I've only heard the th900mk2 White Anniversary so I can't compare to original tuning th900mk2 but they did not leave a good impression on me. I felt the bass was lacking without significant EQ and I couldn't help but feel that they were pointless outside of a collector's item because IMO a D9200 or ZMF Eikon were better sounding, better built (looking at those hinges), and less expensive. While an EMU-Teak is IMO a better bass cannon straight out of the box than Anniversary Tuning with the same build (re: hinges and headband) but significantly cheaper. I haven't heard 909s but I've always been interested in them with their current tuning and I would absolutely demo and/or buy a cheaper version of a 909 with current tuning. Changing the tuning to in theory be better across multiple genres which is what I'm assuming was the goal with Anniversary Tuning th900mk2... not so much. But this is all about the th900mk2 when we should be focusing on th909 until the th808s are out!I've never heard the anniversary tuning, I read it improved the mids to make it less v shaped is that right?
Do you find it make it less "fun" sounding?
Genuinely curious because I thought the general reception of anniversary tuning seems to be good no?
