I have since the beginning of the century, especially a headphone.
It is DF, which means Teutonic DiffusFeld Entzerrt, ie anechoic.
Therefore extremely clean, and optimal channel separation.
It is very comfortable, no need to adjust anything, but:
The connection from 3.5 to 6.3 screw screwed up very quickly on my copy, which totally ruined the sound. Solution: install a fitting quality standard gold.
The impedance is huge, 600 ohms per side (compared to 32 ohms for most stereo headphones ...)! Translation: you'll need a lot of juice to make it sound. Again, it is especially a professional product, so mixing desk, or better, specific headphone amp.
What is it? Well, to be mixed precisely the stereo image, and the return of mid-high range is very good. Attention, it n'enjolive nothing is not the goal.
The bass are not well represented, do not complete your mix with (as you compensate with the EQ's going to be very horrible to listen on any system once the mix is finished ...), then prudence. I think it is physically not possible to have the best of both worlds in one headphone.
However, I use to listen to cd or via a ULTRAFEX ULTRAMIZER (the psycho-acoustic behringer give you great bass and a spatial Dante) plus headphone amp and I can not do without this combination.
I also noticed that I could directly connect the output of Akg preamp tube (ULTRAGAIN 2200) and it sounds no other, surprising.
My advice: given the current price of headphones, many have it in (to your walkman, stereo, the overall mix, the mix space (the DF is king)) This will avoid many errors and wasted time. I see too many musicos with one headset for all, and of poor quality and more, it does not make sense to invest in a Porsche if you put wheels nice car ...
