Ten minutes in another place, with other gears I do not consider in any way a good test. Best! Nicola |
So: POINT 1: "Zero attenuation" -- After the meet I made many references to the need to audition these phones in a very very quiet environment. We'll have to make a very serious effort to establish this at least to some extent at Aaron's happy gathering. |
POINT 2: FIT -- As Nik has emphasized many times, precise fit is absolutely essential. This will, very obviously, not be possible for some or most of us at the meet. |
POINT 4: SYNERGY OF ALL COMPONENTS IN THE CHAIN -- Although they're very efficient and easily driven by most amps, they are so very sensitive to synergy with every link in the sonic chain from AC power and source to the wearers ears, and will even sound different from recording to recording -- dramatically more so than any other phones I've tried to date (I haven't tried them all by a long shot). Since we won't have one of the few amps built in dedication to the Q010, anything that can be done to refine the synergy of the available components will help. |
