I've never heard magnetic planars before...but mentioned that the HE400 do "slam" (if I remember correctly). In your opinion, are open magnetic planars capable of hitting hard enough to satisfy basshead?
I wouldn't describe it as a slam, and I don't think it moves paper. However, the clarity, accuracy, detail, and fullness of the sound make the low end just incredibly pleasurable to me. It's just sooo... gorgeous, I really have a hard time describing it. It's like the extreme opposite of muddy, the definition and speed of the headphones make things just sound incredible.
It took me a bit to adjust to the sound signature, and I'm not sure if it was through burn in or brain burn in, but once it clicked it's just awesome.
Mimby just arrived so I'll be giving that a good round of listening this afternoon!
