500+ Head-Fier
I just EQ the NA2. The sibilance dip is too deep, it's one of the wonkiest cymbals i've heard. If you fix this, you don't need to "upgrade" it to none of the other NF's single DDs.I think I can help with a very amateurs review as I've heard both NA2 and NM2+.
I use the NA2's with my Sony Zx300. I absolutely love them!
I use a silver balanced cable in the 4.4mm jack to brighten them a tad as the overall sound from the NA2, especially when paired with the Sony zx300 is warm. I too love that bass! It digs really deep whilst also remaining nice and tight. Sub bass in particular is a joy to my ears. All in all, I just love their overall sound signature. Paired with my Sony, I get a lovely warm immersive feeling. And no, I can't stand Beats headphones, lest you think I'm just a bass head that will take horrible boomy bass.
My daughter was after some IEM's for mastering. Knowing she'd want something fairly neutral, but at the same time able to hear plenty of detail, I bought her the NM2+ after reading reviews on here. They are definitely 'brighter' and more 'analytical' than the NA2. She uses them on her Mac using Logic Pro and they tick all the right boxes for her. I compared them on my Sony Zx300, and the NA2's are definitely more 'musical' to my ears, as in much more enjoyable.
In summary, if you already like the sound of the NA2's, I'd recommend saving your money and just go with them over any of the + models. They sound incredible to me for the price. I can't see you being disappointed.
