On the back of this thread and Malevolent's excellent insights, I tried to source the Denon D9200 but here in the UK it's out of stock everywhere with no guaranteed ETAs.
So I'm trying the Fostex TH-900 Mk2's and I'm liking them. They are glorious to look at and the handcrafted production adds to the enjoyment of ownership IMO.
The bass is effortless and well-executed. Compared to the T5P gen 2's which do have some bass bleed, I don't find it boomy at all. I do however find the treble a bit frizzy on some tracks. I find this surprising as Mother Nature and Father Time have EQ'd my ears for me so I can't hear solid tones above 12khz
Is there a pad rolling solution to tame this without killing the rest of the signature? If I can do this I'll keep them.
