Looking forward your impressions (possibly with comparisons)

I don't know if the headphones are worth their 350 euros, I've never had headphones in this price segment, but for 250 euros bought new with all the covers and a set of cushions, they play unequivocally cool. With open grilles liked most of all, the resolution is off the charts, finally began to understand what is the scene, volume. All frequencies from low to high on the spot, no chattering, do not crawl on each other and at the same time a solid presentation. Not bassheads, these people will not have enough bass. Picky about recording quality, bad tracks cut the ear. I listen with ifi idsd black lable on turbo mode volume knob at 11-12 o'clock, enough. Finally my ears are free of earplugs

How do I know which version of tres, 16 ohm or 45 ohm? Are there any visual differences or is it written somewhere?

I measured it with multimeter. If you have one for your home use, it works.

Tested the right and left channels with a multimeter, the difference is almost zero, version 45 ohm

I put semi-open cups with black mesh and yellow damper. Played around with the pads, the velour ones sounded the best to me, cleaned up a little carving in the mids, more extended treble and punchy bass. The resolution and stage just gave me goosebumps

continued experimenting with closed cups, trying to achieve the desired sound and use it at home without disturbing my family. Well, they lie idle, and their hands itch. I dug out thick foam rubber dampers that I had once removed from a Marshall monitor, inserted them into the cups and, lo and behold, a space was created, the tightness and excessive pain on the middle ones went away, although it wouldn’t hurt to reduce it a little more. The high frequencies have become so drawn-out and clear, the bass has been tidied up to a reasonable degree. As I understand it, the idea with closed cups is to remove resonance, standing waves, which, when reflected from the walls of the cup, come into conflict, out of phase with the waves going directly to the ears.

Spoiler

Experiments continue

I ordered a green/black cable to match the green/block colour scheme for my SASH Très SE. Although the green of the cable is not the same dark green I am still very content with the outcome:

Cable is built by SkyAudio Cables in the UK, which has a "Litz 5n Silver Plated OCC - 24awg 63 strands per core" set-up.
Brilliant sound and quality and a good match for the Très SE!

Shpongle & Gunslinger - Dreamcatcher (INTERPULSE Remix) It's mind blowing, it's an audio drug. You can't listen to that kind of music on those headphones. Addiction and dependence are ensured. In general, the mod in the closed version almost succeeded, I put black thin mesh to the walls and to them thick dampers from Marshall monitor. I listen and get high in the closed, not disturbing anyone. It's a great audio narcotic

Loving this "portable setup", Ifi Gryphon + Sash Tres. Sounds very good. With xbass on you get nice low end boost with electronic and some metal music.

Got it! Ready within 15/11 - 23/12, pretty fast. Ordered in brownish red, open back, S grills. Looks gorgeous! Very solid and profi make.
Just starting to test. At a first glance with my Schiit Jot 2 Multibit with a stock Sash XLR cable: enough bass for me, exellent highs and mid (vocal), very detailed. Also got extra silver cable. Will try a bit later. Thanks, SAsh!

Happy to finally receive my Sash Tres SE.
I mostly agree with all remarks made in this thread. My personal first impressions:
Wow, they're pretty! Fully satisfied with how they turned out. Moderately heavy, but not really a problem once on my head. Clamping force is quite high, but it proved no problem to me after some adjusting and stretching. The pads are very comfortable and my ears fit completely without touching. The cord is nice, flexible and very little microphonic.
They sound really great; I can enjoy them as they are. And they really adapted fully to my taste with some EQ.
In total they cost me € 540.- and for that amount there are several brand planars available. But I''m glad I ordered these because I'm sure these are of a higher value and will stay that way for a very long time.

The red looks sexy.
