Sony MDR-Z7 High Resolution headphones with 70mm high definition driver units (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have tested the new Sony headphones with the following equipment:
Tascam DA-3000 (Master Recorder, signal source)
Sony Tablet Xperia S (source)
FiiO Kunlun (DAC / headphone amp)
Lehmann Audio Rhinelander (Headphone Amplifier)
Bowl with Behringer Meßmikros, software Hobbybox 6.7 (actually for speakers)
Non-standard!

Music: (and why)
"Daft Punk", Pentatonix (space)
"Driver's Seat", Sniff 'N' The Tears (dynamic impulse)
"Down in the Hole", John Campbell (bass, voice)
"Sing", Ed Sheeran (voice)
"Beethoven: Symphony No.9 'Choral', Daniel Barenboim & Staatskapelle Berlin (spatiality, dynamics)

Measurement technology is striking a light "bath" in the bass-midrange,
what can be confirmed by the hearing test. The headset plays nevertheless very analytical and
with great precision, but with a slight emphasis on the bass range, which I personally
However, like good, because it is a pleasant tonal heat up. (Especially with the Kunlun)
Otherwise, the Sony plays very neutral and balanced.
The soundstage is simply mind-boggling. Every voice, every instrument
is a clear position assigned and the typical headphones in-head localization is significantly reduced.
Impulse and dynamic response are at a high level, one never has the feeling that the music would bring the
Headphones in distress.

My conclusion: Great headphones, definitely take the short list!
(I liked better than a Audeze LCD XC)
