Headphoneus Supremus
I am wondering whether anyone will do a proper detailed comparison between the DT150 and some of the 'high end' closed headphones out there. I'm thinking the Fostex TH series and various T50RP based specials, the old Denon D5000/ 7000, Mcintosh MHP1000, Beyers own T5P and DT1770, closed back Audezes such as the Sine and also the currently popular Oppo PM3 and Meze 99.(EDIT also the Final Audio products which I am quite attracted to) I'm sure there are others. I think the owners or potential owners of these would write off the DT150 as being to ugly or cheap to be any good
Maybe I lack the imagination, experience or the superhuman hearing but I just can't imagine a headphone being significantly better than the Beyer. They just sound perfect to me. i have never found a fault with them, nothing that doesn't sound just right. I think they would do well in any comparison; we British like to support the plucky underdog !
The only higher end closed headphone I've had is my Focal Spirit Classics. They are close in terms of wonderful tone and balance, 'naturalness', but fall well short in soundstage and airiness.
Any thoughts ? I'd like to know what I'm missing !
