I'm not a person to follow folks of audio like those guys in Schiit blogs, but I would be interssted in knowing more about He Binwu. I realized at the some point. He was the one I wanted to know much more about. Info about him is so damn scarce.Yup, He Binwu was the project lead back then for the HE-500 and HE-6 and is a co-founder of Hifiman (listening to my HE-500 while typing this ). Later, he had health issues, so he had to take a step back from his role but is still with the company according to Dr. Fang: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/a-m...president-and-ceo-hifiman-electronics.892634/.
One of the bigger difference between OG HE-6 and SE is the bass. Classics presents bass in regards to impact really really well. Like Resolve says, the measurements cannot distinguish that aspect. I have noticed this about bass measurements. It's like macrodynamics, you won't see it in measurements.
It's at the top of the totempole for open-back bass. It's very good quality. It's rare to get such bass quality on a open-back.
