    Well, having cancelled my LCD-5 order as it wasn’t going to arrive in time likely for the long term trip I have coming up. That left me with a bit of a quandry about headphones. I wanted to take something a bit lighter and easy to drive than the Abyss and Susvara, so I ended up picking up a pair of Empyrean locally used. I got what I felt was a fair price, and they meet the needs of

    A) Easy as heck to drive
    B) Comfy

    I was curious about how they would sound, as they have sort of faded into the background of the overall headphone conversation, with the general consensus seeming to be that their build and comfort are epic, but lack a bit in terms of resolution and overall SQ.

    I can definitely say the build quality is great, and they are so comfortable.

    In terms of sound, I’ll have to report back in a little while after some good listening. I definitely think I’ll need to do a bit (or a lot?) or tweaking with EQ to get them more in line with my preferences, but I think these will definitely fit the bill for the next few months. I’m looking forward to spending more time with them and getting to know them better.
