A few songs in...
DAT bass. I don't know what changed from this one and the one loaned to me last time, but DAMN man. This is what I expected the MD to sound like. I don't feel these are lacking bass, whatsoever.
I can FEEL the seal this time.
I may have to rewrite my whole review of them, because these are DEFINITELY a step above what I remember last time.
The treble still sizzles a little more than I'm used to, but it's not fatiguing, just a little bit of zing. They are still voiced on the darker side of neutral, but the treble doesn't sound rolled off or anything. Still well balanced, and full bodied.
I'm very pleased atm. Can't wait to give them a thorough spanking.
I feel Dan didn't hold back with this pair, AT ALL. Cherry picked one hell of a pair, lol.
All I know, is that if I had these the very first time around, I would've been singing a very different tune. They do sound quite...well....DAMN good.
One thing I quite easily noticed is how well textured the tonality is, from the bass to the mids. Like... usually, you have to give up some fullness to allow texture to come out. The MD sounds textured and full at the same time. LOVE that.
