Mission Debrief...
"Well done gentlemen, you carried out your mission well....however...the Kraken Pro was not taken down as planned...
you see, analysis has shown that the KP not only inched it on the 3 types of bass track, but after you dropped your bass payload, the Kraken dusted itself off and started showboating with a new track...which was mighty impressive for any bass can, never mind a 40mm driver bass headphone"
"But sir, our clamping is too strong to allow those bass wobbles the Kraken pulls off, if we can reduce the clamping, we can take him down, I know it.."
"Son...son, even if we did reduce clamping, our analysts forecast that we'd likely match but not necessarily beat the Kraken, but just think about this...
...we put up a can approx 4x the cost and 10mm driver size bigger against the 40mm Kraken and it out bassed us, regardless of any clamping issues.
The Kraken Pro, has IMO, proved itself as a true blue top 10 cannon - and a worthy one at that, not to mention it's trainer,
NewWaveAudio a
shining example to all of how taking a little time to put up and shut up a bass/paper test video can make such a difference and prove to the world your
headphones capabilities - big thanks to
NewWaveAudio for sure.
The bass/paper test is genius in its simplicity yet effective in dispelling
myths as a true visual demonstration of a headphones actual bass impact.
This is not rocket science here gentlemen, nor controversial,
but it is revolutionary and exclusive to The Extreme Bass Club

You see gentlemen, here at Extreme Bass Club, the size of our manhoods are not determined by the performance of our individual bass cans. The tests are to
give a visual display on the bass impact (SPL) on respective extreme basshead headcans of what it can achieve by how it reacts with paper, and is for the sole purpose of creating the most accurate and relevant chart of extreme bass hitting cans on the globe, (having fun with it all is a welcomed side effect
) for the benefit of all that visit here at this thread, here at Head-Fi, and that can only be achieved by using the bass/paper tests objectively, and in this case, the Kraken Pro shows the winner..
This isn't official yet until the general who started all this schiit gets his ass out of bed and takes in the video evidence himself, but I've a good idea he will
be in full agreement on this."
"sir, can I get a cookie or something?"
"*sigh* yes son, go get yourself a cookie.....but a new Cookie Monster looks like it's about to enter the Holy Grail of top ten bass cannons - the 40mm Kraken Pro is about to be deservedly released into it....(unless General HBB orders another godforsaken mission against that beast, though I hope not cos this schiit is done, time to open the top 10 gates for the Kraken Pro methinks")
Mission Completed - Over & Out
