ES3X and LiveWires Trips
Once again I’ll say that the ES3X and the Trips both sound identical to me. They are a bit mid focused, have excellent extension in the highs, and nice fast bass that can really pound when called to do so. Going into this I had assumed that the 1964-T would consistently have a higher quantity of bass but upon direct comparison that was oddly not always the case. Part of the problem is that the ES3X is so sensitive. Switching back and forth required constant volume adjustment to even things out, or else the discrepancy would make it seem like the ES3X was more impactful and full bodied. Once I figured this out and took more care in level matching it did get better, I still couldn’t quite explain what I was hearing. Some tracks seemed to have more punchy bass with the ES3X, and other times the 1964-T was more robust. What I did find consistent was that the ES3X gives a slight enhancement to the mid range, while the 1964-T is more neutral. The ES3X also has sharper highs, which sometimes sounds like more detail and other times sounds a little harsh. They make you feel closer to the performance, while at the same time giving a more expanded three dimensional soundstage. In contrast the 1964-T feels more distant, which to the optimist could be called relaxing and to the pessimist could be called less engaging. I was split down the middle as far as which one I liked more often on my high end gear, but on basic gear I almost always preferred the 1964-T as it helped hide the flaws that the ES3X would shine a spotlight on. I’m still a bit frustrated that I can’t better describe the bass issue though. I guess it is more of an issue with the ES3X than the 1964-T, since the former seemed to do the fluctuating and the latter was always consistent. In any case, bass performance was universally pleasing on both models despite this odd fluctuation.

Navíc JH13 a ES3X nejsou jeho, ale jeho bratra
