Lyre V2 | @yakucho.

So... Review Time for the Lyre V2... i got it on Friday (from the Louner Tour). They come with a nice Hard Case with an Unit Card inside (where you can see the Measurements of the unit itself), The Headphone ofc, and a 3,5mm cable. (Quarter inch Adapter would be cool)

I Like the Design of the Lyre v2, looks a bit like an Audeze but a different stylistic theme. I put them on my head and yep. Comfy. That are also the first leather earpads i like personally. Adjusting height is easy and feld good.

Now to the Part that matters the most imo. SOUND Plugged it into my Topping D70Sabre/A70 Stack into the unbalanced quarter Inch and played some tunes.. hooollyy fff.... These sound different. Like no other Planar i have tried. They are really Vocal forward and have this one unique characteristics i cannot really describe. The Imaging and Soundstage where stupidly awesome. Something i absolutly not expected lol. It just blew me away how they just played the music i love. After listening to all my test tracks etc i tried out to take some stuff further and started EQing. That was also the moment where i realised the Headphone doesn't do Planar Typical stuff... i havent noticed any Bass rolloff or Planar Boost in the lows when the Seal was broken. It is like an Dynamic in that situation. i started play with the EQ. Changing stuff that my ears love to do but i don't like . and Boom. It just got better... They respond VERY well to EQ. i even tested just for fun a 12dB boost at 20Hz and a Q of 0.2 and uhhh... Heard no Distortion? wtf? didn't even knew that a open back Planar could do THAT heavy bass so easly! Im just mind blowing HOW they just sound like that...

Also one thing i noticed is. If the music is mixed well. They can sound somewhat like speakers.. Just so weird, Its "somewhat" a speaker with no crossfeed (because its still a headphone)....

If i describe the Sound signature to what i hear. It is a neutral tuning with a little bit of nice "sparkle" in the air.

Conclusion: Awesome work. God i love these headphones. For myself... One of the best headphones i have ever heard They are Comfy. and look nice imo. Also i cannot compare them to anything else out of my head right now.. 

9.5/10 for me
