Really good review - love the layout. If I would suggest one thing - get rid of the animated gif - it's annoying when trying to read (constantly rolling over). Three separate pics (put them in table form) would be much better
@Brooko : Thank you for the kind words and suggestion. I use gifs to cut down on the number of pictures, primarily because Head-fi does not fill the entire browser and can cut-into/rearrange the images based on the user's monitor resolution. But I see what you mean. It does get distracting and I shall swap it out for static images ASAP.
Will you get a chance to test drive these. We would love to read your impressions.
@DJScope : Thanks. It was your review that peaked my curiosity.
@vaibhavp : Thank you and thanks for the heads-up. Pity I won't be able to do a head to head with the
Barely 50% of the browser width is available for the review, what with the ads cutting in with an invisible banner that runs down the length of the page.
I wonder if the everyone sees the only half the table :/
Here's the Titan 1 comparison:
"The Titan 1 is a recently released half-in ear titanium driver IEM by DUNU, that is a solid performer at the price and all around(except isolation). The differences start with the ever-present A73 bass vs the out-of-nowhere Titan 1 bass. Both have a gradual midbass hump but the Titan allows the bass to breathe while the A73 fills the stage and can sound restricted when things get heavy. Both could do with a slight cut in the mid-bass but with different results. The midrange on the Titan 1 is relatively more recessed and thinner. The Titan 1 is more detailed through the bass and lower mids, and is on par in the upper mids. The soundstage is similarly wide(which is excellent for the level of isolation the A73 provides) but the Titan 1 does a better job at sonic space perception. On the whole the space where everything sits feels more natural. The Titan 1 is better at micro-detailing in the highs (especially in busy segments) but the more laid back A73 is no slouch either. As a result the Titan 1 will be relatively more fatiguing during long listening sessions. The A73 with its intimate midrange is better suited for low volume listening that the Titan 1."
