100+ Head-Fier
I just received a pair of AD700's in the mail a couple of hours ago, and have been listening ever since. I just wanted to make a quick post about my initial impressions of these cans.
The biggest surprise has got to be the bass. It is really hard for me to believe that people think these headphones lack bass. I am running the AD700 through a JDSLabs CMOY (with the bass boost off mind you), and I think the bass is spot on; not over powering at all, but present and tight, just the way I like it.
I am coming from some DT770 Pro's, and am really enjoying the detail of the AD700's. This is the first time I have ever listened to an open set of headphones... It is something else.
