Puro Sound Lab BT2200 Wireless On-Ear Headphones Reviewed

” Performance-wise, the BT2200 serves up a generally well-balanced sound that doesn’t over-emphasize the highs or the lows. I would classify the high end as being a little laidback: I didn’t hear harshness or brightness in the highs of Chris Cornell’s “Seasons,” Junior Kimbrough’s “Junior’s Place,” or Peter Gabriel’s “Sky Blue,” but the high frequencies also fell back a bit in the mix, lacking the clarity, crispness, and openness that I get from my much more expensive reference”

STAX SR-L700 HEADPHONE $1400 REVIEW
August 18, 2016 Comments Off on STAX SR-L700 HEADPHONE $1400 REVIEW
“If you require a full-sized headphone that delivers a high degree of isolation, none of the Stax open-enclosure designs are going to work for you. But currently none of the other models I’ve mentioned that are in contention for “best” headphone are closed-enclosure designs. As of right now, if isolation is your top priority, you may either have to opt for a custom in-ear monitor or compromise with a headphone that’s not quite as spatially open, harmonically uncolored, or detailed as the Stax SR-L700.

Sennheiser HD 800S Headphones – Review
August 15, 2016 Comments Off on Sennheiser HD 800S Headphones – Review
“I don’t own an original HD 800, so I visited my friend Michael Toto at Stereo Exchange in NYC to compare the store’s HD 800 with the HD 800 S. Plugged into a Chord Hugo headphone amp/DAC, the HD 800 S is sweeter on top and fuller on the bottom, but both headphones share a big-as-outdoors soundstage. The HD 800 S takes a bit of the edge off overcompressed recordings, while the HD 800 lets you hear every last bit of the harshness. With pristine audiophile recordings, I preferred the HD 800.”

MRSPEAKERS ETHER C HEADPHONES REVIEW
August 8, 2016 Comments Off on MRSPEAKERS ETHER C HEADPHONES REVIEW
“Taken as simply a new headphone without respect to previous versions (as it should be), the ETHER C Flow is a phenomenal performing effort and has clearly raised the bar for planar magnetic headphones. It has amazing speed and accuracy, excellent tonal balance and dynamic range, as well as, controlled and deep bass extension. ”

Audeze Sine On-Ear Headphones Review
August 7, 2016 Comments Off on Audeze Sine On-Ear Headphones Review
“The Audeze Sine sounds clear. It sounds detailed. It is so many things that audiophile headphones aspire to be, but don’t always achieve. Its also rests on the ear, which can affect long term comfort but is hardly something that can be avoided within the design restrictions. At $499, it’s also pretty expensive for a supraaural, but the cheapest Audeze ever made. The win for consumers is that a heck of a lot of Audeze came down to play in the sandbox, with perhaps a little refinement gleaned from a few good years under the belt making stellar-sounding headphones. If you are currently looking for a detail-oriented on-ear headphone, I can’t think of one that even comes close to the performance of the Sine.”
