strid3r Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I just got these in today after I got a good deal on eBay. I'm really surprised by how good these sound. It was hard to find information on these, but it seems they were released a few years ago (in 2003/2004). This is the japanese info page: http://www.audio-technica.co.jp/products/hp/pc/atc-ha4usb.html I was just wondering if anyone else had come across these in their audio journey? If I can make the NE mini-meet, I'd be happy to bring em along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomana Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I've never heard of them. With what would you compare them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strid3r Posted January 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Here are some quick pix (links cause they are semi-huge): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/richi3zz/IMG_5591.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/richi3zz/IMG_5589.jpg I've never heard of them. With what would you compare them? To be honest, I'm not sure what I would compare them to. I do know that I would not compare them to the other AT cans I've heard (A500/A900). I did not like either of those as I thought they had a lifeless midrange. That doesn't seem to be the case here. I will get back to you as I listen some more.

strid3r Posted January 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 After a little more listening, I feel these cans have a similar sound to the KSC-75's in that it has nice dynamics with an upfront sound. However, they are clearly a notch or two above the Koss. Comparing them to the KSC-75's, the treble is more detailed without any shrillness, the bass is improved both in quantity and quality, and the soundstage is slightly larger (although not quite on level with a HD580/600). Looks like I have the perfect laptop/work can... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
