And after you've adjusted them properlyThe greatest joy is the joy of anticipation, that's what's normally said. But with the 1266 the joy really starts when you have them on your head Enjoy!

First Impressions: I can truly say with confidence this is the epitome of planar bass response. The amount of detail present on the lower end is absurd, seriously. I've described the Audeze LCD-4 hitting like a sledgehammer... The 1266 is like firing a howitzer from inside a cavern. It's huge, aggressive, and impressive. Decided to throw on The Weeknd's Dawn FM to really get a taste of what these can do and, to my delight, was provided a masterclass of technical performance and sheer blunt force. With the Burson GT on high gain, these are almost borderline abuse. I love it and have begun the process of combing my music library to flesh out all there is to hear. Getting the perfect fit is going to take some time, but I guess that'll happen while the listening is happening.Never expected to own a hp in the hobby that looked or felt anything like the Abyss AB1266. The jeep video isn't so much of a surprise after feeling the build quality of this for the first time. This truly is built to last a long long time. The wooden box, the smell of the leather bag, the robust weight of this monster.. it all screams quality. Warming up the Burson Soloist GT for what'll hopefully be an experience. Can't wait to update with first impressions!
@paradoxper you mentioned a convolution filter EQ was coming for the TC in the Audeze LCD 5 thread. Can you provide any more details? Who is making it and where can I try it?
These were my first impressions as well and the 1266s continue to amaze me to this day. I have a Burson stack running them also and they work very well together. I'm STILL combing through my music collection to listen to tracks in a "new light". Happy listening!

what speaker amp did u use? are u using the speaker taps? congrats on your purchase.I found it really took having them connected to a quality speaker amp before I got the full 1266 TC experience. Now I am blown away - literally Bass, sub-bass, soundstage, all of it is ever so present, crisp/snappy and clear. Have fun on the journey.
I am using a Chord Etude with my TT2/Mscaler combo. And yes I am using speaker taps.what speaker amp did u use? are u using the speaker taps? congrats on your purchase.
