    Oh no! The YH100 driver has an upper midrange peak that is incurable. You can see it in the graphs on Changstar. I tried everything, its from the driver. If you can rescind your offer I would try. Get a YH1 or HP1.

    If you want extra bass there’s a rare version of the HP1 called the Anistropic which has metal plates on either side of the driver like the YH100. So far I have found it to have less treble extension than the regular YH1/HP1 though. But pm me if you want to know how to get an aniso or I’ll sell you one of mine.

    Whoops... I was reading about how the YH100 has a stronger magnet (supposedly) than YH1 so that's what tipped me towards it. I can tolerate some upper mid push if I can also get some good bass out of it. Might try one of those other ones in addition!

    It’s kind of Grado-ish. But not as bad. The decay is still fast with the right mods.

    Given your sound preferences you might really like the rich, flat Yamaha sound. Beautiful vocals!

    Oh and thanks for the kind words! I worked on those Yamahas for a long time and learned a lot.
