Fantastic shootout, thank you @gardibolt

Great album, where did you get the DSD version?

I pick my Mojo up tomorrow with a coax cable when i visit London (courtesy of Custom-cable), i can't wait to give it a listen!

Id love to meet, we last had one 2 years ago, long overdue!

Just to say, im listening to Andrew Birds Break it Yourself on the 560s using my laptop as a source and my Fiio X3 original as a source and its so beautiful im getting a pain in my heart (hopefully its just the beauty of the music and not the amount of food and drink ive had over the week).  ...

So i visited NYC and i wanted to buy some Hifiman HE560s   I went to AC Gears where the staff were friendly, they had a pretty small selection of gear but couldnt find a price match for me on their website for the 560s, so i left and went to Stereo Exchange. This is an impressive business with...

Hey Emilsoft. How did you like the 560 with the Mojo, im leaning towards a Mojo but im not certain if its the best choice with the 560 (my main headphone)

Definitely give the 560s timer to burn in. The packaging recommends 150 hours, i know after 100 hours my 560s sound like totally different headphones (i was a little underwhelmed when i opened them first too)

Thanks ksb643, i think youve pushed my decision to yes side!

Thank you Vanquisher

Thanks a mill, i think ill treat myself this Christmas if i can find an Irish retailer! I expect that they do sound great!

Has anybody tried the 560 with the Chord Mojo? Ive seen some posts about the Chord Hugo, this seems to be capable of driving the 560s very nicely, how about the Mojo? Is it a good match (or do i need to keep saving?)

So Ive heard that the Gustard H10, the Lyr/Bifrost, the Chord Mojo and the EF100 are all good amps from this forum.   My reference setup was the HE6 and the EF6 but thats outside of my budget. Ive just bought the HE 560 and i want to get the best amp to match. I dont need portability, what do...

Picked them up in New York for 699!!!!

What are the prices?

So im arriving tomorrow, B&H, Stereo Exchange and AC Gears on my to visit List as well as Academy Records on 14th street.   Any other tips?

Thanks henryp. By AK i meant Astell & Kern!

Im considering the EF100 as well, i have read that it was built with the 560 in mind, hopefully ill get to try it out next week in New York.

Wow this is an old thread.   So if i buy a HIFIMAN Amp (the EF100 for example) in the US i need a transformer. Am I better off buying the UK model then when im back in Ireland?

Thanks Tylerchris   I intend to try StereoExchange and ACGears over the week. Any other tips for good stores?

Im intending to buy one or the other, both are similar price when im in New York next week.    BTW i dont have a DAC so ill have to use my Fiio X3 im assuming if i get the EF5.   Any advice please?

Im thinking of getting it in the US and bringing it home to Europe. Is there a UK power cable that comes with it or does it just need a power adapter?

How did you do with the visit? Ive been to B&H and hoping to get to AC Gears and Stereo Exchange next time im over

Is B&H still the most likely venue in Manhattan for decent stuff (im particularly looking at HifiMan and AK.

Ultrasone Signature Pros are worth a thought (i have them and they are very good). I know a lot of people like the Mr Speakers headphones, ive only tried them at a meet so am not an expert.
