Hey guys
Any york fans out there? I hope so. I've been going to the local hifi store to audition headphones and home theatre speakers with the earser album. This may be a hard album to nail with a headphone because of the home made type of samples used and synthesized sound stage.
I listened to nearly the whole album doing A/B with grado SR225 and Sen 650's.
Pretty much they both had problems. The SR225's did not image well at all, nothing had much placement to it especially the vocals. The 650's bass overwhelmed everything else and the vocals were very recessed, ick! [the 20k reference system did not suffer from these probs]
So what do you recommend for doing justice to this album? k1000s? do tell..
thanks
