What do people like? Z1R? 820s? Meze Liric? Something else? I briefly had a pair of Audeze LCD-XCs which I didn't like. (Can't remember why, didn't have them long)

Recommendations for cables for this? I'm looking for 3.5mm and 6.2mm.

Any thoughts comparing the WA22 to the IHA-1? These are right in my sweet spot for tube amps to drive my Audeze LCD-5 phones right now.

Are there opinions on this amp? @ $2200 price looks good, and only 3 tubes to mess with is appealing.

Power Strip I'm not sure if you get a power cable for your $4K...

If there's a thread discussing this already feel free to link, or just tell me what to look for. My question. I'm seeing balanced (XLR) being very popular for everything from headphone to amp to interconnects. Even a CD player offering XLR connections. Is there a audible advantage to using a...

Is there a consensus on software to RIP CDs? Mac preferred. I'm currently using XLD, or Mac Music. I have about 1000 cds to RIP and don't want to have to re-do this job anytime soon, so quality is highest priority.

Less Loss In some ways they seem like another high-end wire company. Then there are these products: Blackbody & Laminar Streamer A $90K sd card player? Read the descriptions.

Has anyone tried converting open LCD-2 headphones to closed? It appears swapping the grill out would be all it would take.

There are two cable threads going with now over 700 posts between them. Is there a point? Does anybody think they are going to change anybodies mind? Does anyone think they have gained anything by reading these posts, after posts, after posts? Don't you have better things to do than argue...

So how does the AD2000 compare to the Senn HD650? I have been asking myself that since my AD2000 arrived here on Thursday. Looks and Feel: The AD is very light, and very comfortable. The ear pads do rest on your ears rather than around them like the HD. Not a bad thing just different. The are...

Is there any difference in sound between these? Opinions on the 325 being worth the extra bucks?

One is open, one is closed. Both new, about the same price. Has anyone listened to both? Anyone care to compare? Seems a lot of interest in the Sony, but not the AT. My impression was the Sony was closed, I might be wrong there.

So I am feeling a bit antsy, and am starting to think about either upgrading my CD3000s to a Woodie or replacing them with something new. Does anyone have a feel for how the Sony SA5000's compare to the ATH-AD2000's? Same price at Audio Cubes, and are right in the price range I am looking for...
