They just changed the price. It's the same seller (Phenom Savings).

Best deal since the uptown (@$40). Checking this thread daily finally pays off, but I'm not going to celebrate until it actually ship.

I also got the Uptown deal at $40!  Gave them to my sister for her birthday, she loves them.

This, but I ended up selling the uptowns as they need a good seal and don't make for good walking headphones (despite marketing ads)...

Hopefully these make better portables? Or are these not for portable use at all? If not I can just give it away.

I'd buy a pair :c

I don't have any headphones right now that I like listening to, since my K267s don't arrive until the end of January.

I bought in a while ago but the group just got big enough to drop the price! Market price for these is almost $300, it might be worth buying some just to flip online. 

 

Either way, here's the link. The buy is only on for another couple hours so get in while you can!

 

https://www.massdrop.com/buy/matrix-mstage-dac

just a note on that, some say the odac and msII are better, and less at average price.

The only amp listed that can really handle the HE-6 is the EF6. All the other ones really won't give it enough power. If someone is hesitant to get a HE-6 because they think they'll need to spend over a grand, head over the HE-6 thread. You can get an amp for under $200 that easily power the HE-6 and make it sound fantastic.

But they say that the EF-6 is the better choice.  I'd figure the Lyr has the juice for it as well... but I'd question a Burson HA-160 handling it.

 

Huh, I find that interesting, since Skylab nearly scoffed at me about 3 months ago for saying the Soloist had enough power for the HE-6. Wonder if he got a demo unit...


HiFiMan says that the EF-5 will drive it:

Also found this from Playback that agrees that the EF-5 will drive it, as will the Burson HA-160--albeit just:

I'll let you know more when mine comes in.

If you read up on the HE-6 and HE-6 amplification thread, you'll see that the burson and ef5 don't provide enough power at all. The result will there will be sound but it will sound bass light and extremely bright to the point of being unable to listen.

Any feedback from the use of vintage receiver (1970's & early/mid 80's) headphone jacks with the HE-6?
