The Technologically Impressive LCD-4 Planar Magnetic Headphone
A technological tour de force. But sound quality is the question.

A beauty more than skin deep, the Caeden Linea No. 10 sounds as good as it looks.
They say it's all about the stories. Well here's another chapter for a venerable and storied headphone.
I'd love to meet a super-model with a good head on her shoulders. But being an old dude, I'll happily settle for the way-more-than-skin-deep beauty of the Meze 99 Classics.
In the end I think these are pretty good for a wireless headphone, but you're going to have to wade through a lot of mixed feelings from me to get there.
The room was crazy loud at CES last year, but even through the cacophony the new dual-driver (dynamic/electret) Enigmacoustics Dharma had something special.
The question is how special?
The most modified headphone in the hobby, now modified by its maker. A terrific job, and done in a way virtually impossible for DIYers to achieve, but continues to allow similar modifications as the previous model.
It seems to me hobbyists have an excellent new starting platform for another round of modding!
I spent all day yesterday measuring the two different pads with four filters each of the Torque t402v headphone.
Some things just don't go as expected.
I'd like to believe that neutrality, low-distortion, and excellence in transient response is what leads to a satisfying listening experience.
The HE1000 makes me question that belief.
When I get stopped in my tracks I just need to say something.
