Audio Technica Headphones?
10/29/15 at 02:42:27

I have been looking at this page http://www.audio-technica.com/cgi-bin/product_search/headphones/headphones_cat.p...
and wondering if there is anything here that forum users have familiarity with.

Model ATH-A2000X is especially appealing to me with it's description of "unmatched expressive power and incredible sonic detail". Also, with my limited experience of headphones, I have preferred closed back models. In the few open and closed models of various brands I have used (all much less expensive than these) the tone was much more naturally balanced in the closed models.

I've heard some Audio Technica cans prefer low impedance output from the amp. I think the Taboo III has this as an option. But how about the Taboo II with low impedance cans?

Reply #3 - 07/07/17 at 03:24:16 All Taboos have always been low impedance amplifiers capable of driving almost a dead short. That is why it was such a natural decision to repurpose the Taboo from what was originally a speaker amplifier into a headphone amplifier that can easily drive planar headphones.

However, by today's headphone standards (technology moves on) they don't have as much bass/punch. Also, because of their design, be sure to try a pair on your skull to see if it fits well.
