Of all the book shelves/2.0

Among the D1080IV, M200MK II, M200MK III, T200B, the D1080IV has the most bass out of the box and like Dennis said, you can really feel the punchiness of it if you are using it nearfiled. I only have demo in my own house and it's about 2.5ft away from the wall loaded on a pair of ST2. Given the same location for all speakers, the M200MK III does not have a ton of bass but it's very musical. The reason why these D1080IV, M200, and M50W are the top selling speakers is because they are musical sounding speakers. The D1080IV has some mid range coloration at default setting, but some people like it.

Personally, after testing all of them back and forth, I've had friends who really like the T200B, then there are people who really like the M200MK III, and there's people like me who really like the H5 + H10. And there's also people who really like the T200B + H10/H6. Generally speaking, you just can't go wrong with these speakers, there's one for everybody in the complete line up.

I also love the X4 a lot as a desktop monitor. I just hope they'd used silk dome/textile considering the distance of these speakers would have been placed. The H series delivers the most neutral and uncolored sound of all ranges.

I've poisoned a lot of people kau kau since 10 years ago when I delivered the very first batch of KSC75 all the way from NA back to Malaysia with the help of a few forumers who are now my best buddies biggrin.gif I think the poison our D800 friend has is beyond saving already laugh.gif

I'm wondering if bro pcwork can come out with special cable for m50w since the sound signature like the hd650 brows.gif

lol the original sound of M50W is already quite resemble with the tonal type of stock hd650.
it's warm, punchy bass, and quite balance overall. Give it a try and u might feel it's actually good enough, and which in my opinion don't even need much tweaks, just make sure you have good source to feed it.

and i don't think VDH will suits M50W. the M50W is already warm but still maintaining quite good speed in the sound signature with stock cable. changing it over to VDH such as D102mk3 cable will slow the sound even more, add more colour to mid, and even much warmer, which is a big no no to M50W imho.

bro than what is your opinion on the d1080? need any tweaks?

to my ear 1080 and X4 sound the best.. hehe
i don't think need to mod at the moment. just give it a try.. only then decide wanna tweaks it with cable or not. stock cable is quite good quality though
