If my definitions of these bass terms are correct:
Punchy = quick, sharp, tight (as in no reverb) bass notes
Impact = high level of force or great weight in delivery (like the thumping of a subwoofer)
I have to ask, can you have impact without punch or punch without impact? How so? I read a lot of posts about the Sony Z1000 headphones being punchy, but lacking impact. In my simple noob (yet logical world), these two characteristics are associated. Can someone help me better understand this phenomena?
