Very nice review @DJScope.
I'm getting pretty hyped for when the headphones get to me!

for those that would rather listen to my impressions (3 days of listening?) of the titan 3 then read it,
here you go! with some comparisons with the titan 1 and hifiman re400
I really love my Titan 1, I think they do everything right. Bass is excellent, but what I find really addictive is the way they bring vocals out front, and the highs – cymbals, snares, etc.
I have some questions about frequencies, and what sounds come from what frequencies.
I am auditioning a set of Byerdynamic DT1350, largely on how Tyll rants about them. He states that the midrange on them is excellent. I thought the vocals I love so much on the Titan came from the mids, but I must be way off base on this? The DT1350 are just plain laid-back compared to the Titan 1. Vocals are distant in comparison to the Titan. Tyll also states that the bass on the Beyer’s is “bottomless”. To my ears, the Titan’s at least match, and I think exceed the bass in depth, though maybe not in quantity.
My question then is, what are the frequencies that I love so much in the Titan 1 that bring out the vocals, or bring them so far forward? I can understand that the highs bring out the cymbals and such, but is the treble on the Titan’s also what brings out the vocals? That does not make sense to me, because I now also have a pair of Beyerdynamic T90, which are known to be very treble centric headphone, but once again, the vocals are way far off in the distance compared to my beloved Titan’s.
What I am hoping to find is a set of portable over, or on-ear headphones that can at least come close to the Titan’s sound sig.
BTW, I am in no way criticizing Tyll, as far as I am concerned he does a huge service with all the reviews and information he offers!
Can anyone set me straight?
Thanks.
