Just modded, and the difference is huge. The bass pounds a lot harder. They are a lot louder, and the sound quality is also improved.
Respect to NewWaveAudio for making the effort to put up paper test video, but - man - I'm still cringing hearing those drivers distorting hard - hope they ain't damaged
Yeah, the paper is jumping pretty good, but at the cost of heavy distortion, which doesn't represent the bass hit you'd experience if listening with these cans for your personal pleasure (unless heavy distortion is your thing).
It would be good to see the Razor Kraken do the paper test again, only at a non distorted level which would be representative of the kind of bass impact you could experience in the real not distorted world for sure.
I might give it a try...once I'm in the Philippines and we have WiFi, I mean.
My setup is very simple and doesn't have an amp, so hopefully that will eliminate distortion (because even at full volume they didn't distort).
Still, they sound muddy as f'k, so I'm going to debate with myself over going through with the test.
The Kraken killed by the 77x!

But thanks to NewWaveAudio for stepping into the fray of the Extreme Bass Coliseum
But in the end the 57mm bass tuned driver of the 77x brought a swift death to the inexperienced and distorted Razor Kraken.....
Coming soon to the battle - SONY's seasoned gladiator.....the might that is...the XB700!
.....and some new bass crown pretenders looking to chance their luck for the glory of Extreme Bass...!
STAY TUNED FIGHT FANS!
Yes.
Please do not distort drivers. That will not be good for your wallet and anyone considering buying the Krakens since they obviously don't want to hear distortion.
Great respect at participating though
Looking forward to future battles.
Please use not distorting levels and put your exact eq/effects settings. Use the standard font and keep this thread nice in uniformity....we need a clean arena
Yamaha EPH 100 are fantastic if you like IEM's. Get some memory foam earbuds from lostearbuds on ebay (which fit great and improve the sound) and you are set. Sounds great straight out of an ipod. Awesome bass.
This is coming from someone who has spent hundreds of dollars on more expensive headphones (as many of us have).
