WESTONE LABORATORIES W80 UNIVERSAL-FIT EARPHONE $1,500 – REVIEW
May 21, 2017 Comments Off on WESTONE LABORATORIES W80 UNIVERSAL-FIT EARPHONE $1,500 – REVIEW
” There is very little to criticise in Westone’s W80. Perhaps the only ‘downsides’ involve the fact that the earphone is (not surprisingly) extremely sensitive to the quality of associated amplifiers and source components and is noticeably harder to drive than Westone’s W60/ES60 models. The only other minor critique I would offer is that the ALO Reference 8 Westone Edition cables (which sound very good, by the way), use jackets that are relatively stiff and therefore transmit a fair amount of mechanical noise when they brush against garments or desktop objects. Apart from those minor points, though, the W80 is a world-class winner, pure and simple.”
