That was probably an exaggeration...but the sound from the 6241s to the move and my 650s just sounded a lot like the sound from an unamped Grado 125--when I first listened to them, it was eye-opening...then after 20 minutes I had a headache and my ears hurt.
I liked the detail, but I was forced to turn the crossfeed on to rest my ears and even that didn't help that much. Not used to my 650s being so bright is all...'twas a shocker! But again, they were bright because of the combination of the slightly warm Move amp and the (apparently) warm 6241 DAC in the D1. The 6241 sounds great by itself in the D1 DAC, don't get me wrong!
