So here's something from my side about the Noire X
My first thought when I got it?
Probably too much in the low end again
I'm not a fan of too much..because it's not suitable for long-term listening via headphones
I put it on my head and pressed play.... and then I thought to myself
What is going on now?
The low end of the bass is much faster than the Stealth and the E3...a miracle has happened...after all these years of the bloated range...no sign of it anymore..well done
That's exactly how it should be...not too much...not too less
I don't need to say much about the mids and highs
Here Dan Clark Audio was always been ahead (he only ever had his weaknesses in the low end)
(Except for Corina....these headphones went completely wrong
)
From a purely acoustic point of view, the NOIRE X is probably the best of all DCA models...and that for 999 USD...Unbelievable
(And every acoustician in Europe will see it that way when he listens to this headphones)
Friends Christmas is coming soon..... make yourselves happy and listen to this model...because if not you are really missing something
When I think 999 USD.....I can immediately think of 20 models that cost twice or three times as much and have the disadvantage here
I really can't tell you how happy I am personally....that I finally have a DCA that plays fast/hard and punchy in the low end....and not soft
I wish everyone a lot of fun with the X...or at least a lot of fun getting to know this model
Who would have thought that a model for 999 USD could excite me so much...I would not have thought it before
But unfortunately we live in a world where the more expensive must always be the better
Take your time...listen to the Noire X and you will realize that this is not always the case
NOMAX
PS.plug and splitter looks and feels also better as on the Vivo Cable
