Nyobain beberapa headphone : • Hifiman Edition XV, gacor banget anjir ini buat lagu lagu punk, metal, grunge, rock, hip hop dst. Buat lagu wibu masih masuk sih, vocalnya decent. Sayangnya timbre-nya masih "khas" planar, gak separah Edition XS sih, lebih smooth juga daripada Edition XS. Problemnya ma

Help me buy a new headphone!

How much did you pay for the Organic? If $700 ish and you don’t have bunch of extra cash around I’d just stick with that one. TLDR: they are all pretty similar especially if you use eq or like to try different pads. Get whatever your budget allows without feeling like you spent too much This may not

What would be the best headphone if your HRTF is already accounted for?

I borrowed this pic from another thread, its the FR of the Hifiman Edition XV: The 'squiggly' lines is resonating, right? This is separate from the change in FR from positional variance if I'm correct. Although this is quite an exaggerated, severe case; I'd still like to know what headphone perform

Dynamic vs planar

Open backs are basically always going to roll off, modern planars just sometimes postpone it a bit longer, and more importantly slope downwards a bit more gently. They're generally just slightly easier to EQ to conformity with harman-style targets down to ~20hz. For example you could compare the ext

Searching for a complement for my Arya Stealth

My compliment to the Arya Stealth is the Focal Radiance. They are on the warmer side but doesn't lack in detail. They're a fun and engaging listen with great low end heft. If you could stretch out the budget a little and find one on the used market and you're in for a treat. The best budget option i

I’m back with another recommendation, folks. Nothing’s upcoming album ‘a short history of decay’ is excellent and NEEDS headphones to be fully appreciated (dreampop/shoegaze)

Makes sense. Got my headphones primed and ready (Hifiman Edition XV, huge soundstage)

Just tried some headphones today. Momen lucu tadi ada mas mas ngetest IEM suaranya kenceng banget, disebelah dia sampe kedengeran dia nyetel through the fire and flame. • Moondrop Horizon, suaranya dark banget treble tenggelem tapi bassnya cuman sekelas HD560S jadi gak bisa dibilang bass-head set. B

Asus ROG Kithara + Yamaha ZG02 Inbound

I have multiple HiFiMan products, and the only one I've had to RMA was a DAC/amp that had a bad USB-C port. It was replaced pretty quickly. I have large ears, so their egg-shaped cups on their headphones tend to be very comfortable for me. The audio quality on their open back headphones tend to be e

Edition XV vs HE600 vs Arya Organic

200-500hz for me sounds emphasized which is lightly corroborated by measurements, it seems. 2khz has that characteristic hifiman dip, and 6khz has some sort of peak, resonance maybe. Different units are showing more or less modal behavior (weird volume ripples) from 100-1000hz due to the massive dia
