I might eventually look at different headphones at sometime in the future, but when I receive the Headamp Aristaeus, I probably won't be getting anymore Amps or Sources. What I have can be seen in my profile.

 The weight of this headband is 0.6.98lb alone, and with the ear cups the overall weight is 1.10.22lb, so my 009's are now heavier headphones. But with the band being wider than normal, that weight is supported better which...

To try and improve the look of this new headband, I was going to incorporate some carbon fibre, however because I found it hard to get hold of in the shape I wanted, I decided not to bother and just glued black leather on the top and...

As I've said, it wasn't on head-fi, and where it was, at first I wasn't aware all users could write whatever they wanted about anyone. Yes I did repeatedly write my thoughts about the BHSE, but it was only on the BHSE thread. All that...

This wasn't on head-fi, where it was is supposed to be a norm, but I was unaware of that. I couldn't care less what others write about my thoughts on gear, but someone questioned whether I was from the county I was born and bred, that...

The comment by Mr Giskard is the very reason why it's best when possible, to audition audio gear before buying. I wasn't able to do that with the GS-Xmk2 but I'm very happy with how it makes my HD-600's sound. IMO the SQ alone is...
