Ah okay. Yeah I do like the crispness of the PTR1 but yes I will agree it's pretty lifeless and shallow. No bass at all. Lol Now with the PTR2 it's reversed, good fullness good bass and what not but the mike is terrible. It's muffeled and sounds like when you cup youer hand over your mouth or something. But never mind you could always use a Stereo mike with it. Or should I say can? As the PTR2 is still being sold.
