500+ Head-Fier
Just received the pulse (standard). No problems setting it up as I already have the GOs. First impression, bright as hell and not loud. Oh, it has gain settings and if you use fubar also digital filters. Both problems addressed. Still a little bright but the bass came on very nicely. As it burns in in liking it more and more . It is harsh , but relaxing slowly. Congested, but opening slowly. All burn in associated things from my experience. Fantastic power and detail for its price point. I don't see the glare going away completely but I'm just guessing. I do see the soundstage opening up. Already moments of wandering through passages and textures . In the 1st day. If the glare does not calm down enough for the he560 I'm sure it will for the darker ZMF vibro. The bass slams like thunder in those right now but it's a little shrill. Just a hair. Something I never thought I'd say. So naturally I can finally see why some people find the 560 peaky in the treble. I don't even want to hear Senns on this right now, cuz their treble is quite hot to my ears. Hoping for the best after burn in is complete. I have read the burn in is crucial for the pulse. I see promise and ability . For now it's asking as many question as its answering.
