Balanced W5000 with Black Dragon

Bones13 — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 20:30:36 GMT

Just received my W5000 back from Moon Audio newly balanced with Black Dragon and Furutech connectors. Prompt service and return of the cans. Beautiful craftmanship on the recable job, very precise work.

The sound - transformative. W5000 are know for detail and the detail is still there, but the energy that was missing is all there now. Even the bass that requires carefull fit, or bending the head band, is there in a balanced format.

I had noticed enough improvement with the Apache not to sell them in my recent wave of selling my little used gear to get my upgrades subsidized. Boy am I glad I did not sell my AT W5000s.

Balanced W5000 and Balanced HD800s. Choices, Choices.

Thanks again Drew, your Black Dragon cable is a definate fit for this headphone, and the looks and craftsmanship are first class.
