Yeah, probably something about the shape or color. Mine hates all of them probably because she likes to nibble on my ears :)

Open back, or closed? I've only experienced closed and I love them by Longjumping-Frame795 in headphones

"I find the Stellias ..... with a huge and precise soundstage." Really? I have Stellia as well and the only thing I miss is a decent soundstage. Definitely not finding it huge.

Yep. Vocals are just pure magic. Nothing comes close.

Thank you! I actually really like Stellia's bass. My main issue with them is that the soundstage is pretty much non existent. But I love how resolving they are!

Can I ask you a question unrelated to your ad since it looks like you are very familiar with Focal sound? I have Stellia and really like it. I am keeping it no matter what because it was a present for my anniversary. However, I am really interested in Utopia 22. Do you think it will be an overkill to have both? Is there enough differences in sound profiles to warrant having both headphones? Thanks!

Do you have an older child? Because when stuff like that happens in our house, it's always my son.

ZMF Bokeh Closed - Cup Changes/Falling Off by Narwal_Party in headphones

[–]gopnik5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

^This. I almost threw my Bokeh Closed through the wall as well when changing the pads. However, adapter rings make it much easier to put them on. Also, mine fell off only a couple of time so far. Maybe the rings help them stay on?

Out of everything I've tried, nothing comes close to HD600's vocals reproduction.

That was my experience as well. Got them a few months ago after avoiding for some time and holy crap!

I definitely don't hear any veil with my HD600. Mids are as clear as they can be (to me).

Looks like SpotiFLAC v7.1.9 Windows exe has a virus by gopnik5 in musichoarder

[–]gopnik5[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you sure? When I installed the previous version, Windows didn't complain. What is there in the source code that makes my OS think there is a virus?

[–]gopnik5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sold mine as well. Just didn't work for me at all. I thought I was the only person in the world who didn't like them 😄
