I get that different headphones are geared toward different types of music or tastes. But I don’t understand why there isn’t a generic set of headphones with “normal” everything that is just all around realistic, has enough base, has sound stage. I feel every headphone I read about is good but has significant drawbacks that you have to look past? Like why can’t the HD 800s have a version that isn’t cripplingly low on bass? That’s just one example but it seems every time I get excited about a pair of headphones there is some massive red flag whether it’s wierd trebel, bass, tone, being unrealistic, etc.
Only drawback is that they’re much more expensive it you live in Europe :(
Customs fees, man. These import laws are nothing more than theft.
Might get a ZMF pair once I’m done with uni.
I got hit pretty hard in Canada as well.
Rip… I will get a pair as soon as I’m done with university… Maybe even while still at it, I don’t know. Pretty rough to save up for something that costs as much as a pretty good vacation trip.
The Auteur classic costs about 1700-1800€ here and the Atrium goes for 2500€ minimum. ZMF November is probably always the best option, but eh, my gf would probably kill me if I’d blow my tax return from when I was still working full-time on a pair of high end headphones lol.
