After a big listening session i have made decision put down a deposit and should have my cans in 2 weeks .
The guys at A2A are really great when i got there i told them i was still very keen on HE-6 the salesman i usually deal with got on the phone and organized someone to bring a pair in so i could listen to them as well top service in my opinion .
Here is my personal opinion of the headphones i listened to , all really good ,but with all headphones they have good and bad points i will list why i didnt buy certain headphones again this my personal opinion everyone has different tastes and i have never reviewed anything in my life .
HD 800 which i asked to be hooked up to warm tube amp because the last time i listened to them they were to bright in the highs .Hooked up to the tube amp the highs were better not as bright but not enough impact in the mids and lows for my taste .
TH 900 I found the mids to be a bit thin and highs a bit bright .
LCD3 I found the lows with fast double bass drum to be a bit muddy and losing some detail .
LCDX I thought these were a lot clearer and cleaner sound than LCD3 but still did not really stack up to finally choice .
HE 1000 As some have mention in other threads i found the mids to be a bit recessed and could not justify the price compared to what i went with .
HE-6 The only headphone that put a smile on my face really enjoyed them so they are going to order me a pair for a price i can get a secondhand pair from the states when you convert usd to aud ,shipping and import charges .I thought it had the best mids out of all the ones i listened to and best overall sound for METAL .Now i just have to find a good amp to drive these i think i have a whole lot more reading to do .
