    Very interesting headphones, according to people who heard them they're nice but bright...in the right hands (or ears?) it could be a home run.

    @9suns They're about as bright as an unmodded HD800, but the bright spot is higher up in the FR and there's maybe a bit more midbass. These definitely sound 'faster' and more microdynamic than HD800, but with a narrower image. First mods to try are some thicker but perforated pads, ear-side materials on the baffle, maybe TP, and on the rear - cotton / foams / dynamat.

    Good to know! It certainly has the chops to be amazeballs, like a 420 ohms impedance, a big ass dynamic driver and a super nice build/very low weight. AT has shitloads of money for R&D, with the right direction/sound in mind the results could be incredible.
