REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!
Apr 23, 2011 at 4:21 PM Post #391 of 2,116
Ahhh, I see what you are saying, I'm not used to waiting a month to receive things I ordered. According to the Russian tracking site, it says that its being delivered to the addressee and that was as at April 20 and the location was St. Petersburg which leaves me very confused because the prior update to that said it had left the sorting facility.
 
Like you said, I am just being impatient, and I guess it is from reading everyone's impression of the phones especially those who ordered after me and have received theirs...
 
These are my first headphones so you can only imagine how anxious I am to get my hands on them...

iSkullz, I had the slip that the letter carrier had left in my box. You have to sign for them and I was at work when they tried to deliver them. Hoping yours arrive soon.


 
Thanks, for your reply. A letter carrier? hmmm I thought these would come through USPS... well I haven't seen
any slips so I guess they haven't been to my place yet...
 
Well the waiting continues....

Had a listen to them today.  Bass was amazingly impactful and impressive.  If you want an open phone for watching action movies, this is it.  Period.  Perhaps the most powerful bass I've heard in an open phone.  Not the best quality but it is good solid bass.  Unfortunately the synergy w/ my DACPort made the treble too colored and bright for my tastes.  I'd call the treble Ultrasonish+.  I would prefer warmer gear to synergize w/ the FA011 myself.  Hifiman might be solid for these but didn't get a chance to try.  If I do I'll report back.

I wonder how the FA-011's bass and treble compares to the DT990, which seems to be the one to beat in terms of open headphone bass. The DT990 has the best bass I've heard in any headphone, period. Strong, yet clean, and well textured. No boominess.

I'm curious to hear that comparison as well.

What happened to your D7K MLE?

Right driver blew, I think. On certain songs or certain passages, it distorts/crackles. Tried it with gaming as well. It does the same.

Perhaps this is what happens when you listen to beats by Dre w/o Beats by Dre?

did you accidentally kill it, or did it spontaneously die without explicit abuse?


I used it the same way I used all my headphones. Freak accident, I'm sure.

Anaxilus...

but ok :wink: ... Hopefully you can get a replacement, although clearly it'll take about a month if not more and $20-30 in shipping. :frowning2:

Yeah. It's a good thing my HE-4 arrived on the day I shipped the D7000. I would have been stuck to just my KSC75... not that it bothered me much. I was enjoying them ever since my D7000 messed up. But I'm enjoying the HE-4 that much more. :D

Hmm, so I ordered these on March 24th and now I'm starting to wonder if I'm going to get them before I move out of my apartment this coming Friday.
