Great bass, great mid, very good treble, great channel separation, detail. The best sound my ears have ever experienced and as the title says, it will probably stay with me for life.
Nothing has come close to the pure musicality of these headphones for me. I’ve tried over a dozen headphones and these had pretty much everything.
They had the best bass in a headphone I’ve ever experienced, I’ve owned headphones that had more quantity but they never gave the impact that the mahogany gave. It isn’t perfectly controlled and has a small amount of bleed, but I feel that makes them sound more organic. I never noticed any amount of distortion and I turned these up till they rattled on my head.
I can’t say much about the mids, other then they didn’t disappoint. I just didn’t feel they were missing anything there. I usually prefer a slight recess, to avoid shrill affects when turning the sound up, and these didn’t sound lacking or peaky in vocals and other sounds.
The highs are perfect for me, I’m very high tolerant and these didn’t sound dull. So they could be too bright to some, but to my ears it was just enough.
The stage too me was fairly small, and possibly more oval in shape? Which made imaging a bit weird. When listening to music they sounded intimate but large. When gaming, I found them to be pretty inaccurate. I only played two games with them, Fortnite and sea of thieves. One of those is not known for the best directional audio but they sounded beautiful none the less.
If you haven’t tried a pair of bio-dyna headphones, I urge you to give them a shot
That is……… if drop will ever sell them again 😩
These are beautiful and the sound is ridiculous. These could be used without an amp and a phone can power these puppies. Did I say these have bass!! Definitely comfortable on my bald head but I reserve these for home since they are rather large. A great buy but in my opinion I wish it came with a custom case.
These cans are, to my understanding, the Drop version of a much more expensive version of the same headphones from Fostex. They look absolutely great, the polished wood cups give them a very distinguished appearance. The comfort is also pretty good, surprisingly for a headphone of this size and weight.
Regarding the sound, they are one of my three favorite headphones! Their strength is definitely the bass. But apart from the low-frequency region, the rest of the spectrum is also very well served. A slight v-shaped signature, with brilliant, but never screaming or tingling highs, and vocals that sound very natural and clear. There is no sign of veiled or muffled sound, the whole spectrum sounds pretty much as it should. And then, this bass... Deep. contured and sufficiently precise. And above all, very pleasant. The spatial resolution is also pretty good, especially for a closed headphone, but there are better cans on the market in this discipline.
Overall, a very good and pleasant headphone, for a still accessible price tag.
These are not very comfortable to wear. The headband is very well padded, and the adjustment mechanism for the headband doesn't hold very well to my preferred headband size doesn't keep its position.
I also get a "pinging" sound from the headphones whenever there's a loud sound followed by quiet. It's quite annoying to listen to.
