Went to the same place as yesterday to continue yesterday's headphone meet...

 

The host (mcgino) actually showed up with the Sony R10s this time:

At 24 years of age these phones are older than most of you

 

Here's the phones clad in huge leather case complete with bronze plaque

 

Sheepskin earpads showing a vintage look

Earcups made of some hundred year old oak or other, bio-cellulose drivers inside

 

As for listening:

dustdevil's comment: "the r10 sounded pretty good, and they are extremely comfortable.  They are really airy for a closed hp, and emphasize the upper vocals somewhat in a pleasant way."

Me and Boris also noted the above mentioned positive qualities but also noted a distinct lack of bass.  At #17, these were made really early in the 1000-pair R10 run and belonged to the bass-light early model.  Later examples of the R10 are supposedly more "bass-heavy";  from what we've heard of this pair we can only assume that by "bass heavy" they mean "less bass-light". wink.gif

Hi guys, I'll be visiting Hong Kong 2nd week of May. Two queries:

 

1. How much does a Cayin HA-1A costs? Where is the best place to buy, AV Gala?

 

2. Where is the best pace to buy Darkvoice 337SE or La Figaro 339? How much do they cost?

 

Thanks in advance!

Should have tried your H Amp....(Will it be available somewhere?And If I'm correct, this is designed for ACG music right?)

There will be a Meet sometime later this summer.
Ill post details once we've got the whole thing sorted.

 

Nah, just because I'm a huge ACG fan doesn't mean I tune amps for them. tongue.gif

The amp section of P-H is an Objective2, you can expect minimal colorization.
