please tell me your thoughts about ps1k and ultra10. thanks

As a long time Ultrasone fans, disappointed about the music engagement of Ultrasone 10, especially harsh hi freq response. PS1000 sounds more natural and enjoyable.

i don't understand ultrasone if that's true. why build a headphone for a million $ and make the highs harsh.
that's not logical. which amp did you used with u10 ?

Read Tyll's review of the Ultrasone Edition 10 over at Inner Fidelity. Ultrasone blew it big time. The E10 is all flash and no substance. Measurements are awful.

despite of the measurments it still sounds crazy...
but thanks anyway.
looks like the problem in the review was not related to the system synergy either...

Yeah, I also don't understand why they would make a poor-sounding headphone. Why would a company ever make a mediocre product and sell it for big bucks??? It makes no sense

but the look of it is world class imho
and very light too.

I actually think the ED10 looks kind of tacky. The Audio-Technica woodies are much more elegant looking.

Yep, it's a bit gaudy.

I like both.
 
Really, the fact that I personally find not much to hate about my Ed 10 makes me doubt whether I'm cut out to be an genuine audiophile.

i don´t think this.
i also loved both but the ps-1000 in my opinion have a big problem with the bass response at high volume and the two headphones are too expensive for the quality.
i think that is a way to raise money to those on a budget.
personally, i bought both used

Why are you looking at these models?  sounds to me like you're just looking to buy an expensive headphone, not necessarily a hi-fi headphone.  If that's the case, I'd be happy to sell you my M50's for 2000 dollars.

I have issues with the PS1000's construction, but the sound seems pretty "hi-fi" to my ears. I prefer it to the T1 and LCD-2 rev.1. I'll probably get one someday if I can find an original non-chrome one at a discounted enough price.
 
Can't recommend the Edition 10 by any means. It's thoroughly ridiculous. Would have sold mine long ago if not for the fact that I've kind of grown attached to its quirks and its uncanny ability to present a "being there" sort of feeling on certain recordings. It's only a matter of time before I get rid of it though.
 
I think lumping the PS1000 in with the Edition 10 is a bit harsh.
