I got these straight from Japan via Tenso right as Dsnuts got the hype train rolling last fall. Bought 3 pairs, of which I gave one to a colleague (yes,they are so inexpensive you can just give...
Reposting my original review from Amazon.com - these headphones are just too good to be left in the dustbin of history - for instance, I just bought a pair of Monoprice MEP-933, listed everywhere...
Somehow, the Ballad of Jed Clampett comes to mind, as I start to write this. You know, the Beverly Hillbillies. He was living his life, struck gold, and everything changed. That's kind of what...
Hi, Head-fiers. This is my first post as a newbie in the forum.
I will give a short introduction of myself. I am 18 years old currently studying in high-school. I love headphones because...
Well this just seems to be some of the most impulsive buying I have ever seen.
That's what head-fi is all about though, no? If it's not, please clue me in LOL!
Regardless, I would buy the amp based on H20's and other's endorsement of it. And the price is right. I'm not really sure that I need it, but I do know that I want it!
If you follow the thread and not just the last page miow has taken the plunge on the $300 C&C X02, he has no need for the BH anymore, and bought them around the same time before his BH even arrived.
All this hype! And from people who haven't even heard the amp! Good grief.
You're already selling yours, miow? And for nearly half the price you paid... must be an awesome amp!
Have no idea, haven't heard it yet. Will arrive tomorrow from customs with a 85€ customs fee over it. Selling it to help funding the XO2 purchase. CLARIFIED DUDE?????
I have been considering buying this thing, but I have lost a lot of confidence over the last few pages. Has anyone besides H2O actually heard it? What does it compare to?
I don't want to be cranky, it's just aggravating seeing "BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT!!! It's the best thing... I've never used it, BUT BUY IT!"

There should be some more impressions coming in soon, so maybe wait until then if you're concerned. So far there are some solid impression links at the bottom of the OP and myself who have been rather impressed. I can confidently say without a doubt if you're coming from E11 this is a big step up, I have no doubt what so ever.
Please check the OP for those impressions as more come in they will be added.
Now take a CHILL pill, or listen to some Chillout for a while, read the other members reviews from the first page and go get the amp later ; )
I must be able to provide an in-depth review of the CH vs E11 vs JDSLabs C421 by tomorrow/Wednesday when I FINNALY listen to it. Still hold in customs.
The thread is at a stage where members have ordered awaiting delivery, so there's going to be some excitement, expectations and floater pages between the next set of impressions. But for those who did decide to get in early, I think you'll be pleased.
As explained in a.other thread, head-fi has the case of the "flavor of the month" and generally hype leads to a lot of happy customers. I've endorsed this amp while not owning it myself... Yet... It's been shipped and I'm just waiting, but when someone is being wishy washy in the thread, its almost as if they're being asked to be given a reason to buy it, so I just kinda give that nudge a few posts back. Like I said you really have nothing to lose by being an early adapter in these forums... That is unless you're like miow and you get bent over by customs
