As someone who has pretty much no experience with any TOTL offerings other than a few minutes with the Atrium Closed, Verite Closed, DCA Stealth, and HE-1 at CanJam Chicago, it seems that in general the consensus is that TOTL headphones will naturally be less forgiving of sub-optimal recordings than less resolving headphones.
I'm curious which TOTL headphones, if any, really place an emphasis on musical engagement regarding of recording quality (of course recognizing that better recordings will be optimal on nice headphones) rather than technicalities. For example, it seems the Atrium is more forgiving than the Verite or Caldera. It seems like the Meze Elite might fall in the more 'forgiving' category too? Are there any others?
