The last portable set before the es7?
March, with Mark in Japan. The ATH-FC700s (which I'm now selling to Mark).
What are construction headphones?
Another thing I wanted to ask you guys btw, at least those actually reading this thread still
Do you prefer strong bass or more rounded but less powerful bass? It's because you have to choose between something that'll make your head vibrate or something that has more definition and clarity, but doesn't leave much of an impact. Oftentimes it'll make you think, "wow this headphone has really weak bass!"
Also, do you prefer bright mids or neutral recessed ones? Meaning music that'll just jump at you and make you go O__O or sound that you'll get used to slowly, but doesn't sound as fatiguing after a while? It's usually more evident in female vocals and guitar portions of rock recordings.
