Okay, so I'm now at the decision point.  I'm leaning more towards getting the 32 ohm version of the DT990 -- would I be sacrificing anything by doing so (compared to higher impedance versions)?  With the 32 ohm version, would...

It'll have to be for home use.  I can just use my panasonics on-the-go.   Tomorrow I might end up shopping around for tubes -- can I just use any tube for an amp?  What specs should I be looking for?

Yeah, actually one of my friends had the VMODA LPs -- the ones with the chrome finish.  I got a chance to compare them side-by-side to my Panasonic RP-HTF600s and they sound a bit more closed, possibly more bassy.   As...

So how do the 32, 250, and 600 ohm variants compare?  What does the higher impedance do for the quality/accuracy of the speakers?   For now I'm going to wait until I visit an electronics warehouse to see what kind of...

This might be a silly idea, but I've got a Fender guitar amp (the Fender Super Champ) and it uses a couple tubes in its circuitry -- would I be able to just use that with 600 ohm headphones?

I'm leaning more towards building my own amp....  I've definitely got the skills and materials required (as long as that place still has some good tubes cheap).  If I get anywhere with it I'll post something in the DIY...

I can literally get a ton of tubes (good ones by the looks of it) for $5 each.  So, DIY amps are definitely a legitimate option here.

Ok, so is there a low-cost amp that I could use with the 600 ohms?  I'm actually planning on getting more high impedance cans later on so it might be a good investment to consider (if it's as essential as you say).   What...

Okay, so I've been looking for some new headphones for a while now, and instead of waiting another 10 weeks and blowing ALL my money on the LCD-2 I think I'm going for the DT990-600 ohms, since they have (or from what I've heard) great...

Hello,   I'm getting to the point where I'll have enough money to do something significant with.  However, I'd love it if there were some reviews (note -- some, not just one) comparing the audeze lcd-2 with electrostat...
