My comments were not supposed to sound insulting, and I apologize if they were. I was just curious what your preferences regarding midrange and vocals are, including if you like a lot of treble detail, since the Tape has a ton of treble detail, which is it’s claim to fame.Because i love the Tape's performance on vocals genres i hear, granted, perhaps it was the mids doing the trick and indeed shouty at times that my unsophisticated ears got messed up with the highs/treble.
So, I gather from your impressions that the treble is quite a bit more prominent on the Conductor, as suspected, but perhaps has a bit too much detail/intense treble relative to the EJ07, for your tastes? Have you ever heard the Tape? If so, how is the treble detail compared to the Conductor?To my ears, vocals and treble are unquestionably strong and clear with the Conductor. If anything, it is the "micro-detail" of the treble that I am not certain adds anything essential to my experience.
Also as suspected, it seems neither the Conductor nor the EJ07 is “superior” to the other one, but rather it’s a matter of one’s tastes in treble quantity and detail primarily?
