Damn M0N didn’t knew you’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 that’s a really good EP, I didn’t like their newest album that much tho, the one that’s only on bandcamp

Gotcha, it’s different but I don’t mind it that much

I don’t mind that its more poppy I like me some pop, but I didn’t think it was catchy or compelling enough

Pretty true, a bit more mainstream sounding I would say

Ok I’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 isn’t their strong suit tbh. You can just max the volume as I do so you know it’s exactly the same and control volume elsewhere

well, where elsewhere, if i do it in windows that means I’m maxing the amp, well the energizer’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 don’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 knob’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 don’t need anything…

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-100… as that amp too big to have on my desk.

Alright…it’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 I’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

I’ve had these on and playing for only 2 days now…and I now understand the statement ā€œOnce you go 'Stats (Stax?) you can’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.
It’s the sound I have been searching through planar after planar and never really finding one that hit the spot.
