Strange ear-flutter
« on: 17 Nov 2004, 03:41 pm »
I'm burning in a pair of Audio-Technica W1000's that I bought to use with a EE Minimax CD player (after reading the 6 Moons glow about it).  I think this will be a really great combo when run-in is finished.  I'm having a strange ear reaction to these cans though, and I wonder if anyone else has had same.

Listening at any volume, when pressing stop or skipping tracks (stopping the drivers) I find that my eardrums shudder to a stop along with the 'phones.  It can be a very disorienting and unpleasant sensation.  Anyone else have this experience with closed cans or otherwise?

I've taken to lifting the pads from my head while stopping or skipping.  Its a strange little ritual that is a bit irritating.
