Hello hive mind,
I would like to tell you about my love&hate relationship with my one week old Beyerdynamic Amiron Home. It sounds really nice! I love to listen vocals, acoustics, pop, rock and anything that I have used to listen before and I am able to hear some details that I was not aware that exists. It was all great.
Until! Until I listen Hans Zimmer's Mountains from Interstellar Soundtrack. The song that I love, that inspires me that makes me happy and productive and etc. turned into a nightmare. It's like having your favorite meal and suddenly right in the middle seeing a giant dead bug . Forgive me for that unnecessary analogy but I've had to express my frustration.
So the actual problem is that there is this distortion, choppy sound or maybe even clipping? It exactly happens between 3:15 and 3:17 and also couple more times before than that I think. I used to listen with my modest Fiio E10k and yes I know it's not powerful enough for 250 ohm headphones and that is why today I received my JDS Labs Atom (thanks to this forum and still happy for that ) and used Fiio only as dac and voila problem still remains. It's audible when you listen them loud, can not measure the actual db but starts when Atom's volume is turned on more than half way, on low gain.
You will laugh at me because before I buy these headphones I went to Heilbronn Beyerdynamics HQ and listened some of my favorite songs except Mountains and only listened it when I got them from Amazon. I tried to reproduce it with different sort of headphones but I only have closed back ones and could not reproduce.
Can someone with another open back headphone maybe try this and tell me if same thing also happens to them? Or should I just return these because they are faulty? But is not it strange that this is the only song that I experience such thing? Sorry for the length of the post but really frustrated about it.
