Customer Reviews
This is Summit-Fi closed back that sounds open and wide!
DCA E3 has class leading vocals, good bass slam when called for and a well done treble. Easy to drive bcos of low impedance but lower sensitivity means this will need some power & gain to shine.
Small quirks- Can get a bit shouty on certain tracks and overall texture of sound can come off as a bit dry.
Great overall packaging and accessories. Superbly built and comfy for long listening sessions.
This makes us really happy and we really appreciate the genuine feedback! We hope you had a comfortable shopping experience and thank you for the great review and ratings!
Actually, I have been owning a Meze Liric-1 (not the Liric-2) for a few years now. It has so many great qualities, but at times, I have always felt that something is missing. And then came DCA-E3. Several reviewers crowned it the closed-back king. So went for it impulsively and it is an amazing headphone for sure. There is something special about it, which connects you with music. It is holographic, precise, sweet mids and highs. Bass is quite superior, quality over quantity. Stellar wearing comfort. I think it is going to be my endgame closed back, hopefully...
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had a positive experience shopping with us. ️ Your support means the world to us! We can't wait to serve you again soon. ✨
The amount of Gratification or pleasure you get when you listen to these pair of Cans sincerely I don’t have words-Nirvana.
Take Thieaudio Monarch Mklll and marinate with honey and you get these
No frequency is escalated or subdued but presented in such clean,separated and spacious way as far as a closed back can get.
The will be the Best Closed Back-End Game for sure.
Thank God and Thank HPZ
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that you had a great experience shopping with us! ️ We appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again!
These are excellent headphones technically. They are also smooth to listen to, with no harshness. However on first review they came across as shouty & dry due to poor interconnect cable. ₹700 green ones I got from bajaao . Com. After switching to Schiit PYST snake oil (model name) cables I am getting a warminsh, detailed and smooth sound. The bass is still a little under-hitting but my Ragnarok 2 is under repair. Currently using Burson Soloist 3XP. They lack the sparkle you associate with planars, nor do they have the satisfying bass of a Stellia.
Original Review -
These headphones are very very resolving. The bass and dynamics are excellent. However they have a dry timbre and are firmly meant to study the music rather than enjoy it. The biggest problem though is that they can get very shouty easily. Because of that they are not suitable for loud listening. The vocals especially come across as overly loud. There is no harshness or distortion however. I could say they are an excellent headphone but with a sub optimal tuning. EQing these does not seem to help.
Dear valued customer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on the Dan Clark Audio - E3 headphones. We're glad to hear that you appreciate their bass and dynamics.
We understand your feedback about the dry timbre and shouty vocals, but we will definitely take your feedback into consideration for future improvements.
Thank you for choosing Dan Clark Audio. We hope you continue to enjoy your purchase.
