HarmonicDyne Black Hole review of dynamic headphones by ICYGENIUS 🎧
Pros: Excellent build quality and comfort
Very good complete cable with adapter for 6.3 jack
Nice warm neutral tone
Amazing textured powerful and deep bass
Very detailed and neutral mids
The upper mids are not bright or tiring, the vocal part and drums are well revealed.
High frequencies are quite detailed although not too accentuated
The sound stage is wide and well-developed depth
Probably the best over-ear headphones under $100
Cons: Slightly darkened treble response
Introduction!
Hello friends!
Friends, welcome everyone, today in our review we’ll talk about full-size headphones from the Harmonicdyne company worth $100!
And these headphones come in a very large box with a rather nice design, there is an image of the headphones themselves, the name of this model Black Hole and the company logo.

And here, as usual, the technical characteristics of the headphones are indicated and a fifty-millimeter dynamic driver is responsible for the sound, the sensitivity is 110 dB and they have an impedance of 32 ohms, and I’ll immediately say that the headphones are not very heavy for driving and even inexpensive DAC amplifiers cope with them without problems.
And it also says here what is included in the package which we will talk about now and of course we will look at these wonderful headphones.

Let's take a look at what's included!
And they look so chic exactly like the previous models of the company and they weigh a little, only 305 g versus 360 g for my favorite Zeus Elite, but in general this black hole model replaced Athena and I think you remember them.
And since these are also semi-open headphones, they play quite loudly outward, but the tuning and overall sound setup, believe me, it is very different from Athens in a positive way.

And the plastic here, like the Athena, is of good quality, and there are no questions about the assembly, but the external changes, as for me, have been made here for the better, now there are no such mirrored panels that collect fingerprints as there were on the Athena, but on the contrary, there is a strict and consistent black style due to this matte front panel with the Harmonicdyne logo!

And this whole dark concept is complemented by two inserts like this with an unusual pattern, just below there is a marking of the right and left channel and above there is the possibility of adjusting the headband where you can also see the serial number of my model, the headband here has not changed and has a very soft insert like and all models have Harmonicdyne.

Well, the ear pads that are used can already be said to be time-tested by me and they are exactly the same as those of my main Zeus Elite and Athens headphones, I’m glad that they didn’t change them because they are very comfortable, the ears don’t sweat in them, there’s no pressure and no There is no fatigue or desire to take off the headphones.
Accessories!
And the cable here is surprisingly very well made, black braided, does not get tangled, is very flexible and has right and left channel markings on the plugs, and has a 3.5 jack connector with the ability to install an adapter to 6.3 if you need it.
Well, there are also instructions here, although I don’t think anyone reads them now haha.

How do these headphones sound?
Now friends, let's talk about the sound of these HarmonicDyne Black Hole headphones.
And right from the first listen, the first thing that strikes you is the overall very warm tone of the mid and high frequencies. This model does not go into some kind of excessive monitoring and analyticalness in comparison with the Zeus Elite, and unlike the Athena, it now has a smoother and slightly darker neutral the tone of the high frequencies now does not have that excessive brightness of the cymbals and the obvious metallic color, and due to this the timbres are transmitted more reliably and accurately,but if we talk about that very high-end sound, then I think it’s still worth turning to the Zeus Elites for this, since in my opinion they are precisely its best reflection.
But if you have used Athena before and now want to get a more neutral, calm and slightly dry presentation that even reminds me more of the signature sound of Sennheisers, then I think Black Hole is now definitely your choice!

Low Frequencies:
Especially here it is worth praising the work done on the low frequencies, finally I don’t need to use an equalizer since I have enough of them here, they are super massive with a well-developed texture, powerful weight and volume and a very distinct clear attack, they do not sound relaxed and blurred, and we have a well-defined, clear, elastic bass that sounds even more separate from other frequencies, so fans of hip-hop genres and electronics will now definitely be pleased since the kick here is very well defined and has excellent density.

Mid Frequencies:
And of course, the mid frequencies were not deprived here either, and they were noticeably improved, they are now smoother and more correct with better and more reliable transmission of timbres.
And it is especially worth highlighting how the vocal part and instruments are now presented correctly, the vocals themselves are very articulated, legible and clear, and do not sound somehow closed and dull with an intimate location, but on the contrary, occupy a wide focused space, and do not have any excessive brightness and loudness, which is especially important at least for me as a lover of a more neutral and not bright presentation.
And the drums here have quite emphasized transients and a clearly defined attack and leave behind quite long trails of reverberation!

High Frequencies:
And the high frequencies here are presented as very neutral, smooth, without any unnecessary sharpness and additional improvement in detail by enhancing this area, as was done in Athena, and as a result, this range now feels like a very warm and neat, pleasant-to-hear presentation that has a good, albeit not super analytical record resolution from hihats, but now it has received a slightly darker color, due to which there will be a little less air and such obvious technicality, for example, as in Zeus Elite, but unlike Athena, now you don’t have to use an equalizer or adjust anything and you can simply no problem, connect your headphones to the source and immediately enjoy them!
Stage and stereo panorama:
Everything is in order here with the sound stage and stereo panorama, the scene is formed correctly, and the images are drawn quite clearly and in detail, there are no problems with their localization, the depth is at a good and very detailed level.

My conclusion on these headphones:
HarmonicDyne Black Hole turned out to be excellent full-size semi-open headphones with a powerful bass and neutral sound that is pleasant in presentation, but they don’t go much into analytics and monitoring and have more tonally warm musical tuning, but I’m sure fans of such a presentation will definitely be pleased!
