New Head-Fier
When I had the lcd-x I would one hundred percent agree with you. With the ayra I like them. Many like classical music, piano, strings and not always the rock to pop and very few like the latest garbage of sick rap.This problem sounds like mine that I had with the He1KV2. I returned the headphone. Trebles were to bright, everything too artificial, too exhausting. Listening for 3 hours was nit enjoyable at all.
Sometimes less is more.
With the classical and such these headphones shine to me.
The source makes a difference too. When I use the wiim coax out to the 499 it doesn’t sound good.
I am thinking g about getting a eversolo a8 or fiio r9 down the road. Leaning towards the eversolo because it can rip cd’s very easily. Not sure if the fiio can.
