Damn M0N didnā€™t knew youā€™re such a man of culture :wine_glass:

I listen to a ton of stuff lol

How do you feel about Dreams Come True 2019?

Ye thatā€™s a really good EP, I didnā€™t like their newest album that much tho, the one thatā€™s only on bandcamp

Gotcha, itā€™s different but I donā€™t mind it that much

I donā€™t mind that its more poppy I like me some pop, but I didnā€™t think it was catchy or compelling enough

Pretty true, a bit more mainstream sounding I would say

Ok Iā€™ve just seen the biggest turn off about these headphones, WHY the HELL do they have 2 volume knobs for left and right?!! do you want me do die cuz of ocd?! :sob: , oh and the build quality is oof

Yeah build isnā€™t their strong suit tbh. You can just max the volume as I do so you know itā€™s exactly the same and control volume elsewhere

well, where elsewhere, if i do it in windows that means Iā€™m maxing the amp, well the energizerā€™s power so more distorsion so thats a no no

Well you would just want to get something like a schiit sys or a mackie big knob (or a Fostex Pc-1e if you can find one). You would then max your volume on windows and use a line out of your motherboard if you donā€™t want to get a dac

Idk this seems like such a hassle, I will keep these in mind for the future, but like it needs more money cuz the knobā€™s cursed and it needs bass boost as well, also the air region seems subdued, while I can get Elex or Edition XX for the same money and they just work and donā€™t need anythingā€¦

Very true, it comes down to preference. Also you would want an amp and dac for your choice so make sure to factor that

True :thinking:

This is a good passive preamp. Nice feeling knob. I use it with the Emotiva A-100ā€¦ as that amp too big to have on my desk.

Alrightā€¦itā€™s here. Tell me what to listen for that makes them distinctly electrostatic

The speed and separation. Also the different timbre. Also very open sounding and let sound pass pretty feely

I think Iā€™m hearing those things on Hideaway by Jacob Collier. Tons of layers here.
Has enough bass for me, which I was worried about

Yeah the layering is impressive. Also yes the bass was just fine for me as well, especially for an estat

Iā€™ve had these on and playing for only 2 days nowā€¦and I now understand the statement ā€œOnce you go 'Stats (Stax?) you canā€™t go backā€.
If these are any indication of what the electrostatic world has to offer, I may have to end up selling everything else I own at this point.
Itā€™s the sound I have been searching through planar after planar and never really finding one that hit the spot.
