beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.
Some shops that sell instruments and studio equipment have a workshop that does repairs, make custom cables etc. A local shop may do it for you. A local shop made me a set of XLR crossed cables for connecting equipment using the two different XLR pin standards, typically to connect my STAX...- CDWMcInSpots

OPPO PM-2 Is Available - Post Your Impressions Here
OPPO headphones and headphone amplifiers are in shops already. I have seen and listened to OPPO HA-1 and PM-1 in mid June 2014 at Oslo Hi-Fi Center which has a rather good selection of headphones and headphone amplifiers. Translation of the advertisement text: The city's best...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
I have had both good and not so good results with Sennheiser HD 800 and headphone amplifiers with output impedance <= 2 ohms, mostly solid state, but also a couple of/few tube amplifiers. See my self quote at the end. This may very well be related to what I observe as "engaging with...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
I assume that's a comment to my post. You miss the mark. I wasn't tied in because I haven't followed the Sennheiser HD 800 impression thread. On the other hand I believe in cross linking and quoting so others don't have to search for the information you talk about. It's about...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
I didn't intend to accuse you or anybody else of just reading one post. It was more of general remark, because we all, including purrin, may not give a comprehensive picture in every single post, and hence can be (partially) misunderstood. Alas I didn't mean to accuse you of anything. ...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
Quote: I had a quick look and assume you're talking about the "The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread". This subtopic seems to start with purrin posting a list of "amps [...] which gel well with HD800" but "avoided mention any amps which gooified the HD800 because I feel HD800 gooification...- CDWMcInSpots

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
I did a search without finding (much about) these in the following posts: I like my Sennheiser HD 800 with my: Lynx Hilo (DAC + amplifier) EAR Yoshino HP4 AudioQuest DragonFly (DAC + amplifier) The combinations are engaging with toe-tapping factor and at least for Hilo and HP4...- CDWMcInSpots

beyerdynamic T5p: Photos and first impressions.
I don't know the Apogee Symphony I/O. I actually did a search when you posted the pictures to see what it was. On the other side according to several sources it has two independently controlled headphone outputs which is (very) rare. They are normally controlled together when there's two...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
Quote: I didn't plan to write anything more after the above because the rest will be specific to Norway and/or my case, and hence not of much use to the rest of the world. There's a parallell to the package addressed to mp101 in "Kent, England, UK" which arrived at "her majesty's...- CDWMcInSpots

An amplifier comparison using HiFiMAN HE-6: HeadAmp GS-X mk2 Bakoon Products HPA-21 Woo Audio WA5 EAR Yoshino HP4 I assume Justin_Time is one of a select few who own and hence have the possibility to compare all these amplifiers. Since there's seldom much writing about EAR Yoshino HP4...- CDWMcInSpots

The HeadAmp GS-X and GS-X MK2 Thread
I suppose 1 year +/- 6 months is a good estimate that would cover most scenarios already experienced and forecasted for the GS-X mk2. (The BHSE is an other cup of tea I believe.) It's possible that some early customers for the first batch waited longer, but I don't know the details of that...- CDWMcInSpots
