500+ Head-Fier
Well I picked these up as promised. Here are the initial impressions!
The comfort is much improved over the original Px7’s. The clamping force is much less, and it’s more plush materials. The sound is really really detailed. Like, I have these and the XM5’s from Sony and really it’s not even close. These are closer to the 5909’s from ML. The detail is super.
Lows: tight. Bass is present, thumpy, but very tight. It doesn’t leak at all. Clean and tight. Leans warm
Mids: very warm. But again, crispy detailed clean. Trumpets sound really smooth and crisp. Great detail. A tad bit recessed, but not v or u curve recessed
Highs: a tad bright, but in a good way. Again, crispy. Especially Crisp here. I’d say of all the ranges, a bit more pronounced here, but in a good way.
Soundstage: it’s a closed back anc headphone, don’t expect miracles here. It’s adequate. Detailed, but not gonna blow you away with width or anything. Best way I can describe it is it feels like you’re very much center stage listening to whatever music with literal crystal clarity.
Comparing this to the 5909 from ML? ML has a wider, airier soundstage, it’s just spectacularly wide. But, the Px7 s2 has tighter acoustics. It just sounds tighter. Better detail in terms of overall presentation, if you’re into sounding like you’re right there.
Songs I’ve really hit on so far that made me go wow: 8 Bit Big Band: Rosalina in the Observatory and Gourmet Race. Those blew me away. Sam Cooke’s “Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen” the initial wind instrument is lovely. PTX’s Bohemian Rhapsody was great to notice the separation of vocalists. And uh…just for fun I threw on Welcome to the Black Parade. That was just sonically fun.

while the soundstage isn’t out of your head the separation and space around instruments is very impressive, probably the best I’ve heard from a wireless can. Very impressed so far!
