All I can say is wow. I so got used to listening to my music with my MS-1's, and I am not saying the MS-1's are bad can, but I doubt they will be gettnig much use for the next few months. I haven't even burned in my A900LTD's yet but they already sound so much more refined than my MS-1's. The bass just seems so much more controlled, and it extends a lot lower than the MS-1's.
And such sweet details that I am hearing on a lot of my music. It just sounds like there is so much more high end with the A900LTD's. And I finally know what soundstage means with these also. It is so weird hearing all of the echo in some of the recordings. It just sounds like there is so much more space that the music occupies. The pisitioning is also so much better. It just feels so weird to be able to pinpoint where each of the sounds is coming from.
The midrange sounds a tad recessed, but the increased amount of details is enough for me not to really care.
When I pulled the cans out of their original packaging I was stunned at how good they look. These things really are very beautiful in person and most of the pictures that you can find online really do them no justice. Also the gray/green aluminum housing make the cans look very professional. When I put them on I was just amazed at how comfortable they were, but then I am coming fom grado's so that is to be expected. Also the clamping force with these headphones is exactly right for me. It doesn't clamp down to hard, but it clamps down hard enough not to want to move around a lot. And I think the pads on these are real leather, the are very soft and squishy, but they also look like real leather.
I think the only downside so far with these is that look kinda stupid when you are wearing them, since the earcups are just so big, but the sound great so I really don't care. I am just curious to see what reaction I will get when I wear them around campus, since these cans are going to be my earmuff for next semester.
I am very pleased so far with my A900LTD's and I am very glad that i decided to spring for them and wipe out every bit of money that I got for christmas this year.
