I returned to the store to listen to Andromeda's again and A/B them with my Fiio FA7s. Whilst there, I also listened to the new CA Polaris's, CA Dorado's, Noble Sage's, AAW Nightingale's and also some Focal Elegia closed back headphones.
Really was a testament to these Fiio's. I've had to EQ them to stop the bass bleeding into the mids but after a very quick EQ, they really hold their own. Don't get me wrong, the Andro's are really lovely to listen to. Far better than anything else I listed above, but are they worth 4 times the amount of the Fiio's? Oh hell no. I put my Fiio's back in, left the store and was not even remotely remorseful of not buying the Andro's, which surprised me greatly. Great success.
