    Tripowin Olina vs Shuoer S12 or something else? Or should I swallow the cost and buy a tribrid?

    Hey, I'm kinda stuck. I didn't like my ThieAudio Legacy 3 and want to upgrade to another IEM. What I disliked the most was lack of detail and treble. Without EQ they sounded bloated AF to me, after Qudelix 5K + AutoEQ to Oratory target they sound good but the general technicalities aren't...

    Can A Graph show IEM Soundstage: maybe so!

    I ran across this: https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=159192.0 Which is actually Rtings.com's scheme to measure heapdhone stage. Obviously this is intended to apply to big over the head headphones. Still, I applied this theory to IEMs I've listened to and have graphs available and...

    What are three Good 'Schiit-Grade' First IEMs (with Soundstage!) to try?

    Title pretty much says it all. I'm new to everything, wanting to try IEM's to see if I like 'em. I tend to go for the entry to mid-grade stuff that punches above it's weight class initially while I get a feel for stuff. Then if I upgrade to something else or try something else I have a...

    Something similar to Nightowls but with better 1.2 khz to 10 khz response

    Looking to upgrade from my Audioquest Nightowls, cans with superb sound and sublime soundstage, but that factually suffer in the upper midrange (?) to lower treble regions. Recently I tried the Ultrasone Signature Studio, but man, they were super harsh to my ears. I am returning them as I type...

    Liquid Platinum tube amp & AKG K702: Tubes for soundstage?

    I am in pursuit of the ultimate wide soundstage setup. To that end, I picked up a used K702, and it's already incredible. But yesterday I also snagged a good deal on a Liquid Platinum tube amp. It's my first tube amp, so I'm very much a tube newbie, but it's my understanding that there are tubes...

    suggestion? good: mids, discants, soundstage, use:computer, phone. over ear, closed.

    Hi, I had a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 931 250 Ohm that I liked. They deteriorated at the end and did not produce as good sound as when I bought them. Now I'm looking to buy something similar but closed if it is possible. My budget is around 200$ or 200Euro. I would like to be able to drive them...

    What do you prefer more: frequency response or imaging/soundstage?

    I prefer frequency response more than the spatial qualities of sound. Which one do you prefer?

    Sennheiser HD820 Planar Magnetic Equivalent?!?

    Howdy! Does anyone know if there is a closed-back planar magnetic equivalent of the Sennheiser HD820? I'm specifically looking for a similarly wide soundstage and equally great imaging. The HD820s sound great (to my ears at least), but I'm wondering if I could get a bit more clarity/separation...

    Best Music for Large Soundstage Headphones

    I have a couple of good "medium soundstage" cans, the Neuman NDH20, and the Grado RS1e. For me, coming from the non-hifi world, their staging(size and accuracy) was very impressive and enjoyable. I'm currently saving up to buy an HD800 S so I can hopefully experience that sensation taken to it's...

    Questions regarding Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro (and Soundstage concept)

    After doing some research for a high quality PC in-depth sound experience, I came across the Beyerdynamic DT 1990 Pro’s. Just for the record, I’m completely new to the Hi-Fi concept. I need some help clarifying these headphone’s qualities before I make the commitment (since I can’t find a place...

    Is soundstage actually detrimental to spatial audio?

    So the notion of soundstage being a property of headphones certainly has a lot of substance behind it, and indeed, even untrained ears can anecdotally easily perceive this. However, the theory behind is rather confusing to me. Since soundstage seems to be related to the openness of headphones...

    Closed back, neutral, large soundstage

    Heya, I want to try something more dense than my current SRH1540, something with better isolation, sub bass extension and low distortion. My current DAC is the Opus#11 (awesome dac for the size). Budget is around 500-ish USD, could go a little higher if it's really worth it. Thanks in advance! :)
