Now, it is not that I had heard bad things about them, just that the descriptions and graphs pointed me to a set of headphones that doesn’t really align with my personal preferences. I will get into more details as we go through the usual review steps. As with other models, Sivga opts for a build using wooden cups and (faux) leather covered headband and pads. Bass: Djuro – Drop that bass (01:15-01:30), similar extension but more rumble on the SV021. Punch quantity is also higher on it but tighter, faster and a bit more textured. Tonality and timbre are a lot better on the Phoenix. I think the SV021 hits the sweet spot between impact and constraint when it comes to mid-bass. It’s not an overpowering or dominating bass but it’s got enough presence to provide rhythm and warmth. It’s a reasonably fast bass that doesn’t get bogged down or congested during busy music. Metallica – fight fire with fire (01:11-01:52), a lot more natural tonality/timbre and isn’t veiled on the Phoenix.
Sivga Welcome to Sivga
Got this far in our Sivga Robin review and still not sure? We're mostly impressed. The sound quality of the Sivga Robin is above what you would expect for the price. I really can’t find a way to explain to myself, nevermind to all of you, why I like these headphones. Sometimes we just like what we like and we should stop spending time to justify it. When it came to Dynamics, the Macrodynamics were really good. Microdynamics were sufficient enough to give me an inkling of spatiality. The difference between quiet and loud passages was quite pronounced, especially for a headphone at this level.The bass is far more elevated than I would like, the recession in the lower mids is something that I would not choose, and the peak around the 5k mark is something that I would avoid.
Sivga Robin SV021 Review | Trusted Reviews
use not following the ‘User Guide’ or any additional safety, use, or warnings included in the product materials. Instrument separation and layering are decent too. Thanks to the wide soundstage, instruments do not sound compressed or "in your head". Instruments are well spread out with the vocalist presented in the middle. As this headphone has something of a V-Shaped sound signature, the mids were more recessed than I usually like. As I said earlier, there is also a tad bit of edginess in the upper mids, but this flaw only became overly distracting when there was hardness coming from a budget DAC/Amp in the chain.Hiroyuki Sawano – Scapegoat (00:57-01:17), Instrument and vocal tonality/timbre are leagues ahead of the SV021.
Sivga Oriole – Sweet Herald of Spring - Headphonesty Review: Sivga Oriole – Sweet Herald of Spring - Headphonesty
Sivga describes its treble as “clear and gorgeous”. Yes, it is clear, but it may or may not be “gorgeous” depending on one’s preference. To my ears, the upper mids or the treble can exhibit a certain amount of sibilance, depending on the music and/or listener’s tolerance. The “S” and “TS” sounds can be harsh depending on the music. Just keep in mind they are colored, these have a boosted but tasteful bass. They are not the most resolving headphones and have a mid-fi sound quality but they are fun. The sound signature of the ATH-M50X is similar to the Robin. However, the overall performance of the ATH-M50X is duller and colder, while the Robin are more energetic and engaging. The Robin bring the music to me in a more lively form. Hiroyuki Sawano – Lose (string version) (01:22-01:59), Violins/cellos on the 1AM2 is better in every way. I simply could not write a review with the horizontal rotation problem present. I knew that this headphone is capable of much, much more (because once I physically pressed the ear-cups against my ears, the performance was significantly better).Hiroyuki Sawano – Pretenders (01:18-01:47), mid-bass quantity is a lot higher on the D1100 and is more textured. Faster and tighter on the SV021 though. But more tonally accurate as well as better timbre on the D1100.
Great Deal
