I used to only have DT770 just like OP, before deciding to buy K 701. I must say I'm very satisfied with them. Just like OP I felt like the DT770's were fatiguing with boosted treble and bass. K 701 gives me a really airy and open presentation which I really enjoy. I still prefer DT770 for games...

Your physics regarding fluorescent colors are wrong. All colors (except black) reflect ultraviolet light. Fluorescent colors work by absorbing photons in the ultraviolet range and emitting photons in the visible range.   I wouldn't know how high frequency wave above our hearing range affect...

Gaining switch? There's no such thing, no? I guess you're talking about the digital input switch in front, which for some reason is only named 1, 2 and 3.   I don't quite see why you would buy the A version in the first place, this being your first amp and all...

Knowing that you are using a "good" cable could set you in a different mood, hence change the way you "feel" emotionally. Could you pinpoint this certain "feel" in a DBT not knowing what cable you hear in use? Somehow I doubt that, and I think this kind of discussion reminds of some religious...

ROBSCIX: This is the sound science part of the forum, and while the first post was a bit obnoxious, we generally try to base our claims on facts. With that in mind I don't quite see how your post contributes with anything we haven't heard a few times earlier...   I've read a lot about...

I would like to bump my question, hopefully getting this thread back on right track   Quote:

Quote: I thought your blind test was interesting when I first saw it, but now you're just acting silly. I, along with many others, appreciate the sound from a better source than onboard sound card or ipod, so please stop your crusade against head-fi/hifi. Also, taking quotes out of...

Has anyone got any experience with the sparrow along with AKG K701? I'm thinking about buying K701, but I'm unsure whether my sparrow will be sufficient for these cans? I've read lots about how difficult they are to amp.

Quote:   I ordered my sparrow basic usb version one week ago and got a tracking number today. Not sure if they're out of stock now though? (they informed about the problem before I ordered mine)

From the reply they sent me I got the impression they had no more usb versions already built in stock. I'm not really in a rush to get mine, but I'm hoping they'll find a solution soon enough. And I'd like to know what kind of replacement they'll come up with.   And I'm really hoping that if...

I placed an order on the basic usb sparrow a few days ago, only to read minutes later on their websites that they have no more usb chips... Bummer! I sent them an e-mail to find out if they knew when they would get the missing parts. Got this reply:   Quote: From what I can read out of...
