Yes I heard them for the most part at the meet a few years back. I also did hear the HD 800 at my grandfathers who had a Burson 160 connected to a Music Streamer II+ but most of my use was at the meetup I will admit. At the meet their was a number of different DACs hard to say.

Hey I actually appreciate that quick summary of differences there. That could come in handy! Thanks. The LCD 2s (1st revision) I heard did sound like they were warm in the bass area and although not exactly 100% neutral to my ears I thought they had a very fun sound and I don't know if I'd want...

Alright sorry guys, I just got back from working. Like I said everyone "Hears" things differently. I did think the HD 800s had a little more detail and a little more bass but that their house sound signatures where very very similar at least to my ears on the setups I tested on the particular...

@Rhamnetin the tubes were the Sasha Princess, I used the HD 800s on the Woo Audio a diy solid state amp (I'm sorry I don't remember the user here that made it it was at a meetup a few years ago. And the super 7 amp. I can elaborate more later I'm on mobile right now.

Wonderful write up, thanks for putting all this together. I do want to throw my opinion out there and I'll probably get stabbed for it but I must say that out of every headphone I've ever tested personally. The HD800's and the AKG K702s had the most similar sonic characteristics of any headphone...

I really enjoyed our last meetup, I however, no longer reside within California but Pennsylvania instead. I quite wish that I could attend, I hope everyone who goes has a lot of fun! Golden Ears's meetups are always great! haha

My apologies I thought this was for May.

I am interested in the in the fact that you can change the sound with sound dampers. I also like the easy fatique idea because in some music a lot of the DUNUs tend to be a little bright. Not often but in some classic rock it can be a little bright. This would surely fix that. Like I said...

I love that you guys continue to innovate, and adapt your products based on user feedback. In that regard your one of the fastest, if not the fastest adapting IEM company I know of. I've heard a lot of your models, and I am always welcome to try out another, so I'd love to get my hands on a pair...

Lots of interesting gear here! I'm glad your interested. Say what version of the DT 880s do you ave out of curiosity? I think we are close to planning a date to meetup, just a little more interest haha. I am looking forward to this! BTW I don't know precisely how the k1000 and similar...

Many things could certainly happen if we start to show a lot of interest in this meetup! I'm open to any of this as long as its feasible for all other members and so forth. Of course as I've said it all depends on how things work themselves out haha. I've never hosted a head-fi meetup before...

I love to see some traction building on this! :) I've noticed a lot of people have AKG 701s haha we need some variance! We have a nice selection of amps and DACs though. Once we get a few more people we can even start putting together a possible meetup date! I can only host about a max of 10...

@zniezelski No I never did have a meetup but I'm still up for one. I'm not going to even consider a date or time yet until we get at least 5 people wanting to go. So now that your interested just 4 more. :) Thanks for the interest though, I would really like to see this turn into something.

I watched MR.Nobody and have to say that it was one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. It is so powerful and portrays so much about human nature and life. How choices effect everything and life goes on with or without you. Your just a insignificant piece of the universe but that...

1. Open Soundstage 2. Airy and light sound (without lacking bass) 3. Detailed and transparent Thank you for offering this contest to fellow Head-fiers!

You can avoid this clipping by lowering the preamp in some software based EQs by how much your max DB boost is. For example lets say I'm using iTunes and have various bands set up on the EQ. My highest one is +3db, if this is the case you need to lower the db on the preamp by -3db and you won't...

Hello there fellow Head-Fi users! I've been looking for a while for a meetup in the Pittsburgh area and have yet to find anything in recent times. Now I am wondering if there is anyone interested in meeting up? It would not be a large meeting perhaps 10-15 People tops because of space...

1. I know what SACD is and have wanted to look into it but I don't currently have a SACD player. I have also have heard of DSD but don't know exactly what it is. 2. I do own some hybrid disc yes. 3. Less then 5% are SACD. 4. No it is not super important but would be nice. 5. It depends, I'd be...

I've posted my review up on head-fi here http://www.head-fi.org/products/hisoundaudio-popo/reviews/6364 I will also post it on my blog later tonight, thanks again for giving the opportunity to try these out!

I just wanted you to know that I received mine yesterday, I will have a review up this weekend or early next week. Thanks for allowing me to par take in this.

I really enjoyed 2142 as well went on today and not many servers are up... :( I really miss it, I wish they would just update the game engine as well and add a couple things sell it as battlefield 2143 or something...

Yeah that looks like a hardware problem to me too. Your going to have to use that warranty that they hopefully gave you. You can build a very nice gaming rig for under $800 now days. I've virtually built machines recently for some assignments (I'm in information technology networking...
