Earphone / Headphone

These pair of headphones have opened my ears to a wider genre of music. What I thought to be songs that were poorly mixed & mastered turned out to be properly mixed songs. No wonder those songs were topping the Japanese charts. As expected from Audio-Technica, the details are crisp & clear. I am actually hearing new stuff on songs that I have listened to hundreds of times before. The soundstage is also wide. If you're a fan of Audio-Technica headphones & earphones, and you want to hear more bass that's detailed & you think that other open-back headphones have too much bass, then I suggest you give the ATH-AD900x a try.

I immensely enjoy the WARP (Wide Area ReProduction - like experience hearing sound from speakers) system from Artio products such as CR-V1 and CR-M1. It presents a much bigger soundstage, which I personally prefer. CR-S1 has the same big soundstage (A bit smaller than the flagship models.) and well-balanced sound. It has a v-shape and warm sound signature. Bass is plenty and impactful, and high is soft, not too harsh. It is light-weight and comfortable. Another great product from Artio that you can get at an affordable price.
