All I can say is, I'm rooting for the final tuning being a just *slightly* more fun version of the traditional LCD sound sig. That appears to be the MO among these demi-flagship cans - T90 is a more affordable, more colored version of the T1 with lower impedance; HD700 is a less expensive, more fun version of the HD800 with lower impedance; HE560 is a lower cost, warmer, easier-to-drive variant of the HE-6 sound (BTW I doubt it's a coincidence that the EL8 MSRP is below that of the HE560; capitalism at its finest!)...
...anyone else see this pattern or am I going schizo
In a sentence, I think more people, other than just the ultra-critical, detail-obsessed listeners, are started to get interested in real high fidelity, and the manufacturers are taking notice.
And I couldn't be happier, because I'M ONE OF THEM! ^_____^
I'm unsure whether it's the case that people upgrade from the HD700 to the HD800 to get a lesser fun experience as your comment infers tbh?
Shouldn't it be reverse?
