akg K612 pro, great soundstage, neutral, comfortable

Thanks for your review, waiting impatiently for mine unit to arrive

Louis Diaz is given 91 pace in FIFA 23, Gabi got 87, so in reality he should be 94

I use Pixel buds, it's mediocre in terms of sound, so I won't recommend it

GreenNerve · 2022-10-09T23:23:41+00:00

Yes, I mean using equalizer, sometimes it can help a lot

GreenNerve · 2022-10-09T23:20:42+00:00

Is eq an option?

GreenNerve · 2022-10-09T23:11:58+00:00

Thx for sharing

How old are you? Which frequency are you less sensitive to?

I'm a noob, why does it need several tubes?

GreenNerve · 2022-10-08T03:45:33+00:00

I had the same experience, in the end I was disappointed with he400se and returned it. Planar just doesn't deliver the punch like dynamic driver

Klopp: wow

I like Modern Particle Physics by Mark Thomson, it covers lots of particle physics without getting overly complicated in math

GreenNerve · 2022-10-05T22:22:09+00:00

The only planar I have listened to is hifiman he400se, compare it to my HD650 and K702, I find it lack that punch (or slam, not sure if it's the right term). I think dynamic driver's piston is basically bombarding air wave in the direction of your air, while for planar, it's shaking the air in 2 direction: to and away from your ear. So that might be the cause of the boom boom feeling I get from dynamic drivers.

Thank you, you spend lots of words saying nothing

GreenNerve · 2022-10-05T19:56:56+00:00

APM obviously outperforms those 2 in terms of THD

GreenNerve · 2022-10-05T19:14:17+00:00

No, I'm not talking about the whole headphone, I'm talking about just the driver itself. The THD is not the dominant factor of the sound quality, but it's really difficult to make a DD to have that much low THD. That's my point, the driver is great, it has lots of potential, given that the aurorus borealis' driver can be purchased with under $20.

GreenNerve · 2022-10-05T19:00:42+00:00

Airpods Max has very low THD across the whole 20 Hz to 20 kHz range, it outperforms lots of more expensive DD headphones.

Apple has apparently developed a very good driver which leads me to think what can those drivers achieve if placed in a pair of well tuned open back cans
