They are beauties.

You need to get the W2022 on your head if you can! They're truly the best creation we've ever made

Thanks! Yes, they are indeed... The leather is gorgeous... And I am surprised by the sound signature as well.

Ah... the 2022... I missed the demo sessions in Singapore when ATH SG sent out invitations. Oh well...

I went and googled the model, and…. I can’t describe my feelings. But it look gorgeous

Did you see the price yet?

Did you see the price yet?

I did, and hence my feelings. I don’t feel that way usually. I am curious what makes it special beside the aesthetic

I heard it is very balanced and punchy. The WB2022 is also. I couldn’t resist that though even though the price is very high for a Bluetooth.

Give the AW-KG Naru a listen as well. It is also very balanced and punchy. Great soundstage. I will say that I am very impressed by it. Hence, my further exploration beyond the L5000 from @Uncle Wilson from Jaben SG.

Is balanced and punchy becoming the new AT house sound?!

Only time will tell. As long as the vocals remain wonderfully portrayed, I’m good.

Have you heard JVC HA-SW01? Best vocals I have ever heard!

Nice. Can’t say I have. Will keep a look out for it.

What have you heard ?

 

[Halimj7]

The headphones I have heard that have a good reputation for vocals are: Sennheiser Hd600, Mysphere 3.1, Audiotechnica wp900, AWAS, w5000, L5000, WB2022, Final Sonorous X, Denon 9200, beyerdynamic T5P 2nd, Audeze X, Focal Stellia, Ultrasone ED15, B&W p9. What’s the best you have heard for vocals?

I really liked awkt, Susvara, hd650, kennerton planar Ragnir, tungsten DS, I thought d8000 pro LE wasn’t bad either.

I auditioned Susvara and I didnt think Susvara did vocals better than any other TOTL headphone. I would choose Utopia or Elite over Susvara for everything including vocals but I don’t find any of them do vocals better than the headphones I mentioned above and definitely not better than JVC SW-01.

I wouldn’t touch utopia or elites over Susvara on anything, especially a properly amped Susvara. But I won’t deep dive Susvara there is plenty of literature on this subject.

What about bass impact? Utopia is definitely better. Maybe elite also.
