New Head-Fier
I have both and I think they are very similar. I find the Empyreans more comfortable because of the ability to twist the cups though they do fall off more easily. They sound more muffled and the bass is fatiguing after a while and a little exaggerated. I don't find any of the faults in the Utopias that many people talk about but I think that's mainly because I pair them with tubes. I've been switching back and forth for a few weeks now between the 2.Nah, my ears are good. I love both these 2 headphones and enjoy them very much. That's just my experiences with them going back and forth. Do you own both of these headphones ? Do you want to post about what you think the differences are ? Certainly would be interested in hearing your impressions if they differ from mine.
I've been building speakers and subwoofers for a couple of decades now and just starting to get in to headphones. I have a LG FP14,000 Watt clone amp powering my dual 18" subs so I am used to bass.
My comment wasn't meant in a negative way. It's the adjusting that's messed up just what I do when I swap them back and forth.
