The solution to that is, instead of making more noise, refraining from posting until you have something valuable to add to the discussion.
Sorry ahead of time for the noise!
I gotta say - it used to be my Mad Dogs that never left my messenger bag when I got em - I prefer open-back orthodynamic cans whenever possible - but now it's the Alpha Dogs
that come everywhere with me.
And - I tried to find the post but must've overlooked it:
Somebody was wondering if an owner of both the AD's and MD's would consider stepping back down to the MD's - because he thought the MD's might be better for the style of music he prefers...
I love the Alpha Dogs because thus far, they've done extremely well with everything I've thrown at them - from Coltrane to Burial!
That's also one of the reasons I gave em a
Writers Choice Award (just scroll down to my awards to see my bit on the Alpha's)
I loved/love the Mad Dogs for the same reason - but to me there is a wonderful airy-like quality to the Alpha Dogs,
much like the Mad Dogs - except things seem better controlled overall WITHOUT sounding too polite, too safe,
too audiophily! The bass response is dynamic and punchy like the MD's - but seems more refined to me - possible because
of the increased rigidity in the new 3D-printed earcups (who knows). The highs are clearly defined, and trail off naturally.
NOT that the Mad Dogs ever sounded Audiophily to me (which most of the time means safe, polite, and unexcitable)
but the Alpha's take everything to another level to my ears - especially their mid-band coherency and fluidity.
If I heard em both now - I'd probably go for the Alpha Dogs - but that's a touch choice to make!!
First-world problems I guess.
