100+ Head-Fier
Wonderin if anyone is using the same rig as me, as I have a question relating to this gear.Cambridge Audio 500D se, ASL Head OTL,Senn HD-600. I have had the cans for about 2 months and have noticed that most of the music sounds muffled or to describe it better, it sounds like the music is being played through a "wet wool blanket". I upgraded to the Cambridge after listening to a 10 year old Yamaha, but this sound is still there!.I have also changed out the stock Sovteks for Teslas and kept the stock Ei 12ax7. I have the stock headphone cable and Wireworld AtlantisIC's. Is this "laid-back" sound a trait of the Senn's or the Head- or both?. The better recorded c.d.'s don't sound as bad, I have a lot of mediocre sounding discs that I listen to. Good recorded discs, it seems to me are hard to find. Maybe I should just listen to better discs? Hope this whole thing makes any sense and hope you have some ideas. Thanks. Huck
