Has anyone seen the recent review by Dick Olsher of the ASL MG-Head OTL 32-DT and the RSA Stealth in Enjoythe music.com Review Magazine?
Mr Olsher does not like the sound of the Stealth with Grado's, Specifically with the Grado SR-80, he says, "The Grado was completely unrecognizable, as if it had a close encounter with a blood-sucking vampire. Its life energy was completely sucked dry. It sounded bland, polite, and devoid of dynamic nuances."
This is quite contrary to my extensive listening with the Stealth in my system. I have listened using the following phones; Alessandro MS-Pro, MS2, MS2i, MS1, Grado HP-1, SR325i, SR225 Woodies, Senn HD650, and AKG-340 (Headphile Recabled). I have also listened to the Grado GS-1000 and AKG-701's on my system but those are recent purchases and so I cannot really comment. In no case do any of the phones, especially the Grado's, sound lifeless.
Has anyone else experienced Mr. Olsher's mailaisse or do I just have tin ears? My system is listed down in my signature, I do not know what source(s) or the specific music Mr. Olsher was using.
