so if money was not an issue, would u all agree for rich warm not fatiguing signature with great bass with good soundstage the denon 7000 is the way to go or the th900
i dont remember exactly but i read somewhere both has piercing highs
all i want is a real upgrade to my audeze lcd2 rev2 to work with my ifi micro dsd and alo mk3
"piercing highs" is a very loaded term. I prefer brighter headphones like beyer and grado, but for some music the sony's are very good. Modern pop. like Bastille, Meghan Trainor, Chrlii XCX, Ariana Grande, sounds better to me on the Z7s. Classic rock, Queen, Grateful Dead, Dire Straights, Bruce Hornsby, all sound better on the DT-770s, but certainly sound smoother, boomier, and less detailed (probably just less bright) on the Z7s. For classical I prefer the open grados.
There is no "one headphone to rule them all", unless possibly you get into the stax or abyss or high end audeze. Even then, different music, moods, and location may dictate different headphones.
If you want a smooth, warm, thick, boomy (when needed) sound in a relatively comfortable headphone, the Sony Z7's might be for you.
Also, "u" ain't a word
We don't charge by the letter here, so you can use all three letters for that word! :
