Thank you. That leaves me wondering whether Beyerdynamic changed the tuning of the drivers besides the cable. Otherwise the changes must have come from the difference in cable--which seem to be quite a lot. Have we had any official information about this edition from Beyer?
Just a comment that might shed some light on this sound change. A few weeks ago I had occasion to order a new set of ear pads for my T1's from Beyer. To my surprise they were slightly different from the original pads even though they were the direct replacement. The first thing I noticed was a slightly warmer sound and a wider sound stage. The ear opening on these pads are a little smaller than the original. The material is similar but feels a little firmer. I re-terminated my T1's to balanced xlr some time ago so that is the only way I use them with my Auralic Taurus. I think the small change in the pads accounts for some of this perceived difference with this special edition.
