Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
I don't listen to the bass separately, I listen to the music as a whole and for me the Variations sound better overall. The timbre is in frequency response so I will not go further in this topic :)- RIGATIO

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
Even on the graph you can clearly see that the Xelentos have a very big midbass bump and this influence the overall timbre. Im not saying that the Xelentos lack in technical department but there are too many cases when i listen to them when the guitars and vocals for example, are blending with...- RIGATIO

Decided to keep the ie900 in the end. Variations are one of the best ive heard but the ie900 are so much fun and refinement!- RIGATIO

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
Yes im happy with the ie900 but compared with the Variations, im not sure anymore:) I dont really know what does "delivering the best possible sound effortlessly" mean tbh. It actually sounds bit like the ie900 is trying too hard to impress when the Variations are chilled as they know that the...- RIGATIO

No source will give you this much of colouring, headphones and iems are for that. Most sources sound very similar.- RIGATIO

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
My main problem with the ie900 when compared to the Variations is that the ie900 just doesnt sound natural. It has more of this WOW factor but i could compare it to the situation when you have some TWS iems and you turn on Dolby Atmos or similar sound effects. Its cool but the music just doesnt...- RIGATIO

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
Agree, the ie900's bass is probably the best among all currently existing iems. I also love their trebles as they are very extened but dont bother me at all. I already eliminated the Xelentos 2 and they will be going back. I prefer the ie900 to them because the Senns sound cleaner and more...- RIGATIO

Comparing today Moondrop Variations to the ie900 and the Xelento 2 and WOW. To my ears the Variations literally destroy both iems in terms of naturalness and realism. This case again confirmes that the soundstage is in the tuning, not in some party tricks. The trebles on the Variation are so...- RIGATIO

Did you try other amps with the dx300? I remember that the amp12 improved the sound even more, giving it more controll, dynamics, clarity, stage and separation. It was less colored but more like a typical class A sound (well the amp12 is a class A amp). I remember not liking the dx320 with stock...- RIGATIO

Sound quality wise, the dx300 will be probably slightly inferior to others but not by much and it has great battery life. Dx320 is very slightly better than the dx300 but it has poorer battery life. The se200 will have this typical AK sound signature, with liquid mids and a very precise and...- RIGATIO

It doesnt really matter. All mentioned above will have enough power and sound quality for the ie900.- RIGATIO

The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...
I dont have the Sony but have the AK sp1000 and the Elite performs on a similar level, just slightly behind in stage width, treble extension and perfect neutrality. I could hear the differences when comparing A/B but in isolation, the Elite doesnt lack anything. This is the only dongle that can...- RIGATIO

Compared the ie900 to the Xelento 2 more and the Xelento have bit more ear gain, so the female vocals have bit more energy and are slightly more forward. Still its all far away from a typical harman or even IEF target but more energetic than on the ie900.- RIGATIO
