I'd rather use my BT Sennheiser PXC 550-II than the Elegia without EQ, and not at all for the bass. Elegia was probably the worst headphone I ever bought (for my HRTF and taste, of course. Maybe for you it's perfect!). Coming back to the Hadenys, it will probably be my first day1 buy in the...

My preferred pad for the VC is the BE2 hybrid, which remove some of the (excessive) warmth and, to me, adds to the "snappiness" of the bass by giving a cleaner experience. I hated the Auteur pads, as they are even darker and warmer than the Universe pads, and they also sounded shouty to my...

If you guys might be interested, here is my take on the EF400 (it features english subtitles): I'm now rocking a chord mojo 2 as my main DAC, and sometimes I do miss the EF400 a bit!

here is a detail of my Redwood AuCl: mesmerizing!

So my Redwood Auteur Classic is here and... man, I hope the pictures makes her justice. I was able to listen to it for 4-5 hours in this couple days and I'm pretty happy with the sound, especially compared to the Aeolus and Verite Closed. Now I can only think about getting more LTD Zmf...

Hello, in this video I make a pretty direct physical comparison of the Universe, Auteur and BE2 pads. It may help you identify them. You can skip to the 4:40 mark (and remember to turn subtitles on). If you want you can also post a picture here, i'll be happy to help! :)

Can't wait to test this as my AuCl is coming later this week! Well, of course it won't be the same as the mesh and the pads on my Aeolus are pretty different and so my Aeolus is already tilted towards neutral compared to the one described in your post. Still, i'm very curious to compare the...

They surely are! In the last video on my channel i was able to do some extensive pad rolling testing thanks to them, as they gave me many pads to try out and test. The testing was made on the Aeolus too, so if you guys are looking for some pad rolling info, i posted the video in the Verite...

Hello guys, here is a video I did featuring the Verite Closed, with some pad rolling and a brief section about ZMF's history. It features english subtitles:

Wow, what a great write up! I'm doing a similar testing with both the Verite Closed and the Aeolus, getting pretty close results.

Since my post in february, I've added some higher tier cans to my collection and I must say, the G111 Mk2 is really keeping up the pace. Both with the HE1000 Stealth and the Verite Closed I enjoy its neutral but still slightly warm presentation. It's a great amp!

Hey guys, if anyone may be interested in a quick take, here is my Celestee review in 120". It features Eng subs. Please enjoy! :)

Hey, nice review! It seems like we see this headphone in the same way, with the same conclusion. 🙂 I posted mine in the he1000 thread, but I guess it could make sense to post it here too since it features the Arya Stealth:

Wow thanks, i've been wondering how the HEK Stealth measured! So, it's not true that the HEKSE is darker than the HEKStealth like someone seems to say. it is actually the contrary. In my experience, which is what I say in my video about the HEK Stealth, the Arya Stealth feels warmer and...

Thanks man, it means a lot! :) I would love to hear the Atrium, we'll see how it goes. To stay on topic: anyone who heard both the Aeolus and the Auteur Classic care to comment how they may intersect pad-wise? Like how about the Auteur with the Auteur vs the Aeolus with the universe or BE2? Do...
