So my cousin and I are grabbing lunch later this upcoming weekend and we both have NW-A306's from Japan. Mine has tested to have the 10db bass issue and his has tested to not have the issue. We plan to do some comparative listening between both devices. In preparation we have shared some normal and Hi-Res FLAC files to do direct comparisons. Should be interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing him and also looking forward to listening to a unit which tested OK to see what I'm missing.

Our intentions were to do a full blown comparison of 7 FLAC audio tracks, some normal and some HiRES using wired ATH-M50's and TIN HiFi T4's but we only listened to seconds of one track and called it a day. That was enough torture for both of us. Any more listening would be beating a
