Beyerdynamic Amiron Home (the new T90)

[kman1211]

I own many Beyerdynamic products (T1 2nd, A2, DT1350, DT880, DT1770). Few weeks ago (April 2020) I've contacted the support to ask where to buy spare parts to fix an issue. They answered to contact the italian distributor. The italian distributor didn't answer. I asked Beyerdynamic support for help again, but after days they did not reply, I wrote again and they replied that they had affected another department. After weeks I ask if there are news and after a week no reply.

I also asked if the defect was covered by the T1 2nd 5-year warranty. No answer. This is how Beyerdynamic support is working, if I had known it before I don't think I would have purchased all these items.

To be fair this is also when all the virus stuff was causing all the lockdowns and everything business related is out of whack lately. Been hearing about complaints with other companies support too. Some are definitely handling it better than others of course and it’s definitely regional as well.

Yes, for music in Windows, I use Foobar2000 with the 31 band EQ extension. I play all my music in WASAPI mode.

For Windows itself, as well as gaming, I use EqualizerAPO with the PEACE addon.

If you need helping setting either up, just ask.

At the time when you posted the settings, I uninstalled APO because the volume way too low, even if the volume knob of my E10K reached the max.
But I realised it was the stupid default settings lowering the volume. Now I installed it again and Gain was indeed -6dB...
I do need help with setting them up. Do I have to use the PEACE addon first? I have the equalizerAPO and Peace addon.

First, run and install the Equalizer APO. When you install, right click on it first, and run as "Administrator". After installing, run the "Configurator" file, and select the sound source you want to EQ, and reboot. After rebooting, you copy the Peter's Peace GUI file into the config folder for APO Equalizer in and run it from there. Right click on the PEACE file, and run as "Administrator". Go in and set up your EQ settings. After you have selected your EQ adjustments you want, you click on the "Save" button to save your selection to the folder. You now just minimize Peter's Peace GUI. You now have an easy to use GUI for APO. You can add bands, remove bands, and change the band values quite easily.

I assume I did it right?:

I was only curious why there are more settings from yours than I can use in the EQ.

Select "equalizer one third octave". That gives you a 31 band EQ.

Thanks for the help, appreciate it.

The EQ opens doors to improve the sounds if needed. Which one(s) is it to reduce the painfill "S" and "T" for some headphones aside the 8kHz?

Give my EQ for the Amiron Home a try. This makes the Amiron sound completely balanced and neutral. It also improves the soundstage capabilities of the headphone.

I can't figure it out, why i love the Amiron so much, its sound is so addicting and ..cinematic. I have many higher end models i feel i should enjoy more but for some reason I'm always drawn back to these. The others are great for dissecting music and in a completely different way are more interesting, but none are more enjoyable for my music taste.

The Amiron Home is great and addicting. I know what you mean, I can listen to them all day. Honestly if it wasn’t for the T1.2 Black the Amiron Home would be my most used headphone. The T1.2 Black is different but somehow replaces the Amiron for me.

I need to listen these two so bad

one pair of amiron home was my go-to heaven when I had them. The other one .. meh
Difference? I got the T1.2 in the mean time and the 2nd amiron home was used. Pads and headband were less then par for me.

I think that the Amiron Home does something unique,
which is that it has a mellow, rolled off high end
while remaining very detailed.

IME these two aspects or characteristics rarely occur
together.

The T1.2 Black does it as well, it's actually little more mellow up top than the Amiron Home and a bit more midrange forward and a little warmer and rounder in the mids. The Amiron Home is a bit bigger in the bass, slightly less midrange, and does have more sub-bass presence. They do rarely occur, and thats why the T1.2 and Amiron Home are some of my favorite headphones I've ever owned.

Yeah, something makes the Amiron Home very special. I had two other headphones on the list to buy but it's been put on non-active, also because I can't justify the prices.
Recently I upgraded to Fiio K5 Pro and the Amiron Home is like a whole lot more vivid! It makes the Home addicting too. So far the Amiron Home, Wireless version and T5p.2 are my most favorite headphones ever!

Beyerdynamic surely knows how to make headphones and the most important: the comfort. The Amiron Wireless is 400gr and it's feel like there is nothing on my head. What kind of sorcery does Beyer use?!

There is also one thing about the Home version: the voices are very realistic. Not too loud and not too low, just at the exact dB to explain it.
