Both are fine ways of achieving similar goals and I'm glad you were happy for your 7 some odd years of ownership. And I'm also glad to report that I'm happy right now.

It is not a matter of being artificial or not, is a matter IMO of what you like, indeed you will never know how the recording is supposed to sound like and trust me that all recordings are artificial in one way or another...the CD3K needs help in the low octaves (as many other headphones I have heard, with just two or three exceptions) how to boost those if it is not equing, I do not have any other suggestion, IMO there is absolutelly no other way!!!!

You're now contradicting your signature by not only stating YOUR opinion, but choosing what Azure will/will not hear, and whether or not he will be satisfied with whatever it is that you choose him to hear. |
He stated what he wants, FYI we have crossed a few emails (which probably you are not aware) and I know exactly what he wants, and he seems to be after the same I was after...and not after what you are after...he wants more bass out of the CD3K in that region, not an slightly better performance due to any tweak. That change is not achivable via any tweak I know off...Not sure if you have a secret one...and no, no flat amp will make you hear a bass out of the CD3K equivalent to the bass of the R-10 or Edition 9, sorry to disagree on that...

I am perfectly content with the amount of bass and impact my CD3000's provide without any type of bass boost and it looks like a few other respected members of this forum feel the same way. Also, the sarcasm is not needed. I only stated my opinion, and you stated yours. Politely accepting our mere dissagreement on the matter would have been a much more mature method of dealing with the matter. And please. You are not omniscious, even when dealing with (y)our precious CD3000's, so don't pretend to be. |
You are, that is fine, he is not, and I was not, so what? And I do not care too much of what the
respected members like or not (following a few of those
respected members, I have wasted a lot of money already in BS...) Also a lot of
respected members like things that I do not, so I stopped following
respected members advices blindly, and I suggest you to do that same, and do what I do from now on, the only
respected members I follow from now on, are my
respected ears...period!!!
You preffer one thing, we preffer another, your earing is not better than ours for that, simply different...
Who preffer the CD3K with no bass boost, likes a lean bass sound and period, the CD3K needs bassboost to preform its better...sorry to disagree for 101th time, and no I do not pretend to know all about the CD3K, all I know is that you are hearing an incomplete and uneven spectrum right now, if you are not using a bassboost, and you are missing around 3db in the lower bass region right now, that is for sure!!!! I was just trying to help him and avoid him to spend in BS mods that will take him nowhere...
IMO stock is fine
with bassboost...and will give you what you need...period...now you can keep on enjoying your mutilated uneven spectrum, and suggest others to do it as well, or being realistic and try the bassboost like a man!!! and listen the fullness of what the sound should be!!!!!
(j/k OK?)
