... the bass frequencies (or any single ASPECT of any kind, for that matter) seem to be ***the strong point*** of a pair of headphones, that is when I know that something fundamentally important is missing. At the very least, such an indication
Don't get me wrong. I feel that any pair of headphones is going to have it's strengths, as well as it's shortcomings. But one of the things I like about the 701 is that it is one of the most coherent sounding headphones I've heard. In this case, "coherency" implies that select frequency range(s) rarely seem to overpower other parts of the frequency range.
When the frequency arc is ***subjectively smooth*** (regardless of the actual measurements) the gateway to Audio Nirvana no longer seems to be fronted by the Hounds of Hell. This is very comforting feeling to have.
