Pushing the boundaries of planar magnetic design, Gold Planar is going big in the GL2000: a flagship pair of headphones with never-before-seen drivers. Raising the bar head and shoulders over many other planar magnetic drivers, Gold Planar increased the surface area and magnet strength of the drivers on the GL2000 to optimize airflow and responsiveness Read More

They're plenty loud and have the necessary bass to appease bass-lovers. When paired with an amp and/or dac they will satisfy most consumers. So what's the problem? the vocals just seem distant, and at times, muffled on most songs IMO. And they are definitely open back headphones. the sound bleeds straight through them and are more so private listening cans. More expensive cans will obviously outperform these. The arya stealth magnets are my daily drivers i would recommend those over the GL2000 if you can afford them. The focal clears are also probably technically better also but they can't handle bass-heavy music. However i would still recommend the GL2000 because they do a lot of thing right and they are (relatively) competitively priced (lol if that makes sense).
These are more neutral than most planars I own and they make up for it with good detail retrieval. But as others have noticed, these are a little heavy and therefore fatiguing to wear.
For the price, they aren't really worth it. They're a fun headphone and one I'm happy to have in my collection. I just don't get to listen to them that often because my girlfriend uses them as her main pair of headphones.
I had them paired with the iFi Zen Dac v2 but they're currently powered by a Multi-bit Jotunheim 1
Sound quality is absolutely perfect, haven't ran into any issues with the product, quick easy delivery that arrived exactly on date, and they are the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn!
My gl 2000 double magnetic circuit version, sounds good, but the problem is that it started making small wired annoying sounds, even when I unplug the headset. I have never had this problem on any other headset before, so i was checking with the manufacturer about the problem for a possible warranty/repair. But ofc there's another problem... the homepage of gl is down as I write this, and has been for the past few days. in conclusion, I'm stuck with this expensive headset that I don't like or want. therefor i can't recommend this product, don't take the risk.
