In a recent video I watched featuring DMS, he said (to simplify) that there are to types of experiences that people go after when choosing headphones. One of them being Maximum accuracy and the other a more lively and fun presentation. I don’t think that these are exact solar opposites.
But I do get what he’s trying to say, the problem I’m having is that a good big chunk of headphones tend to go the maximum accuracy route.
Am I wrong? For most headphones that I listened to my music (metal, hip hop, electronic) didn’t really stood out as much and sounds in a way lifeless. The only headphones that could actually bring some the excitement were the focal clear.
And for this reason I have kind of started to go towards speakers, but still speakers lack intimacy that headphones could bring. Is there a way to achieve an compromise here?

If you want maximum accuracy with a lively, fun presentation you should look at IEMs. A moderately priced set like the FH7 or Variations will give you high end detail retrieval, resolution and imaging that is deeply immersive and enjoyable. They’ll make you want to dance, cry and even fight depending on the song.
