A little late to the party, but i finally decided to get a Verite, in silkwood
When i first heard these, i was not too impressed with the sound, and much preferred the Aeolus, but eventually i figured that a lot of it had to do with the amps/pads etc. So what better way to find out about what these can actually do than to actually get a pair yourself XD ( seriously though, you guys have been tempting me with all your impressions of the Verite ) .
I will be running music/pink noise through it for a week for burn in before some serious listening. Initially, i was not a believer of burn in, until i got the aeolus which really opened up after putting many hours into it. I trust that the same thing will happen with the Verite
Am confident that these will secure a spot in my collection , given my recent cravings for more musical/forgiving headphones. As much as i enjoy listening to the big hitters ( 009, abyss, susvara , sr1a ) in my possession, i find myself spending
significantly more head-time on the more forgiving and euphoric headphones that forgo a little technicalities for a pleasurable listening experience , namely the 007, Auteur/Aeolus , HD650/6xx. Its nice to able to throw any kind of track and still have it sound pleasing, irregardless of the recording quality of the track itself. After getting these today and listening to them directly out of the box, i can confidently say that they do belong to the forgiving category, which is nice ( though kind of expected from the impressions ive read ).
Anyways, will look forward to hearing it after more burn in !
