Spirit Torino Valkyria

I have heard their entry level model, the Superleggera. I have posted my impression of them here:

TL;DR: a Beats-sounding headphone but with sibilant voices and the details of a HD660S for 1600 euros. To say that i didn’t liked them would be an understatement.
I disliked every single song i listened with them, and found no reedming qualities in their sound tuning, it just sounded wrong on so many levels.
They were also pretty uncomfortable because of the pads used, but i heard they changed them and now they should be much better.


This is their closed back model which also is a bass cannon, but looking ad the graph i would say the Superleggera wouldn’t be too far from this graph: just wrong and wonky.

Now i can’t comment on their other headphones since i never heard them, but reading a bit online it seems that basically no one has the superleggera, they all have the Twin Pulse which is like “the real deal” and should be a much more balanced sounding headphone. I hope i get to listen to it in the future, i want to believe that what i listened to was either a defective pair or just a very bad headphone that was more of a “failed experiment” and as such is not representative of the brand sound signature.
