I haven't checked their FB page in at least a week, so it was helpful to me.
yeh no need to dig him out and he did actually post the whole PR which i have not come across on here yet.
Thanks for the post ericp!
X2 .. You're welcome Swimsonny (oh, that other stuff is about to post soon. Won't mention it on this post. I'll inbox you).
cn11, I'm in need of more impressions. Tell us what you think!
Yeh CN11 i would not mind some more impressions as well but no pressure if you need more time. Did you make the transition from the original to the 1.2?
Okay, look forward to it!
Well I'm not really noticing much in the way of changes through burn in, but I am liking them more and more the longer I have them. I do still think they're a bit on the dark side if not EQ'd, but once a touch of high treble is added they pick up a decent level of shimmer and detail (so it can be coaxed out of the driver). Other than that, the rest of the range is golden! Controlled yet bottomless bass, wonderful well placed midrange. And there's the big wide soundstage, great depth, height, and placement.... and a real naturalness to the overall tone. By comparison tone is something my MG6Pro's really struggle with. They sound kind of weird and plastic-like in the vocals after listening to the ASG-1.2, and also have a big midrange spike which is borderline painful! I know there has been discussion of a slight midrange peak even with the revision on the ASG-1.2, but I don't find it bothersome at all, especially after the midrange knife on the FS customs.
Dem! The WOOD!!!
This is just a thought, but does any one a bit knowledgable know if the material used in the plate can affect the sound as it will change resonance and things, no? Or am I just being daft and under the wood or metal will be a layer of the main housing material of the same thickness?
Oh and the wood looks gorgeous!
Hmm this is very interesting. That is what i sort of suspected if their is the same material underneath.
