Proved that despite its huge size the CD3000 can be shoved down one's throat.

No there isn't, if the details are not there, they are not there, you can excite, or EQ all what you want, if the driver is not able to reproduce those details, you will never get them, they have to be in the recording in the first place, and in the second the driver has to be able to reproduce them....you could add colorations, grain etc...but never details....
BTW Sony has also foam over the drivers, and they are not veiled at all, and OTOH many members had removed that foam on the Senns, trying to get BETTER AND CLEANER SOUND, and the veil still remains there, the veil is inherent of the sound of those drivers...period....what development are you talking about????
This was probably one of the cheapest way they found to cover a driver (as many other manufacturers do) and use it period....
BTW I don't know if this is a success or a failure from Sennheiser, but IMO they develop the 650 based on the 600, and IMO, well at least I was expecting them to correct the flaws of its predecessor, right? And what we get? Same veil, same laid-backness, same sound, with even more quantity of bass, they don't even replaced the cable, after seeing that anybody uses theirs....
Yes, of course there is! There are many ways to artificially add «detail» in audio, one of them is by electronics (Aphex Exciter...), another one is by adding reflections, such as with headphones with attached acoustic lenses (Sony style) specially designed for this purpose, and besides all headphones do it more or less by causing multiple reflections between driver and ear. Sennheiser has tried (with success!) to minimize this effect by using the foam cover, which has the above-mentioned downside to cause a mat coloration instead of a wet coloration resulting from reflections. It's up to personal preference which coloration you prefer, but there's no right or wrong. Of course the added «detail» we're discussing actually doesn't have to do with increased resolution nor with high fidelity. |
