What are you listening to Part Two
EJazz News Weekly Sampler #9 This week's is all about female vocalists. It includes a track by Melissa Stylianou I had read about her, but had never listened to her singing.

Audeze LCD-2
No worries, the curves only have certain resemblance for having an increase of the frequencies below 1KHz compared to the treble, but the DX have a bass boost which the LCD-2 don't seem to have. Also the treble extension seems much better on these.

It reminds me a bit of the DX-1000 curve. That's a sound signature which I can enjoy.

The FR chart seems promising, I wonder how accurate are those measurements: I'll be thankful if you could try them at CJ with a B22 or GS-1/GS-X and post impressions.

Miguel, it's not a matter of you liking crap. I think it's your listening habits. Since you listen at very low volume levels, you enjoy more cans delivering a bit of enhanced bass and crispier high frequencies. The R10, not even the "bass heavy" ones, weren't ever bass monsters. I believe the extra bass in the D5000 serve you better than the extra midrange richness and treble smoothness of the R10. For "normal" (ahem) people listening at "normal" volume levels is quite understandable they prefer the R10 though.

Both leak about the same, but haven't compared matching volume and using a SPL meter.

x2 The CD3000 are sibilant depending on the source and amp you use. Overall I find them less sibilant and more correct than D5000 (I can't stand the DT). I loved the CD3000 with a tube amp prototype I tried here, really wonderful, gorgeous midrange and a lot of weight in the bass. With the Gilmore Reference they sound more than acceptable for me. Hadn't I phones that I like better like the O2, R10 or PS1 I could live with them quite happily.
