    Marshall Headphones, an interesting new option.

    I don't know any more than is on this link, but given the reputation of Marshall I consider this something to take a good look at.

    e-mail notifications

    When the new site appeared I didn't get any notofications. That was fixed a week or so ago, but now they stopped again.   Beside that I think they are also quite illegible, especially the quotes are terrible.

    Lake People V181: a new balanced amp <$1000

    In the thread about the V200 amp from Lake People there was a mention of the new V181, a balanced solid state headphone amplifier. I am very interested and take a look. To my surprise they present it with a 5 pin XLR headphone output So, I decide to e-mail them about it. I got a prompt...

    Goldpoint Headphone Pro

    I was made aware of the fact that Goldpoint made a heaphone amp through this thread. I decided to buy one because I was still looking for a good solid state amplifier to complement my tube and hybrid amps to service the herd of phones that is littering the wall beside my desk. I ordered one...

    Archos 5 question

    I noticed that the Archos 5 has Linux as operating system. I wonder if it would recognise a DAC if it was plugged into it's USB port... Anybody own an Archos and tried it?

    Trafomatic Experience Head One

    It has been a long time since this amp was in the picture and I don't seem to be able to find the old thread any more so I made a new one. I promissed some people a more comprehensive review of the Trafomatic Experience Head One headphone amp a couple of months ago. It took a lot of effort...

    Kenwood KH-K1000

    A few months ago I came across a mention of this new Kenwood flagship on a Japanese site. It was acompanied by some frequency graphs that were very promising (at least I could read that...). Since then there has been some mention on this site, but not much. It stuck in my mind though, for some...

    KEN36 best wishes

    I (and some other members here) were worried about Ken. So I mailed him and he responded the following: Quote: Hi Kees, Thanks for your concern. Surgery scheduled for this Thursday. Two valves and a single bypass. It looks like life caught up with me big time. Please do me a favor and...

    Sleek SA6

    A couple of months ago (six months, a year?) I found on the web an interesting site of someone planning to make a pair of IEMs that could be tuned using different sizes of tubes in the housing. I followed it a while, but lost interest after I bought my PK1s (and nothing happened on the site)...

    Rpx-100 + K1000

    Just want to share something I recently found out. I have always been intrigued by the AKG K1000, but having to match them with a separate amp always kept me away from them. Last Sunday Blackmore was over and brought his K1000 with him (among other stuff) for me to try out. I had asked him...

    Headphoneus Chaoticus

    Hi, I just thought this is the right sort of occasion to put some of my thoughts in writing about my experiences with High-end, headphones and any other topics that happen to pop up. It may give some context to the loose remarks and posts I have made in the period I spent here. It has no...

    Simple DT990 mod.

    A couple of weeks ago I traded my PROline 750s for a pair of DT990s. I had been very curious about them for quite a while, but never got to listening to a pair. Not being a fan of long winded stories I will keep it short: I found they sound(-ed!) terrible. By far the worst headphones I ever...

    number

    If you want to know the number of my post count when i write this you can always compute it using random numbers. Pick any number consisting of three different digits. Create a second number by reversing the digits in the first number. Subtract the smaller number from the larger one. Thus...

    My impressions: PROline 750

    I have been curious for Ultrasones for a very long time, but I never managed to lay my hands on them for a decent price until recently. A couple of weeks ago I finally got to listen to them. Since there is not a lot written about them here, I though it would be nice to share my experience...

    The next 325i mod.

    Hi all. I just want to share another very easy mod I did on my SR325i. The mod is easy, the consequences are not. First the mod itself though. Materials used: Standard Grado bowl 2 plastic pins (pins used to cover screws, cut around the edges to prevent them from sticking out). 2...

    VERY easy 325i mod. (and maybe also for other Grados)

    Hi all. This is a very simple mod for your 325i. Reversible within 1 second flat. Total cost: about $2. I got the idea from a mod on my turntable. It has a heavy metal platter. The mod is that you put a heavy, tight elastic band around the rim to dampen vibrations in the metal. Well, I...

    Pinkie mod: warning

    I am a long time fan of my HD650/X-can v3 combo. I (still) think it does exceptionally well. But you know ..... I suddenly needed an Equinox cable. That was good. Expensive, but good... A bit better control in the bass department. A bit more forward in the midrange. A somewhat livelier...
