Which Headphones (full-size) will sound like the ESW10JPN?

Heard that my head-fier friends here in Thailand are saying the ESW10JPN sounds like ATH W2002 in smaller scale.

need your help guys.



Interesting question - about a brand new kid on the block.
Can't be many head-fiers who have heard these new guys
and can give you a reliable answer.
No detailed reports yet out yet on their sound signature.
Focusing on exactly how they differ from the 9s.
Do you have a pair of the esw10s?
Or have you heard them?
I do have a pair.
Recently acquired, naturally.
I found myself putting a pair of Beyerdynamic leather earpads
I had lying around over and around the esw10 earpads.
It seems to add an extra fullness to the sound.
Though I haven't switched back and forth to confirm the change.
Of course, the Beyer pad does change the minimal appearance.
Probably a (the?) major attraction of these cans.
I wonder what substituting a fuller cup to esw10s would do to
the sound.
That might be the answer to your question.

i have heard the esw10 personally and i am amazed by the sound that it produces.

however i am planning to get a full size can, thus i need to find one that sounds like the esw10.

any idea how the esw10 compare to the d2000?

That's interesting, if possible can you post a pic?

Yes, sorry. You mean you couldn't read my mind?

Okay, ESW10JPN sounds very very nice with the WA6 maxed, I have no complaints and it is good enough that I never bothered to try the Single Power Square Wave XL sitting right next to it.

Sorry I was just messing with you before.
