Thunderous Bass

The Cascades are wonderfully built, great to look at and are very comfortable to wear for long periods of listening. The stainless steel headband, aluminium ear cups, the plush leather ear pads, litz copper cable, leather case - everything screams premium.

I used the Cascade with my AK Kann DAP and they just sounded phenomenal. The bass is the star of the show. The bass is of excellent quality and they hit you really hard and deep. This is almost basshead territory. The added presence in the sub bass makes the music much more enjoyable. What is surprising is how clean they can sound and the amount of details they can present considering the amount of bass on offer. They also sound very spacious. They come with 4 tuning filters. As the number on the filter increases, the warmer and smoother the sound gets. I found the 1st one to suit my sound preferences.

They don’t need any amplification. They sounded great from my mobile phone as well but they just sounded a lot better with my AK DAP. The bass just makes me pick these over my MW 60 which was my favourite pair of headphones before the Cascade. But the sound signature might not be to everyone’s liking.

Excellent! Just Excellent!

If you want high quality & quantity of bass then it is the best choice. I never heard like this! Actually you can say this v shape headphone. If you love rock, pop & bollywood music then this is the best choice and one more thing this is closed back headphone so you can enjoy outdoor too. Thanks a lot to Mr. Salim for arrangement and HPZ team.

SOUND

FREQUENCY GRAPH

CHEAT SHEET

Regions of the frequency spectrum

SUB BASS
(20Hz - 80 Hz)

The first section of the frequency spectrum is the sub-bass. Everything below 80Hz is sub-bass, so generally, you need a subwoofer or a good pair of headphones (open-back headphones, for example) to hear this region. This region comprises instruments like the Kick Drum and the Bass Guitar. You should be able to hear Sub-Bass if you’re listening on monitors or headphones. But if you’re listening on a laptop or a phone, there’s no way you will hear that.

MID BASS
(80 Hz - 300 kHz)

After the Sub-Bass region, we get into the region known as the Bass or Mid-Bass. This region consists of everything between 80 and 300 hertz. In this area, we’ve got instruments like bass guitar and the low end of a snare. Lots of the low-end vocals as well, because male vocals are going to have the fundamental below 200Hz in most cases.

LOWER MIDRANGE
(300 Hz - 1000 kHz)

Next, if you go from 300 Hz up to 1000 kHz, this is known as the Lower Midrange, and this is a crucial region for music because this is where you get a lot of buildup with guitars, vocals, and even the top-end of the bass guitar especially. Lower Midrange is an area guilty of adding mud to a mix and clarity in this region lifts a track exponentially.

UPPER MIDRANGE
(1 kHz - 6 kHz)

Human hearing focuses inherently on this frequency range. So it’s crucial to get this range right. This region consists of the main focus of the track (e.g. vocals) and synths. Be aware that this is also where you can start to get into harshness and aggressive tones.

TREBLE
(6 kHz - 10 kHz)

After the Upper Midrange, we’ve got the Treble region between 6kHz and 8 kHz, and this is where things start to get harsh. This region is where we have brittleness from instruments like the Hi-Hats and Cymbals. This is also a crucial range for clarity and aggression, especially for female vocals.

AIR
(10 kHz - 20 kHz)

At the end of the frequency spectrum, we get to the Air region or the Top End. This region consists of everything above 10 kHz. This is where we have air and this is where we get a sense of shine and sparkle in our music.
