In Reply to: It seems that once you are a confirmed 'stat guy... posted by genungo on June 14, 2012 at 02:50:31:
Sounding like spy names. Big issue with most 'stats is their sound is largely defined by the amps, which have a tough time driving something like the 007, which I own. I can tune my system to accomplish amazing things on several fronts but can never have everything going all at once.
009 is easier to drive than 007, yet it still has some particular requirements out of amps, i.e. squeezing out bloom and musicality without losing that amazing control.
I am also partial to the old Senn 'stats Orpheus and Baby Orpheus, which are certainly flawed in terms of dynamic accuracy but do possess the magic.
IME, for me personally any of the 'stats above on their bad day is still preferable to the latest dynamic 'phones on their best day.
