The 332s appears to have far more gain on the volume controls than the 332c. The 332s is not really suitable for low impendance cans because of this as the volume goes up too quickly. The 332c suites my K701 and Superlux hd681 cans better sonically besides the differences in gain. Through the same cans, the 332s is warmer sounding and less transparant than the 332c. Transparancy appeared to improve marginally after 12 hours burn in time though not enough for my personal tastes. As has been said, the 332c appears to have been designed to be much better with lower impendence cans and the 332s for higher impendence cans. It would have been interesting to compare them both with some HD650 cans (I shall have to buy myself some..) |
