I'm anxious to find out how it really sounds, the final product.

I sure hope so. It's scary to think you could pay $3600 for a 'non-neutral' headphone. They should pick the most 'accurate' sound, whatever that is.
I just know from the video that Antonio said he was surprised to learn from customer feedback that most people did not like a headphone tuned flat and that they preferred a more “fun” signature.
Like I said, I don’t mind “fun” pads, but for the love of all that is good, let the other set of stock pads be the flat-tuned ones.
I believe that that's quite false perception. That is because their products haven't targeted more high-end users yet. And many users here certainly understand that fun headphones have specific use, but can't be all-rounder.
It's too bad Tyll and his measurements have gone. It's scary to drop 3k-4k without some critical reviews...
Agree. And there are plenty of fun headphone available for plenty less cabbage.I just know from the video that Antonio said he was surprised to learn from customer feedback that most people did not like a headphone tuned flat and that they preferred a more “fun” signature.

Well in the video Antonio said it was going to come with two different pads for different tunings. I’m all for fun, but I really hope one of the pairs has a neutral-flat tuning. Either way, it’s a very good idea to offer those options, the same way the Beyerdynamic DT1990 does.

AgreeAgreed, two sets of different pads is the smart play which doesn't cost a lot to deliver.
Ukrainian e-shop Soundmag has it listed as preorder just for 81 000 грн which is equivalent of aprox. 2660€/$3100. I would like to see this as final price, fingers crossed.
