That rock out mentality really died down over the past ten years or so and I’ve never understood neutral tone, reference or clinical appeal. To some of the audio community, musicality means nothing and true to track qualities are all that is important. I am here for one reason: to enjoy my tunes. I am not in this audio hobby to sit in my nice Eames chair and say “ Yep, this is so true to the track!” as my ears bleed, wince at every high hat strike and feel dizzy over the constant poor rendering of treble being reiterated through my “ accurate” headphones. Sadly, the audio community over the past few years has been stuck in a reference tone and clinical mine field of product releases and I really hate it on a subjective level. Of course, I’d been skeptical when I read it. Stephen sent me a random email about the NightHawk a while back, knowing full well beforehand that I would enjoy the hell out of this headphone and that he was eager to read my impressions. Thanks so much AudioQuest, you guys rock! ![]() Having everything I need for a full and detailed review right at the starting line makes things slick and smooth from beginning to end. He supplied me with some cables for the NightHawk and I couldn’t be happier or more thankful for them. A Rant about Audiophiliaīefore starting, I’ve got to thank Stephen at AudioQuest for being such an awesome guy. ![]() I’ve got to admit, I really like their view on how headphones should sound and it is incredibly refreshing to have a product in house that appeals to the musicality chasers like me. AudioQuest ran into the Audiophile Pit while wearing a cowboy hat, guns blazing and firing at anything that moved like the mad men they are.
