Quote: hmmmm..... i think one major selling point of the TH900 is the red wine paint that comes from some exotic japanese supplier that apparently was founded in the 19th century? :D Also update on gears, Little Dot managed to send me their latest asynchronous USB interface (XMOS...- pkjames

don't know if it has been mentioned here, buydig is selling ATH-W1000x for $429. Cheaper than many 2nd hands here. I spent almost $400 to get a pair of 2nd hands from Japan! http://www.buydig.com/shop/product.aspx?sku=ATHW1000X- pkjames

Update on my gears: I sold my HD600 and instead getting the of HE500, I got a pair of Beyer T1. So the gears I will bring: Stello D100s + modded Little Dot MK 6 + Balanced T1. I may also bring along a DIY PCM1794 DAC + DIY EMP/Mogan Jones + AT W1000x, depending on if AT is attending...- pkjames

oh well, i am now using my LD6 to drive beyerdynamic T1 exclusively, best stuff I have so far. It may not pair with other high Z cans well, but certainly synergizes with the T1.- pkjames

even in china i know hifiman controls the price really really strictly. the dealers can only throw in a lot of freebies like headphone stands, balanced cable etc. to somehow discount the price abit but here is virtually no chance for a cheaper upfront price.- pkjames

The idea of liquid glass is really really good. Tks a billion different types of tubes and the SS power section just there to faithfully reflects the characteristic of the input tubes. Wonder how it compares with the LD 6/8.- pkjames

why not consider LD dac 3? what i like most of it is the IIS input so you can just get the LD UA_I for asynchronous usb interface.- pkjames

The T1 is back to $1199. For some reason amazon cancelled my $938 order from 3rd party seller citing technical error and got me to order form amazon @ $950. They offered free shipping to aus for the inconvenience so it worked out like $2 better off for me:D- pkjames

i think the algorithm amazon employs is that it will set a "minimum" price, and start to gradually drop towards to that price, if someone buys in the meantime, it will either slow down the price drop or even to backwards. I have seen this behavior in quite a few instances. In some occasion, the...- pkjames
