Agreed. However, I don't think that any coloration is good for pro audio applications. While it is true that you can never end up with too bright sound using V6, it is also true that one may cut too much high end energy. Also V7506 (and V6 if it is the same) has an audiable lack of midrange. Thus the end mix can be midrange thick. To me the ideal solution is flat and IMO HD 280 come considerably closer to fully flat response than V7506.

Consider the nature of the term "forgiving"...it means that you can commit "sins" (such as "really eqing the highs up") and they will be "forgiven"! Exactly my point about the 7506...their analytical nature won't let you commit the sin to begin with! Eq the highs too hot and your ears will BLEED! This is absolutely a good thing for PRO AUDIO! |
