I was fooling around the other day and discovered the EL-8 sounds really nice with an OTL amp. I actually like this pairing better than with solid state. I love the vocals on EL-8 and with this pairing the mid-bass is nice and heavy. Stereo separation and soundstage is nice. EL-8 is not an LCD in refinement. There are some things that could be better, but it's not a bad headphone in any way.
EDM fans will love EL-8.
I would have sworn I saw you share this photo on Facebook -- or perhaps it was just a similar one.
I know you really liked the Focal Spirit Professional, as did I. Do you feel the EL-8 surpasses it in every way? (Not counting tonal balance.)
