#heavys #Metalheadphones #review - Наука та технологія
It's clear you don't normally listen to metal. Why do a review?
Hahaha, that's the best comment in the last couple of months I've gotten on this channel, thanks for that. I'd love to know where you've gotten the impressions from, that I did not listen to metal. Please, enlighten me.
@LeechTM I'm super new here. Do you? I'm not a metal head but enjoy it every once in a while.
@@typicalguardian2214 I do! I played in a Metalcore Band for over 10 years, and at least 70% of all Music i consume is in the broader Metal genre.
@LeechTM right on, also I already got the Heavys. Pretty good quality 👍
As soon as I heard your accent, I knew I could trust your opinion on metal.
That’s new 😂😂
I was thinking the same thing …. Cool accent… I just ordered mine today!!!! On your review.
100% reason i stayed
I have both and I do find myself grabbing the heavys more often than the xm5s. Another point, you can continue to listen via bluetooth while they are charging on the usb C cable. This makes them much more usable to me.
the USB-C Listening is a great Addition to the Headphones.
Actually that is a great feature 👌
the xm5s are trash so there a little better then trash. Thing ill just buy some audeze
Ordered mine the 11th of December, I got them on the 20th!. Regards from Sydney Australia!.
Thanks a lot for this video, great quality of production as well. I got the "we're preparing the order" email a couple of weeks ago, but for what I see I still have another month or so of wait haha. As a regular user of xm5 and metalhead (glad to see Erra on the vid!) I'm really looking forward to try on the heavys!
the first time i was wearing them, the sound was kinda weird. Because it sounded so different to what i was used to with the xm5. Its great fun re-experiencing your favourite music with the Heavys.
Hey dude, did you end up getting the Heavy’s? I listen to Metal and want some headphones that are beefy.
I´m one of the backers myself. Love these headsphones. Great sound, nice to wear, great battery life and the case is actually not that big. One thing that no one mentions, but is actually the greatest feature (which MX4 and MX5 ever mastered) is the dual bluetooth connectivity.
I use my Heavys for work where they are constantly connected to my laptop and phone at the same time. It works - fails sometimes if I switch to quickly between devices, but most of the time it isn´t a problem.
So I can proudly wear my Heavys at work, with the statement that they really do support my daily work, where I often switch between devices.
Got mines for a month now.
I have many other medium and high end headphones (Audio Technica, Senheiser, Sony, Technics, AKG, Grado....), but for the punch and grease of metal, it's really the ones I enjoy the most, especially, for death, thrash and bands with a rasp sound, the mediums punches make me smile often like a kid.
It reminds me of my Ultimate Ears Triple Fi wich where rellly good for metal too (and I still use occasionally).
For the Kickstater price, they are fabulous, I don't regret a second. And even at retail price, I don't see a set I'd exchange it to and woud put the price without hesitation.
To feel a gap you have to really put a lot a more money, and most don't have this raw live power we find here.
Special mention to the power on/off/connect/hellblocker voice, it's glorious.
Now make us some nice shells on a budget.
Yes. Those Shells are what im looking forward as well. Especially some that are more than just stickers, and more fluent, spiky or something similar.
I have been a total opposite. my heavys have been put away as gimicky meh. i prefer my meze 99 classics and thieaudio ghost. i dont really care for anc headphone tech and was hoping these would be much more amazing with those features turned off and more analytical. instead i have some lossy sound that makes me favor continuing to use audiophile headphones with cable rather than these overweight monsters. I'm not saying it's bad but it definitely has a colored sound i'd like more imaging and clarity and dynamics. maybe with eq it will do better but i dont want to be handling eq all the time. i actually found them better for jazz than metal in some cases
@@OniOfChaos Yes, I now use them only for death and thrash like bands, it emphases the raw power. For the rest I use my usual audiophile ones. But clearly they are not on the same price range. I don't see any pick I would make on the Kickstarter price of the heavys.
I have these and i think they're fantastic, and honestly especially with jazz and funk but with metal they sound great
Its a well balanced Headphone in terms of Sound, they did a good job with it.
After this review I am fully convinced that I will purchase Heavys as my next headphones, because that full sound that I hear in the comparison part via my AT ATH-M50x (or speakers of the MacbooK Air M1, LOL) looks so damn fun. Probably I will use an EQ with added trebles but that low end/mid range sounds like hell :) Great job, and thank you for the review :)
your welcome, have fun with your new Headphones.
I got mine Wednesday and I'm very happy with them. They are not shy about the bass, but to my ears it adds depth and thump, but not fuzzy like the Sony XM4's stock tuning.
The highs are good, the mids and clear, the bass is strong but crisp. These have a very energetic sound signature.
I've listened through albums by Metallica, Iron Maiden, In Flames, Pain, Judas Priest, Muse, At The Gates, Devin Townsend, Rammstein, Arch Enemy, Tool, Eskimo Callboy and more. Everything has sounded great!
Always used them with my Apple TV to watch movies.
I've listened almost exclusively wireless to HiFi with Deezer for music.
As for the cable, I was so sure it was 3.5mm on the headphones themselves, might have to check that again, my Kickstarter order did come with a cable (not sure if it makes a difference, but I ordered the bundle with a Case, maybe had the AUX with it there too?)
I'm a guitarist and also enjoy playing games.🎸Recently, my headphones broke, and I'm planning to buy new ones.🎧
I'm currently researching which headphones would suit me best. I came across this pair, and it seems badass.
However, there are fewer unboxing videos maybe because it's a new brand. As of now, I've only found your comprehensive sound test for Heavys H1H, including ANS and sound comparison. It's not just describing the sound quality, and you did an excellent job!
Man if your on PC get a HD650 or LCD2 by Audeze then get you a decent DAC and Amp and thank me later these will enhance the immersion factor 10 fold and if you don't want to go through getting a amp a hd490 it DT177x go off of do they are phenomenal the DT177x is my console headset and I love them
Is it possible to use this headphones as multichannel (e.g. 5.1) sound card? I guess through USB connection of course. Thanks.
Haha richtig geil "the Pommes Gabel in hell“
BTW richtig super Video!
Danke mario 😂
@LeechTM what is the song at the start and when you reviewed the sound???
Love the ERRA shot
best Band.
I'm listening to this video with Bose QuietComfort Ultras and I think the Heavys have more bass than the Sony's, but the Sony's have much better clarity and instrument separation. The Heavys sound muddy and cheap compared to the Sony headphones in my opinion. That said, part of me wants a pair since I do listen to a lot of metal. But the bigger part of me knows I have wired headphones that will blow these away. Great video, dude!
Do a mark levinson 5909 vs focal bathys sound quality review
I wish I could test a pair before ordering. On the binaural samples, they sounded quite mid-heavy, where the Sonys seemed to have a lot more clarity in the highs / upper mids.
You can always order a pair and send them back if you don’t like them.
I own a pair of Sony MDR XB1000's since 2011. Theyre large 70mm driver headphones. I run them through my reciever while gaming or if im on the go, i run a headphone audio amplifier attached to my phone.
I know alot of people have been talking about these headphones but im pretty skeptical.
Like i can plug my headphones into a reciever on max volume and literally hear my phones two entire floors away. The issue is they bleed ALOT so you do lose alot of audio due to that.
Everyone around you will be hearing your music clear as day from up to 20ft away.
I love my Xb1000s. I paid about $280 for them when they came out. But the heavys have caught my eye.
Been looking for something to replace my sanhieser HD 4.40bt since i dont want to travel around with my steelseries nova pros
I'm still using my Sony XM2's and I was thinking about upgrading but unsure if its worth the money?
you can always buy them, and then if they dont fit your needs, send them back.
I got mine about 3 weeks ago and without Wavelet app, they are just super average headphones, heavy headphones. Don't know if I'm used to all my other different headphones, but these just don't have highs and mids. With Wavelet compensation they sound fine, don't feel that heavy on head (only in hand) and look different. What I hate is the final choise of earcup covers - during the campaign they looked more like pressed carbon or something. Now with the velvet-smooth finish, they will end like every other product with that finish - scratched, greasy and finally, super sticky getting all the dirt that comes around them. I wish the Heavys team will introduce a firmware updating tool and let users get the best out of these headphones, because I don't have Wavelet on my PC and because of that I still have to get my Superlux HD662F. Lastly, AUX on these headphones is super hungry, I have Topping DX3 Pro and it pushes a lot of juice to headphones to make them play compared to Superlux or Beyerdynamic DT770 I own.
Yea i kinda liked the heavys more. The sound is way better to me. Abit much on the treble but its better than not emphasizing it like the Sonys. (Ps I just got mine 2 days ago)
I think when the EQ comes out, it can be improved to one's own taste. I tried changing a song using an equalizer on comp and when I used the Heavys I was very impressed.
As for the ergonomics I think its fine. I rather have the on anc off button as it is so I can rotate between on and anc. I ratger not try my luck and push the button across the spectrum coz if it fails, i cut my music off. The volume and track knobs are easy to use so I cant complain.
The ear muffs are spacious and it doesnt squish my ears. So its a big win unlike my earlier marshall heads which heats my ear up. Living in a humid country, it can be annoying.
Compared to my earlier heads which is the Marshall ANC Monitor (Over Ear), Heavys straight up wins. My marshall has been stuttering to no end and has the faulty air ANC sound, when I tested the Heavys, it didnt even stutter or produce any airy sound. (Ps. I had to change my Marshall 3x and they all ended up the same 🙄).
And the best part is the customizable shells. Can't wait for more designs to come!!!
I was kinda suprised at how good they sound.
@@LeechTM Yea me too! Worth the buy!
Odd as the heavys present with boosted bass and subdued mids and treble.
am still testing the H1H, and I want to shout out a big warning: Once listened to metal with this one here, you won't be able to put it away. You won't be able to get it away from your head. It simply stucks there. Because its like a drug. OUTSTANDING WORK, HEAVYS TEAM. Who is Beyerdynamic? Ah the ones with the cars right? Every guitar is presented like it should be, the bass roars and the double base blast bombs right into ur head. The groals let you feel like the lord of darkness has been fallen down to tell u something and u will hear details, never heard before. As a used listener of the DT-1770, I don't miss a thing I got more. Maybe its my test system: Aune S9 headphone amp, Aune X8 Magic DAC, double Sparcos Ss2590 pro op amp and now the Heavys H1H. Swedish melodic death metal is now more melodic and DEATH LIKE HELL.
what were the first two songs during the sound test? they weren’t in the description :(
The first song is Imposter by Sightless in shadow
Coole Idee, die Kopfhörer über ein binaurales Recording zu vergleichen. 👍
Danke für das Lob!
Had mine for 3 months and yet to turn them on and pair them, I got them ad a Kickstarter backer and waited a solid 2 years so whats another 3 months, I'll get around to it soon. I'll look forward to hearing how they go to some Heavy tunes including anything with a thumping bass melody. Don't like the aesthetics of the controls though, hopefully version 2.0 will address these concerns especially that silly On / ANC / off switch, what was the physical design team thinking !?!
How good are these for Studio Monitoring/Mixing? I already own the Sennheisser HD 650 and 700
That is a great question. They surely arent flat in any case. But maybe someone else with a deeper knowledge in mixing can answer this question.
I was wondering the same thing, for mixing im sure it wouldn’t be ideal, I also own HD650 which are Amazing for mixing. This heavys are more for listening experience
Hi Voitcu! 😃 maybe i can help :)
I have over 100 earbuds, 75 headphones over the ear (mixing, anc and others).
Here's the solution: the heavys headphones are very heavy headphones, for mixing it's really not the best solution. I prefer headphones like audio technica athmxbt2 or mx wired (they all have stupid names haha).
Heavys weight over 392 g. So, be aware that they are not the best for mixing, training, run or travel.
Secondly, for the sound quality: the SQ on the heavys is terrible !!! If you want to mix, the are the worst ! No trebles at all !!! And i am not joking ! The bass is super muddy, not tight bass, the vocals are recessed, they sound like they are coming from a can. Oh by the way, sorry for bad english i speak french :)
If you want to mix with those headphones, you will be decieved ! The instruments separation is one of the worst that i have heard, the detail...details? None !!! But what is positive with those headphones? They sound very loud !!!!!! If you want to be immersed by the sound, they are for you! But if you need details, instruments separation, tight bass, clear vocals, DO NOT BUY !!!!! I can't believed that mister Grell has made those headphones !!! I tried to EQ with amazon hd music. A little bit more trebles, but same muddy bass (bloat bass, nothing tight !!!!). I have them in the case and they will rest in the case until i sell them 😂
The company told on their web site in 2023: we will launched an app at the end of 2023. We are in 2024 and no app at all !!!
They wrote now: the app will launched at the first quarter of 2024... hahaha... one month left heavys, hurry up !!! Thos company can't respect their promesses and their client, so any credibility for me !!
So, if you want loud sound and big immersion, go for it. For the rest, don't buy those headphones !!!! Go for DT1990, audio technica, sennheiser open back hd600 (with an amp, you will be blown away by the sound). Want a little bit bass, go with the hd660 s2 :)
Hope this help
How is the Loudness? I tryed the Edifier Wh950 and for me it is crap. On PC iam using a Beyerdynamic MMX300
these can get pretty loud, i never listen over 50%.
The xm5s sounded more detailed and not muddy like the heavys.correct me if it's a different sound while on your head compared to how you did the sound test
The Heavys do sound pretty good, but its a sound you need to get comfortable with in the first couple of hours of wearing them. Its totally different than any other Headphones i reviewed.
XM5 are definitely the better pair.
How do these compare to haptic bass that the skullcandy crushers do? I like my bass to be rumbling when listening to metal and would like that same experience with these headphones but just a little more clarity
i havent used the skullcandies before, but the Heavys are brutal when it comes to bass reproduction, while still having enough clarity.
@@LeechTM can you do a review comparison? I would like to see how you would react to the skullcandy crushers as your first experience compared to the heavys since both headphones are prices almost the same with competitive features from both headphones
which skullcandy headphone is it exactly?
@@LeechTM skullcandy crusher ANC 2
ordered a pair, lets see what they sound like. Thanks for the video suggestion.
Mine sound great especially when I connect them with wire to fiio m15s, then they get real power, but still maybe sound even better with some EQ. But with Bluetooth they sound better then Sony wh1000x5 but lack power like most Bluetooth headphones do.
👍
I got mine just today and i´m unbelievably dissapointed. I´m seriously wondering whether my pair has broken tweeters because they´re dullas hell. But from what i´ve found online many people seem to feel this way about their sound. At the same time it´s quite possible that we all got very different sounding headphones ... my pair got shipped directly from Hong Kong and even got a broken knob on it. So there seems to be no,/ or at least neglectable qualitiy control. Still they respond terrebly to Eq. When boosting the Highs it literary sounds like trumpets blasting in your ear, nothing beyong 6-8k audible. When pulling the bass it uncovers just how little transperency there is. I can literary not hear Reverb and Hall on some Songs that i can clearly hear on my cheap jbl headphones.... Also the Sony XM5 in this video sound way more scooped and bright than they actually are. The XM5 also react to EQ way better, to the point where you can actually adjust your experience in a meaningfull way.
I can only imagine your headphones sound vastly different from my pair. Otherwise i don´t understand how you got to your conclusion
thanks for your feedback. Mine do sound quite good, but i had to get used to the different Sound comparing them to the xm5 i was used to wearing for most of my Headphone time. Broken Knob is something i would definitly get in touch with Heavys, though.
If you walk around and bend down or maybe do house cleaning will these fall off the head easily?
Not really headbanging but just regular moving about
no, if your not violently shacking your Head, these will stay on :)
What most people dont even know is that streaming music over Spotify or anything less than 16 bit audio you wont hear anything extraordinary in terms of clarity. Not to mention Bluetooth doesnt support 24bit audio even if you're hypothetically using Tidal.
The thing about that is other headphone give you that quality and clarity over apps and Bluetooth.
In that recording the mx5 sound so much better. They are crisp and clear and the Heavy’s sound like your listening through a wall or something.
Yea the XM5 has richer/superior sound quality. But they also like 400-500$.
@@BigWisper I went with the Sennheiser Momentum 4 and they blow both the Heavy’s and MX5 out of the water with their sound quality. Plus they are cheaper than the MX5 too.
Wow! The SONY headphones sound much cleaner in comparison! No contest!
Dang, I wanted to like the Heavys, but they sound too muddy. Thank you for the audio comparison.
The Heavys have a more muffled sound recording apparently
This headphone sounds awesome 👍
I got mine a month ago ... with analog cable included and I orderd an extra long analog 2.5 to 3.5 cable as well ... the ANC is realy not the best, but its enough to block my playing son in the living room and it lowers the A/c sound as well to almost silence ...fact is that my bose 35 has retired! and I started using the H1H also in meeting, die to the very clear sound on spoken voices. BT 5.1 I use only with my Phone ... on the computer I use an USB-C cable (not the one what came with the HEAVYS ;-)
one thing I miss ... switch off the charging when conected with USB-C cable... and the switching ON/OFF for BT tranparent mode (very usable in public) with the 2 buttons is ... lets says a pain in the a... ... on longer tracks it not only swith the mode, it also starts the track again or skips to the next song 😞 - hopfully with the coming app this can be done within the app and not with the hardware buttons 🙂
havent heard anything about an upcoming app, but would be great if they would, especially if there will be more Heavys focused audio Gear.
Im the opposite of you...... I compared them to my bose 35s and thought the bose sounded bettter and are alot more comfortable.
Are they good for video games as well?
Whats the thing your looking for in Headphones made for gaming?
@@LeechTM I don't know really. Nothing super competitive, just for casual gaming...
Then i dont know why you would go for especially these kinds of Headphones, and not a cheaper alternative. These are very unique in terms of Sound Profile.
Mine came yestrerday and unfortunately they sound exactly like that deep voice at 3.20 when listening to music. Much bass, distorted middles and almost no treble. They make everything sound like reduced to 8bit 8kHz and I don´t know why.
That’s weird. But you could still eq them to your liking
Mine’s the same, sounds lo-fi and with no treble. Could it be some pairs are faulty?
@@LeechTMor get a headphone that doesn't need eq out of The box
I thought the same thing. Initially I was impressed by the punch (tried Slayer and Ghost - serious kick). But I don't get the definition. Cymbals and hi-hat are lost. Spun some Rush - Tom Sawyer - and the deep synth is great, but the rest is mushy and Neal Peart's hi-at work, which is crucial to the feel of the song, is distant. Real shame, I had such high hopes.
Exactly the same with me. Got mine today, absolute mush and distortion on Lows and Mids. Nearly non existent Highs. Sounds like a SM75 in your ears treble wise.
imho they are not loud at all, should be marketed as HEAVYS Comfort. 'Loud as you like' is a lie. I have several other headphones, high end and audiophile to gaming headphones (Steel Series ARCTIS NOVA 7) all are MUCH LOUDER with and without a DAC and clearer sound. Very disappointed and cannot recommend. Stay away.
Very true... I have the HyperX Alpha S headphones and they have much clearer audio.
I had assume that because of the unique way Heavys built their headset that it would also have that degree of clarity... but no they do not.
There's a built in DAC that impedes the audio and prevents loudness. They built the Equalizer as too "Warm" so the sound of Highs and Mids are muddled
@@sostekai
Yeah and they priced these at $300(original price is about $220which is too much when something like Audeze Mobius is also $300-400 and much better audio
I agree. They are not loud enough for me either.
Disagree with you but thats fine. I think they’re amazing
@@Killus2
They sound great on Amazon Music app with their equalizer settings... The left is Bass, so keep at neutral, then the Center is lowered just a bit and the Right is for clarity I believe, so I put that at top slider.
Audio is much better but obviously with the equalizer only... Not "Out of the Box"
Te behonst i am thinking of buying a pair but for 350 euro they should improve the noice canceling to be alot better i dont want people hearing the music i am listening i listen to metal but also erotic tinted rap like brooke candy
350 is expensive. They quite often have some deals for them, so I would wait until the next one comes up
@@LeechTM the thing is there is already a 18%discount the normal Price is around 420 euro
okay, than i have to say, i dont think they are worth that price tag. I ordered them through Kickstarter for $164 - so roughly 150 Euros.
I own a lot of headphones and I'm a metal listener ( other than former musician) Heavys is the last one i bought, they are good headphone but they not worth this price, they sound melted, the low are pumped respect to the others but for examples the bass guitar playing is not so clear, material are not so great and they are also too heavy in term of weight, as i told would be a good headhphone for 200/250 $ but not for the price I paid ( I was one of the first backers)
Oh i paid this price, i think it was 225.
I agree they are great until 250 USD max.
Which one do you recommend for a similar price range?
Ok, I asked people around me if they can hear my music, and they cannot, and I go as loud as I can. As soon as you take them off, everyone can hear them from far.
Wow suenan mucho mejores que los Sony tienen más detalles en los medios y agudos y los bajos suenas súper bien.
they are pretty good in general.
I remember a time where everyone wanted japanese speakers with a built-in bathtub. Looks loke this is back in headphones now. I guess this unbalanced sound is all you can reach with a headphone with more than one system per ear.
I watched this review while wearing my HEAVYS. Pretty solid.
great that you enjoy them :)
Honestly better off buying the Sony headphones. You can adjust the equaliser presets to get the desired metal sound and have the best of everything. Plus they are comfortable and light in weight, sound quality is mint.
Can you wear them in rain?
You should not wear any kind of over Ear Headphones in rain.
@@LeechTMHow come? Can you elaborate please :)
Got my pair. They kinda shit. Controls are not intuitive and transparency mode is very very crap. Pale in comparison to airpods pro :D
One of the backers myself. I decided to back them because of the silliness of it all. I’m honestly disappointed in them.
whats your greatest disappointment?
Ngl for almost $300 yu can get better nd more reliable headphones that can play metal pretty well I got AirPods Pro’s and those play metal Almost perfect wether it’s deathcore or metal core even listens to other genres work well especially folk music for only $250 if yu want the best noise cancellation and all that jus use the AirPod pro max it’s all around steel and has a mesh headband it’s comfortable nd best noise cancellation to this day out of any headphones in my opinion
I cant find the Max for under 500 Euros anywhere.
@@LeechTM so try back market it’s super reliable or even Facebook market place down here in New York it’s only 500 idk bout Europe but yu can prolly get someone to buy it in the u.s den get it thro that way
and then i pay import taxes and customs, and its getting even more expensive. The cheapest ive seen them here is 469 Euros roughly a year ago, which translates to $510
man hört das du Deutscher oder vllt sogar Österreicher bist :D
Stuttgarter passt schon :)
Heres my honest review, If i headbang at all they fall off. I guess they are built for men... maby if i wear a hat. They aren't loud enough for my liking either.
Xm5 has better sound quality. More clear high/mids better instrument separation.
Ehm.. XM5 is known for poor mids and bad separation.
@@bjrnsjohnsen1278 XM5 isn’t the best but it far surpasses the H1H in every category. I have budget headphones that sound better
@@BigWisper You don’t get the whole point of these.. non-fatigueing, soundstage, the amount of drivers, comfort, are there for a reason. Your budget phones will not have this amount of technology in them.
@@bjrnsjohnsen1278 I look at headphones for sound quality alone. If I can wear it for 3+ hours then it’s good enough for me.
man the sony sounds way better all around
Sonys sound very clean and neutral, the Heavys tend to push in one direction.
If you are a metalhead looking for pair of headphones - keep looking! H1H is not for you. They are not tuned for metal, unless [insert any boy band name here] is what you consider to be metal.
Feel free to add a clarification to your opinion, so that people can actually decide why or why not they should go for this Headphones.
@@LeechTM Sure, sound over AUX connection is awfully poor, it sounds muddy and think. BT and digital is a bit better, but is still base heavy, guitars and vocals are muted. The only genre of metal I can think of, that would sound okish (without some extensive EQ work) if funeral doom.
what would you recommend instead?
@@PRSway2727 I'm partial to Audio-Technica. I've been using ATH-M50 for years. They might not be metal specific or greatest headphones ever, but at least they are "neutraly" tuned and not bass heavy as most, and reasonably priced.
@@CorvusCorax_0x0 What if I prefer bass heavy metal.
Sounds terrible, the heavys and I'm using the Grell tws. Sry, but I'm glad not to bought them.
😂, the sound test just proved how much better the xm5's were.
depends. I like both sounds for different genres.
The Heavys sound terrible! Washed out too heavy on the mids and the highs are muted. The Sony’s give you more pure sound. That’s all it took for me. They are charging way too much for what you seem to get
Lol so the headphones for metal sounded better for edm and the Sony's sounded better for metal. Edm is meant to be bass heavy metal just sounds muddy and gross On these
Am I the only one who thought the Heavys sounded kinda... awful? Mountains of mud, the bass was so pronounced it sounded like a Skullcandy. Metal is about the mids, and too much bass only buries them.
Im not here to defend anything, but when wearing them, they sound really good, much better than the Sonys.
Yes same here. I actually own the pair and I'm sure many others do too. This is a very independent creation so we know what's going on.
The Audio from Heavys "H1H" are not very good. They lowered the Highs and Mids to protect hearing and only lowers the quality of the Sound.
Vocals from Operas, Pop Singers and yes even Vocals from Metal genre are all held back because the headphones holdback the HIIIGHS.
Then there's the Bass or the Warmth of the Audio, they set that too high creating an audio that Muddles Highs and Mids and only further Muddles guitar, bass, drum work.
Oh also, we're able to use the headphones through Auxiliary cable, but that audio is also ruined because the DAC needs to be turned on in order for the headphones to process audio.
You can also hear audio without turning On but the audio quality is not the same 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@tsohgallik I don't think leech was being dishonest. He probably enjoys metal that works well with heavy bass, e.g. nu-metal, djent, industrial, etc. For someone like me who prefers MDM, OSDM and speed/thrash metal, the Heavys sound signature does not suit my needs. I prefer a headphone tuned to the 2013 Harman Curve; metal DOES need bass but too much ruins it (so does too much treble). I'd also suggest the Harman Curve for most classical music.

Yeah, yeah true... these headphones are only good for NuMetal, MetalCore, Death, I tried Cattle Decapitation and they sound slightly better 😅
I got mine today and yes, they sound exactly like you described: Muddy, where bass drowning everything.
I have nothing in the same price range to compare, so I can’t say whether or not they’re good for their price - maybe they’re incredible, IDK.
All I have are Audeze Maxwell and Steelseries Arctis Pro, and they both sound way better than Heavys, which I guess is expected given the price difference. I never expected Heavys to come close to Maxwell anyway but I kinda hoped they wouldn’t be this much worse than Arctis Pro, at least for metal music, as the Arctis series is mainly for gaming while Heavys is designed for listening to metal music.
On the good part: Very comfortable, looks solid AF, and has great controls. I hope they release a firmware update or something to balance things out. I don’t want to believe this is bad for hardware reasons.
Axell Grell has nothing to do with the physical design and was paid for marketing purposes. These are are utter garbage as well.
Actualy the heavy sound horrible
I'd rather stick with DT 177X GO they sound great
Good for you, i guess 👍
Skullcandy. Crusher will definitely kill the Heavys
honestly for me they didn't sound all too good, i like my headphone to have some bass and these have almost none
I don't understand the comments where they have a lot of bass. Mine don't have any bass at all. Are we doing something wrong? I need bass
@@williamwestfall2874 mine are the same, im returning them
