Wow, these broke in really fast. The bass got better after only an hour after listening. Pop and electronic music sound great on these

MafiaTacosI burned mine in for about 12 hours after some incredible disappointment out of the box and the degree of difference between our of box and now is seriously staggering.

NeddogeHey Ned,
glad you got your pair. I am the guy that was also asking about the X2 for gaming, movies and music. So far, how do you feel the jump from the Fidelio X2 to the TH-X00? would love to hear what you think about it, and the bass too.
Can't wait to get my pair :)
Best Regards, IHQ

IhaveaquestionHey dude!
So I don't actually own a pair of X2, my other daily driver is the HE-400i. The difference is night and day between these two, with this V-Shaped FR. My thumpier music is significantly more fun (Eminem, The Glitch Mob, etc.) when compared against my neutral, deadly-accurate HE-400i.
The X2 are known for the comfort and soundstage, both of which would demolish these THX00 cans. I think these are uncomfortable as shit, with the weight sitting on the center of my middle skull on the band. I'm used to the Support Band from the HE-400i so it was a downgrade with these arc supported headphones (I have similar pain with the Bose QC25). The soundstage is laughably narrow, I truly cannot discern anything with my limited testing in a couple video games thus far. I haven't watched a movie yet, but I've used them for TV and they're pretty good. I haven't had the need for them to shine yet, what with the first couple episodes of Taboo being somewhat reserved, but I know these will shine there. I also haven't tried running them without an AMP (I use the Magni2Uber), but that will be next on my to-do.
I wanted a pair of X2 for the comfort and soundstage, but realizing that I more or less have that in my HE-400i has kept me from buying a 3rd set in 3 months o.o
These cans itch those basehead moments without a doubt! Especially with a little (read: little) EQ bumping in the lower freqs. I'm not sure which can I love more for Pink Floyd's stuff -- which is a great problem to have :) Hope this helped some!

NeddogeNice, thanks for the description bud. It's greatly appreciated :).
Glad you're enjoying the cans. Seems like those are what I wanted for sure.
