I have a problem with my etys. At certain songs and volumes the bass gives off a distorted sound. Examples:
Röyksopp - Sombre Detune
Infected Mushroom - Meduzz
Younger Brother - Psychic Gibbon (the heartbeat sounding outro)
I thought the etys were bad and got them replaced but the new pair isn't any better. I use a Sony NWZ-A828 with no amplifier. Can it be that the player isn't good enough? Since my computer's sound card conveniently broke last night I have no other audio source to test with.
Can it really be that I have that bad luck that I get two faulty pairs in a row? The distortion disappears if I lower the volume a bit, but that means I can't listen at a comfortable volume.
The strange part is that other similar songs with a heavy bass sound just fine no matter how loud I play.. Do they need some kind of burning in?
Help me out here
