Thanks for the effort of the review.
If you are using bassboost for E5, means it actually increase the mid low frequency, it still do not sound muffer as per your review. So i suppose it do not concluded as a bassy headphones if the bass boost features turned to be "off". If that is the case, how do it show the weakness of the sources? the low is not extended after certain amount of volume? |

QUOTE(yapte @ Jan 12 2011, 01:31 AM) I did not mention it is a bassy headphones in my review. I did say "bass is more acceptable due to E5's enhancement". Hi Man,Your questions will only draw people's attention to my pairing system, not the headphones itself! Because it is my system sounds a bit bassy but not the headphones. The focus is on the trancient of HI2050, which is fast and tight in bass perfomance!  I'm just curious of it's signatures, i just help ppl to concluded it, coz i have to double think to understand how's the headphone signatures. as such, i put the sentence here. "If you are using bassboost for E5, means it actually increase the mid low frequency, it still do not sound muffer as per your review. So i suppose it do not concluded as a bassy headphones if the bass boost features turned to be "off"." Based on your review i can see it is not a bassy headphone. But my real question is. how does it shown the weakness?? It can be amp or the headphone itself. But normally the problem existed for both problem. I would like to understand more, is it the amp problem or the headphone problem, that's why i ask "If that is the case, how do it show the weakness of the sources? the low is not extended after certain amount of volume?" Sorry to make you misleading, my poor language. no offence taken man, if the product are good, i can sell it anytime  |

QUOTE(yapte @ Jan 13 2011, 02:04 AM) It is alright, nothing to be sorry about! Yuheng. Hi,Okay let me explain this way. First, listen to your MP3 player directly. Then connect to your amplifier. A good(low noise) neutral amplifier should sound same as your source but much bigger and deeper soundstage when set at higher volume. Now the critical part is, can the headphones shows you that kind of larger sound. Because a "bad" headphones will show colouration(vibaration) or fraction(diaphram) in sound if feed by a more powerful amplifier, especially at high volume. If the headphones sounds like a "grand version" of your source. It means both of your amplifier and headphones are neutral and faithful to your source(my HI2050 and E9 sound this way). At this point, You can "see clearer" at the sound now. Because the sound not only larger but closer. Then you will realize the music treated by Shuffle is bit artificial. This kind of artificial sound is only created by player but not from your amplifier or headphones. It will become more noticeable if you play it through a more revealling system. I think you might get the different theory as me. No offense taken please, we resumed it to be pure discussion. If you are pairing an extra amplifier in your setup, it can be adding gain (higher volume) or resume the same gain power (make no difference of volume), Regardless on the volume, the soundstage can be wider, or remained the same, it is just how's the amp designer tuned on it. If you get vibration on higher volume, it can be amplifier, headphone or your sources. Ok this is out, and generally we do not use this point to judge whether the headphone is good or bad, by louder the volume. And if you get the "grand version" of your music, means you get the sound you wan, it can be coloured, and it can be V Shape with absent of mid, it can be high extended, it can be digital, or it can be musical (non-digital)it will not show how neutral the amp or the headphone. Neutral is neutral, coloured is coloured, it still do not show whether the headphone are good, or bad. It is purely on how you demand your desired sound. Nothing wrong with colored, or nothing good to be neutral. That is just to be fair to everyone Ok all this have out of the topic. We can resumed the discussion. I m just curious on how this headphone sound, so i raised some question, but i think i managed to get my answer from your reply. Thanks for your effort of this review This post has been edited by yuheng: Jan 14 2011, 12:39 AM |

QUOTE(yapte @ Jan 14 2011, 02:21 AM) Thanks for your concerns! I appreciate that! In fact i never doubt of why you using a E5, i just conclude that your headphone character are not bassy type, Coz after E5 it still sound neutral to you. That is the only thing i said if you wan to refer back to my post. If we have a chance to own an ultimate headphone system or home audio system. What will you expect? Let me tell you my answer first: I hope it can be as "real" as possibe in music reproduction. "real" is "real", threre is nothing do with colouration! I can take a coloured system or headphones because I have to compromise. The reason is I can not afford a 500k Hifi setup. Sad! I never expect my idea of getting E5 involved can become an issue! Perhaps I should let my system to "answer" the remaing questions! I will organize a small appreation gathering for this China Combo(more correctly, it is a Trio actually! LOL!). Guys! If you are interested or you have a better idea, please let me know. Will post a thread as invitation in future, probably after Chinese New Year. See you later, guys! ok, let cut it now. Maybe we can have a face meet, it clear all the doubts then Enjoy your new music |
