Massdrop x HIFIMAN Edition XX Headphones

May 21, 2019

All you need is a high quality Digital Audio Player which connects directly or with a desktop or portable amp. The earpads are VERY large and very comfortable but sits on the head quite differently from most other headphones. The headphone is not lightweight but still feels quite light on the head. This is a very comfortable headphone. To be honest I do not like the cable that came with my Edition XX, I found very difficult to prevent it from recoiling back to its package state. I like my cables to be straight and somewhat rigid. However I have since ordered a replacement Periapt cable which looks awesome paired up with the head phone. Now the best part SOUND 😊😊 1. Bass: The sound is leaning somewhat to bass-lean side of things for some music. Certainly not basshead material but also not bass-shy. 2. Mids The mids are very realistic and instruments and voices do not sound coloured. Maybe a bit ‘forward’ and ‘open’ sounding. 3. Treble The Edition XX treble is just as good as the midrange. On some recordings there is a sharp ‘edge’ to the sound which distracts from the rest of the sound. There is no sibilance or ‘harsh’ treble though. Final thoughts: I am glad to have purchased these. The sound of the Edition XX outways the concerns of the headband. They are very comfortable and before you know it you don't realise its on you head. Well done Drop formerly (Massdrop)👍👍
