Got my AFC in yesterday! I've let them burn-in overnight with 30 minutes of pink noise and 4x Lindsey Sterling's Crystallize at 50% of my R2R-11's knob on repeat. Had them on to quickly test before hand, bass was definitely anemic and missing that response you'd find on closed headphones and the detail was a bit messy at first. Got home today after they've been on burning in for the last 15 hours and gotta say, bass is definitely more responsive now and I'm wow'd by the details in mids and highs, much better separation and airiness.
When people compare them to the HD650, they weren't wrong saying its like a super version of it but without the veil. These aren't on my Eikon's level and have a different presentation compared to the LCD-2Cs but as a portable study setup for the near future, I'd say these are a ****ing great pair of headphones.
