I personally don’t like an insanely “detailed” sound, but in a nice mix - you can capture both the ambience AND sum up-close sheeyat…
Let’s face it, hearing less details is often better. Just like those noir films, or even color film and film emulations look aesthetically better than sparkling unbiased footage.
Yeah… if you get too close to a painting it looks like a bunch gross smears.
I’ve been enjoying arrau lately after upgrading my headphones with what I was saving to buy a house (need to wait until decades of financial sector socialism is corrected - so give or take 50 years)
the arrau tone surprisingly beautiful in 60s and 70s
Yeah… for a guy that don’t own a dish washer or microwave it was a stretch but if I don’t do financially irresponsible things now and then I can’t justify to myself working for evil mutlinationationals to end free society. this a fair trade
Honestly, my Sundara’s are all I need. I don’t really know what can be audibly improved. I have to say that an amplifier makes even okay headphones sound much better. My Meze Classics, which don’t need extra amplification, sound much more transparent with amplification. Everything is tighter and there’s more clarity across the registers.
