    Ultrasone Edition 8

    Quote:   I can't comment on what genres the ED8 are not good at...but I can say for what I listen to (latin jazz, salsa, mambo, big band latin, classical) it brings the instruments to life around my head.   And since having the FiiO E7 amping the ED8s, I am in a different world!

    Denon AH-D7000 Appreciation Society

    Quote: So far, the stores in Hong Kong have not got the D7000s for demo...and I've been to a majority of them. On Headfonia, been told the D5000 were a bit dry on the treble end....but they weren't sure about the D7000s having this issue.   To hear that they are NOT that bassy is...
