I'm auditioning the headphones this week and my initial impression was lots of mid-range detail but overly dark for my tastes. Today after two hours streaming Bob Marley from Tidal out of a Fostex HPa8 and comparing to Audeze LCD-X and on-ear Momentums I wasn't very happy. Sounded closer to my unmodified Fostex T-50RPs and then I used my Astell and Kern AK-100 II and the Oppo's came to life -- big time. Not as full a sound as the LCD-X but close enough especially if you don't switch back and forth. Way better than the Momentums for the first time. Not sure what's happened here but the testing goes on
