Nah the th610 is more even with less peaks in the treble if any to my ears. The denon line 5200, 7200, 9200 (edit the 9200 was more bright then the other 2 but just barley) are all more tame as well. ZMF auteur and Eikon are biodynamic drivers and aren’t harsh. I honestly don’t feel the th900 horrible but it is brighter then all those I mentioned. I think the 900 is more fun then any of the previously mentioned headphones and paired with a warm amp and dac are excellent for enjoyment. Currently using a Burson playmate 2 with classic op amps and it’s a wonderful pairing with plenty of grip and control in the drivers. I am selling the conductor 3 reference I just bought and that sounded absolutely stunning with the 900s bringing so much space and air with no harshness at all yet the most dynamic amp I have heard to date. I think it depends on what you our with the 900 in how it’s presents the treble being harsh or just a very detailed sparkle. The thx amps bring some nasty harnesses compared to the amps I just listed as well as the a90 (but the a90 seemed less harsh then the thx amps).Thank the heavens I'm hoping anyone that reads my post can either glean something useful from it about the TH900, or perhaps indicate to me what other headphones might be good for me to look at.
Are the TH900 particularly more harsh then other fostex biodyna driver cans? Or are they generally similar in that regards across the board?
