Elephas Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 I picked up the ATH-ESW9 today. Out of the box I think it's better than the ES7. No one interested in the ESW9? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elephas Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Oh, no, another spanking. Here's the ES7 and the ESW9. The ES7 comes with a cloth pouch while the ESW9's is thicker pleather. I keep both in black zipper semi-hardshell cases. I also got some replacement 3D Wing foam pads.

Elephas Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 How many headphones do you own now? 40? *looks innocent, mamma is watching* Whatever do you mean? I only have a Bose Triport and Ultrasone 2500. These photos are Photoshopped, and my posts are just repeating stuff I've read on Head-Fi. I might tell you the truth if you sell me a Qualia cheap. Not so cheap is OK too. Somebody slap some sense into me, I can't stop listening to Rihanna - Umbrella! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about getting the original Omega for your collection? 40 is for amateurs... Dang...I only have 39. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elephas Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm looking for Qualia too, but they are difficult to come by. How about getting the original Omega for your collection? I've got the SR-Omega, the Qualia is the last headphone I'm looking for. No, but you should be punished for posting pictures of yet another black headphone that no-one told me about, goddamnit! So...how are they? But they're not all black. There's reddish-colored wood there, you know. You can go for the A950LTD. I'm burning in the ESW9 now, but it's more refined and has a larger soundstage than the ES7. Also bass is more well-integrated and not as boomy as the ES7's. Neither can compete against the full-size AT's though, but they're great for portable use. I also like the Senn HD25-1. Both the HD25-1 and ES7 are more closed-in and congested vs. the ESW9.

You can go for the A950LTD.I meant the ES7's, but I think I just realized those are the mirror-finished ones. And: they should be shipping this week.

JimP Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Elephas, Just curious what amps are you using with your ATs, or which do you find optimal - especially with your L3000 and W5000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephas Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm currently using the AT-HA5000, I think it matches well with all the AT's. Sometimes I also use the RSA Raptor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
