    I very much enjoyed the previous iteration of the Aeon Flow Open compared to the new one. There are some things that the 2 does a bit better (sound stage and lower end bass) but the Aeon Flow Open had that HD650 FR. The Aeon Flow Open 2 bass is just too much.

    Yeah Aeon 2 Opens upper bass is completely overwhelming. On a technical level it was exceptional, but its held back so much by its FR. After EQ it was good, ultra detailed but a little boring, the RT is more fun and needs EQ less.

    I'm looking at the Aeon Open RT as well. Any idea how it compares to the closed version?

    You can check out the soundstage solo review of the Aeon RT closed, he liked the closed more than the open. Looking at the FR charts, I think the closed version is closer to "neutral" than the open while the open is more V shaped. Open has more upper bass for sure. I still havent tried any of DCAs closed headphones, but they seem to be higher regarded than the open versions generally.
