I really enjoy the sound on this headphone. I been useing them for over a week now. I have my Eather CX and I love those but they are like the THX and are really pin point. I been playing around with different songs and this headphone is so dinamic. I wish I had a better amp and dac to push them more.
@M0N The first song on this vid. Dear God the headphones are spot on. The highs and lows and everything. Any other good tunes that will drive these… send it
Its not any of the big guys but there is a pretty nice review here: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/the-closed-back-headphone-thread-plus-audio-technica-flagship-comparison.939901/post-15809187

@M0N I love epic music,guns and the sounds of rounds on target… America coming in hot and heavy…SEALS… The helicopter 160th saying is…DEATH WAITS IN THE DARK…
Interesting read! I keep seeing the WP900’s around with attractive pricing around. Mmmm.
I am in shock that the THX 789 made the ATH-AWKT sound flat and my older CTH-SDAC and my AIRIST R2-R DAC made the headphones come to life. These headphones had to be engineered with a tube amp. It’s like night and day diff. The headphone screams now from the highs to the mids to the lowes. Like I can feel the base going into the floor from my feet on some songs.
How would you describe their soundstage? I only have two headphones from Audio-Technica, the ad700 and ad900x, and both of them have this tall and fun soundstage that don’t seem to get enough attention from people
AWKT has a s spherical soundstage that extends outside the cups and loops above the head and to the base of the jaw. I would say about average soundstage similar to the Art series but bigger than the AP2000ti.
The sound stage is like what @llysender said. Ya Audio Technica headphones are kind of over looked. It’s like they need a new PR person to push the brand more.
Audio Technica is coming out with a new AMP and DAC soon. I want to see reviews on both. I only have seen both in a vid at a Audio Technica booth.
Ackk. This thread is killing me. I passed on the AWKT and ordered the AWAS because of some reviews I read and the AWAS sound signature seemed much more to my tastes. The damned things have been on back-order since late July when I ordered them and I’m itching to get my hands on them now. Dang backorder status…
Ya I was going to get the AWAS but went for the AWKT. Who you order your AWAS from?
I had many points and credit with Adorama and ordered mine from them the week they became available but they were a special order item anyway it seems.
I could not get credit with them but I did with American Musical. I like I can buy stuff and pay it off with 0% interest.
Just arrived today. Those are beautiful headphones. Cabel sucks tough. A bit bass shy from beginning but the more I listen the better they sound.
Show me your wood
Will take a picture as soon as I take them off my head. It might be a while lol
@M0N did you have a chance to try awkt? Just asking if you had some preferences about chains. I am still trying them on what I currently have. From short session I like them more on mlp than on burson.
