Did you like the VC? How long did you have it?
I owned it for a couple of months and compared it extensively with the Focal Stellia, which was the one I kept in the end. Reasons were partly based on practical considerations, since the Focal worked better with my DAP, which was my preferred usage scenario for a closed headphone. The VC definitely needs better amplification. But even with my amp, the ifi pro iCan, I still prefered the Stellia overall, it was much livelier and dynamic in the upper registers. I also preferred the Stellia’d polished, industrial design, but that’s very subjective- some friends loved the VC design. As a glasses wearer, the Stellia was more comfortable for me.
