from the AK100II these days which is incompatible with either remote and has its own external physical controls, so the functionality of the iDevice/Android remotes...- fuzzytalz

Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 and Wireless!
Bluetooth range is claimed 30 feet. Momentum Wireless plays perfectly well, sans NC, without power thanks to the supplied cable. Terrific sound quality.- fuzzytalz

Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 and Wireless!
I've been comparing my Momentum Wireless to my B&W P7 all weekend, both driven (via cable) mainly from my Astell & Kern AK100II (although I also play a few dynamically challenging tracks through my iPhone 6 out of curiosity to see if my observations held–which they did, except that the iPhone is...- fuzzytalz

I ordered directly from Sennheiser. $450 for the wireless. Free ground shipping; $10 3-day select shipping. You can now order the entire lineup directly from Sennheiser.- fuzzytalz

Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 and Wireless!
Just got my Momentum Wireless this morning and have been listening to them the past three hours. With wired listening (haven't charged it up yet, and honestly I'll only used powered operation for noise cancellation) relative to the original Momentum (over ear), soundstage is noticeably (though...- fuzzytalz

More sparkle in the trebles....faster bass....what exactly do you personally love about the NAD HP50?- fuzzytalz

Review: NAD Viso HP50
The HP-50, to me, aren't a viable portable headphone for two reasons: 1) The earpieces are quite bulky and conspire with the squared headband to produce a headphone that is quite conspicuous–on par with my Denon AH-D600. 2) HP-50 construction isn't very durable. Even with light usage...- fuzzytalz

Review: NAD Viso HP50
I have normal sized ears, and the Momentums are snug, but comfortable enough to wear for a few hours continuously. If I wear glasses while listening, that drops to about 90 minutes max before the caliper pressure causes the contact point of the eyeglasses to become painful. I can imagine those...- fuzzytalz

Review: NAD Viso HP50
This was precisely my experience: The Momentums displayed not only superior tonal balance and dynamics, but construction as well (NONE of the creakiness and micro phonics that plague the HP50's listening experience). What's more, the Momentums scale up better, allowing them to be enjoyed equally...- fuzzytalz

Review: NAD Viso HP50
I respectfully disagree. The PSB M4U1 (also voiced by Paul Barton based on "Room Feel" principles) sound virtually the same (a very slight bit less bright), but with much more robust and quieter construction. At the same $300, those are the giant killers. For anyone able to get comfortable with...- fuzzytalz

Review: NAD Viso HP50
The only downside to the NAD Viso HP50 is that, structurally, they are a bit creaky, and those annoying microphonic intrusions find their way into the music. If only more care had been given to structural integrity in their design...I'd have kept them. Because the sound quality, generally, is...- fuzzytalz
