Time for my full impressions of these headphones. I’ve been using them for little over a month at this point. I’ve got to say, this system is damn impressive. So much so, that I think these are my end game. That’s kinda the reason I’ve been putting this off for so long. When I listen to these, I am wanting for nothing. These have deep bass, smooth mids, crisp highs, top tier imaging, amazing detail, great soundstage, no veil, great comfort, and a great cable.
For some context on my sound preferences, the HD800S and ZMF Eikons are my go to headphones. I really like to hear lots of detail and wide soundstage. I also listen to a wide variety of music from electronic, classical, rap, r&b, jazz, blues, metal, rock, folk, new age, and whatever the heck Yosi Horikawa’s stuff is, just to name a few. So I prefer my headphones to be more tonally balanced to fit a wide range of music.I will be comparing the GL1200 to the HD800S and Eikons for this writeup. Here is my signal chain: PC→ Soekris dac1321 → Violectric v281 → (XLR line out) → Schiit Jotunheim R.
I’vebeen using the perforated pads for all my listening. WhenI first got the GL1200 and the Jot R, I plugged them up together and was verypleased that it worked right off the bat. There was very little information onwhether or not the amp would run these headphones. The first thing I noticedwas that the headphones were very detailed and there was quite a lot of energyin the treble. The bass was also laid back and kinda wonky sounding, especiallywith sine wave sweeps. But the imaging was astounding. I was so impressed, Iignored the sound signature weirdness and listened to a whole bunch of music.It was a weeknight, and I only listened for about an hour before going to bed. Overthe next few days, I started to notice the sound changing. The bass was gettingless laid back and the highs were calming down. After about a week or so, Ifigured out that turning off the Jot R every night was a bad idea. If I startthe amp cold and listen to it, the highs are very forward and harsh. Leaving iton mellows everything out, and the sound has been consistent ever since. Theheadphones NEED break in. When I first got them, I did a sine wave sweep andnoticed some weirdness. Around the 8 kHz range, there were channel imbalancesat very specific spots. After about 4 weeks of using the headphones everyday,the channel imbalance has gone away. Nowon to the meat and potatoes: BASS TheEikons have very good bass all the way down to 20 Hz. I don’t “feel” the basslike I do on the GL1200 though. It is much cleaner and more accurate than theGL1200, but it gets lost in the music. MIDS Anabsolute joy. It’s accurate, very detailed, and has bite without being overlysibilant or harsh. That is quite a feat! I am not super treble sensitive (Ilike the HD800S, so that should be pretty clear), but lots of music hassibilance issues. As someone who likes lots of detail, I tend to lean moretowards the brighter headphones. I found that this makes quite a bit of musicunplayable at louder volumes. Not with the GL1200. Songs that are much toosibilant with the HD800S or Eikons are significantly less painful. I canactually listen to pop music on these things with the volume up! OVERALLSOUND SIGNATURE Soundstageis not as wide as the HD800S (very few things are), but I would say it is aswide as the Eikons. I would describe the soundstage as natural. When I listento music through these, I feel like I’m in THE space. If a recording was donein a room, it sounds like I’m listening in a room. If it was done in a stuffystudio, well, the music sounds enclosed. Listening to the HD800S sounds likeI’m in A space. Almost everything sounds a bit exaggerated in terms of width.It’s sometimes difficult to tell how large the recording space actually wassince everything sounds super wide. The Eikons are closed backs, so they sounda little tunnel-like most of the time. Overall, I think the soundstage is verygood. I can very clearly hear room information and feel immersed in the music. IMAGING I’vetouched on this a little bit already, but these headphones are just as detailedas the HD800S and Eikons, but without needing to bump up the treble to do it. Ican hear every minute detail of a track, every crackle and pop, differentmicrophones fading in and out, etc. Instrument separation is also superb aswell. Every instrument has it’s own spot in the soundstage and nothingoverlaps. DYNAMICS/TIMBRE Theseare superior to the HD800S in competitive gaming. Yup, no question. The lessexaggerated soundstage, amazing imaging, and sound separation lets you heareverything even in the heat of a firefight. In regular games with great worldsand soundscapes, I would still give the edge to the GL1200. The fact that theseheadphones have great bass make the sound effects and soundtracks much moresatisfying to listen to. The super wide soundstage on the HD800S makesenvironments a bit more more immersive, up until you realize that while you canhear the crack of lightning, you won’t feel the rumble of thunder.

我认为GL1200铝带耳机有一个惊人的声音特征。在整个声谱中都非常均匀。没有什么比其他东西更响亮,没有什么能掩盖其他东西。这意味着如果我想要更多的东西,就把音量调大!我感觉不到高音谋杀,尖叫,或低音膨胀在大声的音量。我可以用这些耳机从字面上摧毁我的听力并享受它。GL1200的声音特征上是Eikons是封闭的,所以他们的声音有点像大多数时间隧道。总的来说,我觉得音效很好。我能很清楚地听到房间信息,感觉沉浸在音乐中。
成像
太神了。成像相当的精确。你会想再听一遍你所有的音乐,听听你错过了什么。由于GL1200上的驱动器非常大,因此存在HD800或Eikons上不存在的垂直度。声音可以来自上下,而不仅仅是左右。他们感觉是三维的,而其他一切感觉都是二维的。
细节/分离
我已经接触过这一点,GL1200是一样详细的HD800和Eikons,但不需要提高高音来做到这一点。我可以听到每一个轨道的每一分钟细节,每一个噼啪声和流行,不同的麦克风淡入淡出,等等。乐器分离也非常出色。每个乐器在声场上都有自己的位置,没有重叠。
动态/音色
动态比HD800好,我会给Eikon一个优势。但是Eikon是封闭的,所以这有点不公平。不过,我听的很多音乐的动态范围都很差,所以我不能在这里提供太多的比较。我要说的是,在玩电子游戏时,声音会变得非常响亮,比HD800更响亮。
总的来说,我不是很有经验,所以我对什么是好音色并没有真正的把握。在我看来,这些耳机没有什么奇怪或金属的声音。
游戏 这些耳机太棒了。正如我之前所说,当我把GL1200放在我的头上时,我的经历中没有什么遗漏。音乐、游戏和电影在我的书中听起来很完美。我可以戴这些东西一整天,不会感到疲劳的声音或身体。我想我已经走到了尽头…任何不完整的东西。
如果你喜欢HD800或Eikon,而且你口袋里有2200美元的烧钱,那就搞一个,你不会后悔的(当然,煲音之后)。如果你喜欢更悠闲的声音和更多的低音,嘿,拿起这些无论如何,并连接扬声器放大器。不过,这些东西很挑剔。 JotunheimJotunheim R定制适配器电缆
