The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
Well. I do not judge anyone in this audiophile hobby. Before I entered this hobby I used to think that spending thousand dollars on audio systems are just wasting money. Now I have spent a lot like over $10k Australia dollars already and intend to spend more in the future. I am thinking about...- LoveKnight

Icon Audio HP205D
There are a few dealers in Australia that sell Icon audio amps. I checked the main website and find out that the amp is currently out of order. I am saving money to buy a 300B amp too. May I ask Mr ardbeg1975 about how is the pairing of Sennheiser HD800s with the Icon hp205d? Thank you.- LoveKnight

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
I just checked the webiste maybe I am wrong but I saw on the webiste that the price for a Sennheiser HD800 modded by JAR to become a JAV800v3 is over $2k without headphone included (that means someone has to ship his or her HD800 to him). Am I correct? Thank you.- LoveKnight

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
In Munich 2024 there was someone that visited the Lake People area and saw a demo Vio 590 v2. Is there anyone has some information about this? Maybe there will be V550 v2 too in the near future?- LoveKnight

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
Hello everyone. I use an original Sennheiser HD800 with Violectric V550. I found out that most of HD800 sibilances and treble peak come from sources and musics. I have a Melco N100 music server with a USB reclocker and a Matrix S-pdif 3 DDC with no fancy cables. The Dac I currently use is Weiss...- LoveKnight

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
Hello everyone. I just bought an old Sennheiser HD800 a week ago. After replacing the original earpads with ZMF lambskin earpads and the headphone was ready to rock. My first impression is this headphone does have Sennheiser house sound but a little bit thin, very precise, fast, lean and big...- LoveKnight

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
Wow. I just had a second hand but very good condition Sennheiser HD800 here and the pair with Vioelectric V550 is fabulous. I will report more after hearing more but I think V550 pairs very well with Sennheiser cans. In addition to Sennheiser HD800. What an upgrade from Sennheiser HD650 to HD800...- LoveKnight

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
Well I dare to say when a HD600 or 650 well driven it outplayed the Denon D9200 on resolution and transparent . I compared them on my gigs Melco N100 -> a USB reclocker -> a DDC -> Weiss 205 -> V550. I still think can improve the HD650 more with better power supply unit and cables. My Hypsos for...- LoveKnight

Violectric HPA V550 - Blue's Brother and the successor to the V281
I saw your post on Denon D9200 topic. May I ask what headphones do you pair with V550? I tried Denon D9200 with V550 but unfortunately I feel bright and fatigue and the scale was just little compare to HD650 scales up alot with this amp. In the end I just use HD650 with V550 exclusively.- LoveKnight

New from Weiss - the DAC 204 IN STOCK A TTVJAudio.com
I just ordered a Weiss Dac 205 for cheaper price than 204. Beside I have already had a USB reclocker and Matrix X-Spidf 3 as a DDC and do not hear DSD so I do not want to spend more money on Weis Dac 204. After more than half of a year I jump on Weiss dac ship finally. Will write impressions...- LoveKnight
