See my woes with open-air Senn HD580s, noisy house and picky brother for the 'best sound possible' out of the Sony EX70...
If you say the 'best case' I think it makes comparisons almost moot--you take the AKG K501 and amp it with the most bass-heavy amp out there and call it perfect and everything else bloated, and you try to find just the right amp to amp *really* bloated cans like the EX70 (or do what I do
) and call everything else 'thin'...
Seems to me using a neutral source / amp combination instead should be the answer.
I do believe that it is possible to characterize the sound of the can However, IMO it should be done on the basis of the best sound possible out of the can (be it the best amp for its use, the best interconnect, or the best position on the head). |
