B&W MM-1

Sound

Has anyone tried these out? Seems to be in a price range between the Audioengines and the Quads. With a built in USB DAC and headphone amp, the feature list looks pretty good.

Doesn't have a DAC or amp or anything, but have you considered something like a pair of these in the same price range?

I might be getting a pair of MMGs for the apartment (maybe the office ) next year so I think I got the big 2x monolithic speakers part sorted out

Do they play anything besides the theme to 2001?

Has anyone heard the B&Ws?

[jinp6301]

yes. i am not a fan of the sound signature but they isolate much better than any other closed headphone ive tried

but iirc, filburt likes them quite a bit

I'm asking about the speakers.

[jinp6301]

I'm going to blame it on being awake for 36 hours

I actually liked the headphones when I tried them, but only listened for about 30 seconds.

That's 25 seconds longer than the average HeadFier posting a review.
