Agreed there, but the bolder claims need to be factored in too, whilst much of the results will no doubt be sound, As bold as the claim was, HD600 surely cannot physically closely match a HD800s, otherwise we may as well throw physics out of the window
I think for that kind of claim here, because this is still new, it gets people talking, like everyone on reddit is, and it's filtered to headfi and here.
Their reactions to the HD 600 and that quote are hidden in the middle of a video where they didn't lead with it in anyway and never put it in the title, or thumbnail. As for the claim on the 600 they do explain it in the video. And the science has been explained to some level of detail. So I think the idea that FR is more important than we understand it to be currently, is probably believable. I suppose having recently heard the results of blind testing DAC/AMPs and suddenly had my beliefs challenged somewhat I'm not inclined to just dismiss it fully. I would say I think it would be more interesting to find a way to make these tools more accessible to all, but again I appreciate that may be impossible.
