The Super Audio 5000's have arrived.
Boy are they weird looking. I've seen pictures, but it's not what I was expecting. The super-wide headband is actually a tad uncomfortable for me, despite hte manuals claim that it is wide to be comfortable. I'm sure I'll get used to it.
As to the sound -- they're not burned in yet, so take this with many grains of salt.
My immediate reaction was -- these are sound REALLY thin. Where's the bass? But after a couple of minutes I was struck with how unbelievably fast these headphones are. I am listening to Close to the Edge and the precision and tightness throughout the sonic spectrum is pretty unbelievable.
Brightness? Haven't noticed it yet.
