    Funny how subjective audio is. I have the LCD-X/HD800s/Empyrean1/ and a few other extra noodly sets lying around, I genuinely find my self listening to my empyreans more than any other headphone I have with the occasional jump to my HD800s for video games and the LCD-X for movies while the Empyreans are used for music. So I guess empy 1 would be in S/A for me. These are all being run off of the D70/A70 stack(Empyrean/LCDX) and Cayin HA-6A(HD800s/Everything else)

    So, I bought this headset summer of 2023. I need a headphone that felt as an upgrade to my Fidelio X2HR. Now there are plenty of upgrades to that in terms of quality, but when it comes to soundstage the X2HR is actually pretty good. The upgradepath most obvious was the Hifiman Sundara. Now I've somewhat large ears so I wanted a more oval shaped headphone. The Edition XS. It is amazing. I've heard details I've never heard on the X2HR. It was great. Except for the headband. Now I wear L/XL caps to give an idea of the size of my head, and even in the lowest position this headphone would not fit correctly. The earcups would be slightly lower. Also the headband is simply not comfortable for longer sessions. Me personally can have sessions of 6-8 hours. The Edition XS becomes annoying. So...I got rid of it a while ago and back on my Fidelio X2HR. Not sure what I'm going to buy next.

    My first try on px8 was few months ago, and i could not believe i was listening to the well named b&w headphones...the sound profile was soooo weird and unpleasant that i actually suspected that someone custom EQed it before. Later did i got notice that unlike most headphones, the eq customization of the px8 "follows" the headphone instead of the app(aka the phone) that you used to custom it. Despite i didnt try it again to confirm this info, i really hope that some weird customization has been done to that demo i listened to, because that experience was really surprisingly unpleasant.

    • @samcooper664
      @samcooper664 2 дні тому

      Having heard both, personally I would probably take the Azurys. At less than half the price, it's tuned slightly better with a less fatiguing treble response and mild subbass lift over the Celestee. The Celestee sounds a bit punchier in the midbass but in my opinion that's not really worth the extra $450. The other thing to consider is that the Celestee has a larger headband and cups which may be more comfortable for you, but also would make it harder to transport since the case is nearly twice the size.

    There is no ANC compensation for leakage. It simply just has a different tonal balance when the ANC is turned off. Even if the seal was perfect, turning on and off the ANC changes the tonal balance.

These headphones are a Unicorn, unobtanium, call it what you will. They are unlike ANYTHING else you have ever heard. Do yourself a favour and listen to them if you ever get a chance!
