Gotcha, well thatās great that itās really nice 
Thatās awesome to hear.
Iām looking forward to the next version as well (mostly because, a) Iām purchasing other gear right now, b) I donāt have a proper amp to drive them).
The feedbacks been really positive.
Do you remember what you didnāt like about the version you listened too?
Itās not like I didnāt enjoy it, it was very enjoyable, but I personally didnāt think it competes much with much higher end planars like the lcd 24, 1266 phi tc, d8000 pro etc. It was pretty good but not that good to me, but I didnāt have enough time to listen to fully develop an opinion make a decision, and it wasnāt the final version

Yes that true but the price is more affordable then the ones you mentioned which I have except the lcd24.
Very true, it does offer a better value prop for sure, but Iām personally not taking that into account here when talking about pure sound

I swear the AMT has very lightly shocked my ear. Itās not painful but annoying. I guess it can develop static. I could be dreaming.lol:rofl:
Thatās clearly just part of the experience lol (I could have made countless shitty puns but I will refrain)

Talking about static, I just touched the top of my computer monitor and a big static shock happened, shutting down the monitor (it restarted). Fuck, I need this as a tattoo or something.
Lol yes but I donāt wanna be āgroundedā everywhere for life.

So I decided to go listen to these at a friends house today (about 5ish hours of listening), pretty interesting. I will first start off with presentation. I think they are interesting depth and layering wise, as they extend out pretty far, but donāt create a realistic soundstage or image around your head which is a bit disappointing, a bit more left and right with not the best spatial recreation but still def enjoyable. I do like how speedy and detailed they are, while still remaining smoother sounding like an amt on a speaker, impressed by that aspect. It is coherently tuned but nothing super special in that regard, leaning towards neutral perhaps. Also the timbre was pretty dang good, so that was nice, but I donāt think it was the most natural thing out there. To me they are very enjoyable, and I do think they are impressive for the price, but comparing to higher end headphones I donāt think it really competes overall, it might trade some blows but I tended to prefer the higher end stuff more over the hedd. I will pick up one in the future, but I donāt know if it will be that immediate. It was something good and unique but not something that made me want one immediately. Also comfort and build is aight, nothing crazy good or bad.
I tried it on a Moon 430HA, Eddie Current Studio JR, and a Chord Hugo 2 (used as a dac and also an amp) with my typical genres being almost everything lol. Also on a spl phonitor e
I am curious of their next product they may put out, and may possibly wait for that so they can get their stuff together to properly compete with the top tier of headphones. In their current state I can def recommend them if you like speed and detail while still being relatively smooth at the cost of spatial recreation and some naturalness, but it would def come down to preference

I also kinda wish I could have tried it on my stuff but I didnāt bring anything over, but perhaps I might listen to it again another time

Nice!
Thank you.
The speed was the main thing I took with me, as I listened to the prototype at munich high end 2019 in a bad loud environment
Thought it will be a niche product with 1.5KG and at 2.5kā¦ so thought the same about a v2 thenā¦ now itās half the weight and 1800. Kicks some balls vs maybe Arya or even others
Like always preferences
Hope they get a second loudspeaker company to Focal- with top quality headphones with a reasonable price to Performance

I do want to pick one up, it is unique enough and I liked it enough to have itās own place in my collection, but I can tell you from that experience that it also wonāt be unseating anything in my collection
