The 121 is brighter on the back no?
My fig. 8 Fostex ribbons sound different front to back as well.
I realize the Dual Voicing is marketed by C&T as an inherent benefit, but I was under the impression all fig. 8 ribbons sound different when comparing the front and back lobes. |
Most ribbons provide a different sound front to back, but not all are very noticeable. The Beyer M130 I find to sound very similar front to back, as well as the Crowley and Tripp Proscenium. There are a few exceptions out there. C&T goes out of their way to change the rear response on the Naked Eye and make it more pronounced.
