Bowers and Wilkins PX8 Wireless Discussion
I don’t doubt this. Something like this happened with my Meze 99 Classics. I think it’s a combination of different factors, some psychophysical and some electromechanical—the elusive burn-in effect. Some headphones need that more than others. I liked my AirPods Max pretty much out of the box...- erich6

Bowers and Wilkins PX8 Wireless Discussion
I tried out the PX8 at an airport store and I was disappointed—they sounded wooly with a closed-in soundstage using wireless connection to my iPhone 14 Pro. Admittedly, it was a quick trial and it’s possible the headphones had a bad EQ profile loaded in them. The attendant said she liked...- erich6

Sennheiser Momentum 3 Wireless - The Official Thread

Sennheiser HD660S... Finally a successor for the HD650?

Sennheiser HD660S... Finally a successor for the HD650?
I like my HD6xx and HD660S headphones but I'm thinking about adding a set of Grado's to my collection. What is it about the Grado sound you prefer? Which Grado's would fall in the "like" category for you (or which are the exceptions)?- erich6

OPPO HA-2 Portable Headphone Amplifier/DAC Discussion Thread
I think they sound pretty good even compared to current offerings unless you are looking for bleeding edge tech or need more power. It's a unique physical design and form factor which I find to be very classy.- erich6
