Can anyone compare Aeons with Beyerdynamics T5p (2nd Gen)? I'm torn between the two. They are about the same price here.

 

[MR. Hmm]

Can anyone who have tried both the Ether C Flow and the Aeon comment on how the isolation from outside noise differ between the two models?

 

[MattTCG]

Isolation between EFC and Aeon is very close. Too close to call.

Approaching 100th hours.. Really enjoying the balanced sound across the entire frequency range.

I'm pleased to announce AEON won an Alfie award for best Ear Gear at the LA Audio show!

was it a pre-production or production model at the show?
since diff earpads might sound a tad different even w/ same drivers.

you can check out the isolation graphs, looks like Aeon wins by a few decibels in most areas.

As much as I respect you and your work, I'll have to say I can't take your word. You claim audible changes in the sound from your headphones that can not be measured? Sorry, I don't believe in magic. Pass me a DUM cable.

PS Very much enjoying my Aeons.

Just wanted to bring to light that much of what we experience through our senses cannot be objectively measured. Think pain, scent, taste, etc.

Finally got the shipping notification! Very much excited to give these headphones a real good go. I have a feeling these would pair particularly well with the Corda Classic.

It's expected to reach Sydney on Friday, which would be quite the achievement if that happens! unfortunately I am going to be interstate until Sunday night, but then on Monday it's public holiday here, so I will likely spend it with the Aeon glued to my head...

Will try to post my own comparative notes - vs the PM-3 out of an AK240 as a portable setup, and vs PM-1 and HE-500 out of a desktop setup. I'm still not sure in which setup it would be a better fit.

We don't discuss future products...

This looks like a confirmation that Aeon open is a future product...

 

[LaCuffia]

What is your order number? Still waiting for mine - ordered on April 9th.

Thanks...Maybe mine will ship tomorrow.

They "don't" discuss future products cause they don't wanna detract from current sales.

If they announced the open back version will be out in four months, it would hurt sales of this version.

Grumble grumble. It'll take till next Wednesday to reach Perth (also shipped this morning).

The wait's been a bit of a bummer, but the service has very much impressed (sending out the pads after the fact based on feedback). The thought that these will be a better and fuller version of the Ety/K701 sound sig I like is pretty exciting.

Well, I didn't read the many pages of thread here, but it would interest me to own a headphone that is of a closed back design make the grade. After all, many times that I am using headphones, it is for the purpose of some privacy. Even tonight as I was listening to music, I was also listening the air conditioner running about 10' away.
