Hi i was just reading over on akihabara and they are listing a new lineup of sony cans:
MDR-Z1000 / MDR-ZX700 / MDR-ZX500 / MDR-ZX300 / MDR-ZX100
the article primarily focused on the z1000 ($730!)
"The MDR-Z1000, targeting audiophiles, features 360KJ/m3 High power neodymium magnet dedicated to reproduce clear and high resolution midrange, as well as removable Jack Cable. It provides an impressive frequency response of 5Hz – 80 000Hz, with an impedance of 24 Ohms, and a sensitivity of 106dB/mW. According to the Japanese manufacturer, the MDR-Z1000 adopts nice ear pad that promises perfect noise isolation."
I would want to see a FR graph before i spend 2x as much as the SA5k and come up with anemic bass again. There is A LOT of high end competition out right now, i hope there's enough rested wallets to do a few meets and comparisons.
all these new cans and no new high end porta-audio sources.
