Amp recommendations for Fostex TH900?
Thanks for the recommendation. The HD650 / GS-1 certainly sounds interesting. I have, however, already bought the TH900 (for practical reasons, I wanted to get closed-back cans) so am committed to finding an amp that does it justice. The GS-1 is not amp I previously considered but I'll...- 2tone

Amp recommendations for Fostex TH900?
I auditioned the HP-V8 briefly at a trade show and was very impressed. Really loved the warmth of the 300Bs. But, as you've already pointed out, it's a beast...almost as big as a microwave oven!- 2tone

Amp recommendations for Fostex TH900?
Talking about solid state, I've recently gotten my TH900 paired (or perhaps I should say in a foursome!) with an iFi Dac2, iTube buffer and iCan SE amp. I've auditioned the TH900 previously with a number of other DAC/amp combos (including the HPA8 and Schiit Biforst/Lyr) and while I never...- 2tone

ENIGMAcoustics Dharma
Reviews of the Dharmas are starting to seem like Elvis sightings - are they real or imaginary?! Seriously though, I hope they can fix whatever production issues they are encountering before everyone who is waiting for them loses their patience. Me? I ain't waiting. Life's too short. I've got...- 2tone

Meze 99 Classics USA/Canada Tour - Reviewers Wanted
Had an opportunity to play around briefly with the 99 Classics and compare them with a pair of the similarly priced Sennheiser Momentum. I thought the 99s sounded pretty impressive for the price. The sound stage won't make headlines obviously given the closed back design, but the mid-range was...- 2tone

iFi iUSB3.0 launch. Names back in the hat and new #2 Winner! (page 24)
Range: Micro Model: iUSB 2 Reason: And with that last clue, it can't be anything other than iUSB 2. No volume dial means it can't possibly be an iCan 2, iTube 2 or iDSD 2.- 2tone

iFi iUSB3.0 launch. Names back in the hat and new #2 Winner! (page 24)
Range: Micro Model: iCan 2 What if everyone on this thread has got it wrong and it's actually the iCan 2 with a big bunch of magic tricks built in like a DAC, IsoPower, signal regenerator, etc, etc? Is that outside the realm of possibilities....?- 2tone

ENIGMAcoustics Dharma
I had the chance to try a pre-production Dharma at the recent Hong Kong High-End Audio Visual Show and speak to the rep. They had the Dharma setup with an iFi stack (iCan, iTube and iDac2) and they seemed pretty well matched. I wouldn't disagree with what's been written about the frequency...- 2tone

Thanks. The oBravo HAMT-1 are way out of my budget. But I might have to add the Aedle VK-1 to my shopping list - by all accounts they don't sound too shabby either!- 2tone

Sennheiser HD 700 Impressions Thread
Not sure if this is the right thread (i'm too new to be allowed to start a new thread), but my question is: in the same price range as the HD700, what are the alternatives - both open and closed back? In the market at the moment to completely overhaul my listening setup - dac, amp...- 2tone

Apologies for digging up an old(ish) thread, but can anyone identify what models are the first and last pair of headphones in the quoted post? They look awesome! :) Quote:- 2tone
