While the new HPs look fancy and more classic, I still prefer the look of the CA1a. However, since I do not own any (working) circumaural headphones, I might consider getting an Immanis if its sound obviously surpasses everything currently on Earth.
@Aleksandar R. I have two questions :
- Are you planning to release upgraded ribbons to update our existing SR1a at some point?
- I love using my SR1a floating without front padding (about a 1 cm gap at the front) and combining it with my (very big) subwoofer. I am wondering if by doing so, it improves resonances, HRTF, airiness... Also, how much bass is lost from the HPs? Only sub-bass, or am I creating a strong dip up to maybe 300Hz? It depends on the recording, but sometimes it feels even more lifelike/realistic by removing these two big foam pieces.
