Well...
Since I just pulled another all-nighter - I GOTTA hit the rack SOON.
BUT:
Before I CRASH for a bit, I gotta say that I'm SO GRATEFUL Dan pushed me to stop slackin' off and get my Primes updated to full-Production cans!!
I had pre-production Primes from my initial review...
I was so overwhelmed at the sonic improvements - here's the visual lay-out of my all-night listening sesh (while takin' some notes for my future follow-up
review of the Primes - prob gonna called it somethin' like
Re-Primed!) and I had to put the finishing touches on my CES adventure article for ETM..
Here's what I put my NU Primes through last night + this morning:
Pardon me in advance if this message is fragmented - runnin' on fumes!
But - (and thank God for note-taking - though I remember most of this because it was such a captivating sesh):
I heard an INSTANT improvement in micro and macro-dynamic detail retrieval, which seemed to help enhance the Primes overall soundstaging,
with regard to width, height, and depth. I also noticed, also instantly, the heavier weight and puddle-like ripple of the sub-bass - though its totally controlled.
The mids have more sparkle and dimension, and the highs (which used to be my only issue with the Primes actually - as they would seem rolled-off at times) -
but the highs were wide-open, airy, and extended. Honestly I told Dan it was as if he sent me entirely new headphones!
I'm gonna keep experiencing these with the changes, and a full review coming.
And if I haven't reviewed these here at Head-Fi yet - that's just GOTTA be done!!
cuz these are F____IN' FUN!!!!
