Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Same, just have a detachable cable. With the right amp, the highs are just fine on th900 imo. Running them on Audeze Deckard. Beautiful combo.- elvamir

The Closed Wars: MrSpeakers ETHER C vs. Audeze LCD-XC vs. Fostex TH900 vs. MrSpeakers Alpha Prime vs Fostex TH-X00 - Comparison
Any chance of adding the Sony MDR-Z7 to your review list? Supposedly an incredible closed back entry but would love to know how they match up to these other heavyweights.- elvamir

Livesoundwave showroom opening in Orlando,FL.
See my post above yours. Same thing. I'm pretty sure they are closed. I actually drove 45 minutes out there on a weekday a couple weeks ago. Middle of the day, the store was closed. Looking through the windows I saw tables with what looked like Christmas gift baskets set up filled with headphone...- elvamir

Livesoundwave showroom opening in Orlando,FL.
Are you guys still open? For the last two days I have called and left several voicemails (during the "business hours"), have emailed your customer support, emailed Catherine, and tried your chat on the website but the link doesn't work. I live in Oviedo so hate to drive 40 minutes just to find...- elvamir

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
The Audeze Deckard is a great pair. I posted my thoughts about it some pages back, and that convinced another reader to get it and he agreed it's a great match.- elvamir

Amp recommendations for Fostex TH900?
If you look on the TH-900 thread, I posted the same comment over there about how much I like this pairing, and someone decided to buy the Deckard based on that recommendation. They later posted feedback that I steered them in the right direction and they are loving it. So aside from myself...- elvamir

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Hey just wondering whether you think I steered you in the right direction or if you're gonna hunt me down for the money you spent? :-P Hope you're enjoying this combo as much as I am.- elvamir

Audeze Deckard - class A amp, USB DAC
Mute. They are not pass-thru type outputs. They also require the amp to be on and the volume knob will adjust the output level.- elvamir

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Whoa. That's a lot of pressure on me to be right! Lol. I'm sure you won't be disappointed, but will be curious to hear your thoughts and see how much you (hopefully) agree! I'm listening right now and can honestly say it's continued to improve as the amp and headphones break in over time...- elvamir

Audeze Deckard - class A amp, USB DAC
They control it. They are not passive outputs. For them to work, the Deckard needs to be turned on and the volume knob will control the output.- elvamir

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
I know there is a thread to discuss recommended amps for these, but thought I would mention it here as well that I've now paired my TH900's with the Audeze Deckard and wow! A synergy that is truly meant to be. I think the Deckard's slight warmth is a perfect compliment, and the low noise floor...- elvamir

Audeze Deckard - class A amp, USB DAC
Agreed, in that mine gets warm but nothing of concern, I'd say. It's clear the design of the chassis is that it works as a heatsink, so pulling the heat to the surface is better than it sitting on the components, I say. :-) Also agree that it was a great review! I concur on all fronts, although...- elvamir

Audeze Deckard - class A amp, USB DAC
Just got the Deckard yesterday, after demoing and hearing the great synergy between it and the Fostex TH900's. That is now my primary listening combo. Loving this amp so far, and it's day 2. Can only imagine after it breaks in over time. Already very low noise floor (on all gains but...- elvamir

Amp recommendations for Fostex TH900?
So yesterday, after testing it all day at a Head-Fi meet in Orlando, I made this pairing: TH900's with the new Audeze Deckard and... Wow. Clean, nice punchy bass, good air around the instruments. Great synergy all around. Tried the Fostex on several other sources but nothing paired quite like...- elvamir

Hey all, this is Mike (aka HiFi59 Jr, aka Mike 3 at the meet, aka the bald guy!) What a great time, great products, great hosts, and great people. LiveSoundwave is so professional and friendly. Really was worth the Saturday to attend. Besides, if I hadn't, I would have never discovered the...
