I have Ollo S4X and they're good but I've always been bothered by the wide big emphasis on low mids which makes them sounds muffled and muddy masking the higher mids and also the stereo separation. Seeing the S5X frequency response graph it looks just slightly more neutral which is what the S4X have been missing in my opinion. The improvements in the acoustics and earcup design I think will make these superior to the S4X. I'll be looking forward for reviews comparing these two.
The only pair I know of in the U.S. at the moment is in the hands of Brandon S. Hire of Hire Media. He's a licensed reseller, and a good guy. I imagine he'll be doing a shootout before anyone else, mate.
Should be getting my S5X in the US first week of February! Can't wait to use them for mixing. Would the Babyface Pro be enough to push these or do I still need an additional DAC?
Hi - Do you know ? Can i mix stereo projects alone on this kind of headphone alongside immersive audio ? Or are these strictly for mixing other varients of binaural/immersive audio only ? Cheers. sp
Too cool. Rok Gulič really knows his stuff. Detailed answers to some difficult questions!
Yeah, for sure. Just the best phones out there, and Rok's expertise is why.
Outstanding interview!
Thanks, mate! He's really self-guiding. Very easy to interview, lol!
Amazing interview. Thank you for sharing!
Glad you liked it! Rok is really cool.
I am a happy customer of S4X which is my first pro level mixing headphone.
Awesome. I do like them.

Yes, I do know. They work for everything.
really nice. is there a way we can watch the whole interview? cheers
I didn't release the whole recording. A lot of it is just telling stories and getting dialed in.
Didn't get what target curve is the OllO target curve based on?
Their proprietary curve, I'd imagine. I don't think they're emulating other gear.
@@stevesrecordingtips7247 Roc says in the video that OllO's curve resembles some other curve.
@@HalRockwell Resembles, perhaps. Modeled after? I dunno. He doesn't often mention other brands for comparisons. Very rare, in fact.
@@HalRockwell He said it's similar to the Dolby curve.
@@kanewilliams1026 I knew that I wasn't imagining! Thanks!
