AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone
May 8, 2017 at 9:52 PM Post #1,218 of 5,483
For those that have heard both the Aeon and Mad Dog 3.2 is there a major step up with the Aeon? The reason I ask is I have no frame of reference for the MrSpeakers sound besides the Mad Dog and just curious what kind of upgrade or differences I should expect. I know it will be better but not sure if it's night and day if you factor in law of diminishing returns. Yes, subjectivity plays into it but some things are obvious and plain enough.

Why won't this new forum subscribe me? Even though boxes are checked?

I haven't heard the Mad Dog in probably 2 years, but from memory, they're very different sounding cans. The most obvious thing is that the Mad Dog I heard was extremely dark and this is very well balanced.

Specifying a different number shouldn't affect the way they sound.... If what I read a few pages back
Can anyone compare AEONs to Denons D7200? I think D7200 are great, very balanced cans with a touch of warmth and great soundstage.

Might be a bit tricky getting an answer.... Aeon's not even shipping yet.

I've heard the Aeons at CanJam extensively. These things are the real deal, I'd say the Aeons are possibly one of the most realistic sounding closed back headphones I've ever heard.

So I assume things are on track for May 15th or so ship date for pre-orders?

(I don't want to jinx it like that other guy did before the delay was announced...:smirk:)

Since it is a weekend, I suppose it will be Ot to prep for Monday the 15th on shipment. Who knows, maybe the cases will be in Friday the 12th.

Jinxed
