My Utopia 2020 finally came today. This is my 2nd time owning Utopias. I’m using the XLR cable that came with the headphones. Also, mDAVE into a WA33 EE JPS.
First quick impressions, I’m not super impressed.
I’m going to try the Abyss Superconductor with it later. I used to have the Lazuli Reference with my 1st pair of Utopias, and I really liked them.
This is my first time using the Utopias with my WA33 EE JPS. It’s been a while since I had the first pair, so take that into consideration with what I’m saying next. I feel like the bass quantity and soundstage are much better than I remember them with my old setup (Hugo 2 into LTA MZ2 and standard WA33).
I need to break this new pair in (both with the headphones and for my brain) to see what the Utopias are really like. At the moment I feel they do not do anything better than my other headphones (see my signature). I hope my opinions change. At a minimum they are probably a good pair of headphones to use on the go.
I might pair them with that new Naim headphone streamer/dac/amp and put them next to my bed. That would be a pretty good and small setup. I imagine I can take all that with me when I’m traveling. Maybe
