Have you considered DIY? You could have saved at least one limb.

Are they on-ear or around-ear? or around-head?

Did you find balancing the T1 made much of a difference (don't want to go back for a balanced amp now though.... but interested all the same!)

Judging by its cable, it's probably they are around-neck type of headphones

Posted this on the Stax thread, but may as well post it here too:

 

 

 

 

I have to sell the Wyred 4 Sound DAC-1 for now unfortunately, but will very likely come back to it few months down the road. I'll have to chug along with the good old Stello DA100 meanwhile...

Yes.

I find the difference big enough to justify sticking to balanced setups.

 

However, if you have the V200 you don't need to worry,

as project86 who auditioned both the V181 and V200 (and wrote great reviews) kept the V200.

For single end the V200 must be the winner.
