Abyss AB-1266 Phi TC

There is definitely that Abyss “house sound”, for sure. Obviously, it isn’t going to suit everyone. For lack of a better description, it has a slightly “scooped” tonal character in that both the bass and the treble are forward. It’s an exciting and energetic sound with superb technical performance across the board.

I’m very familiar with the Audeze house sound since I’ve owned the LCD-3 and still own the LCD-4. It’s not for everyone either. It’s the same with the SR1a that I have, which is at the opposite end of the spectrum from Audeze’s LCD’s. But I love them all. That’s what makes this hobby so fun.

With these three, I feel like I can cover pretty much every genre, sound, feel and mood. But, of course, now I see that I’m going to need three very different amps to mix and match! Haha.
