A different website other than this one?  Where's the love for Head Fi?

 

[sphinxvc]

Shhh.  Nobody make any sudden movements.  Yes preproman, another website.  AVSforum.  See you there!

 

[preproman]

They got like 50 forums over there - which forum?

 

[sphinxvc]

I'm just kidding around, I don't really know what he's talking about.  On another note, I got my Paradox!  

 

[preproman]

Awe man - you got me good

Headfonia I think.

Quick question, has anybody compared these to the Hifiman HE-5LE?  because I'm really curious about how they compare with regards to bass, detail in the mids, and imaging/soundstage...

Lovin' this phone so far.

Your going to need a amp with some juice behind it to get all those good things the HE-5LE can give you.  With the Paradox that kind of amp is not needed.

 

[sphinxvc]

That's true.  It's been a long time since I sold my 5LEs, but from what I can remember it's not as balanced as the Paradox, slightly v-shaped in FR, and has a significant peak in the treble.  I can't recall whether it's much better in technical matters, but even if it is, the peaks and FR are it's downfall next to the Paradox.  A peak can mask detail in adjacent bands.

That's odd about the peaks.  Did you get a chance to try it on the F3?  

 

[sphinxvc]

No, this was before all that, I had a vintage receiver at the time.  Peak, at least in relation to the Paradox.
