Upgrading (or according to some 'sidegrading') headphones you haven't even heard yet? That is pretty quick.

YOLO. I got the refund, will buy th900 the end of this month XD

And for sure you won't ever wonder again, how you personally would have found thx00 compared to th900. Happy ending.
900 might be technically better. But there are people, who prefer x00 over 900. I definitely wanna try both before choosing preference. Not to choose blindly. But YMMV.

Yes, I just wanna invest and stop wondering again. This should be my last investment to headphones. Else, Ill be working out on amp/dac that suits TH900.

I feel like I waste a lot of money and time by buying mid tier cans. So, use the money and buy the high end and enjoy.

Thinking of buying iFi Audio Micro iCan as the amp/dac for TH900. Do u have any experience with it?

Does anyone know if old denon ear pads will screw right on?

Yes. A little bit tight, but can put on w/o any problem. I'm using the stock D7000 pads and the Lawton Angle Pads for D7000. Don't like the stock pads of THX00.

Between these two, I definitely like the X00 better for its slightly more neutral sound and better vocals. Sold the TH900 w/o any regret, but I'm not gonna sell the THX00.

I have experience with Micro iCan. Owned it for about a year. Pretty good, but sounds kind of artificial compared to Mojo. I could never switch back to iCan after Mojo.
For a long time I thought headphones are the most important component of one's system. I always had mid tier amps/DACs (£100-250).
Mojo has changed the way I look at audio gear. It really brings HQ audio of £1000+ DACs to the average consumer for £400.
And brings out the best of every headphones I have ever tried with it. Completely transformed my X2s. But enough of the praise, everyone has to try themselves.

Imo "last investment" just doesn't exist in this hobby.

I am equally curious to hear x00s and 900s. Couldn't choose one of them without auditioning.

Awesome. I am going to order a pair of those POM plates (the plastic ring that screws the earpad in) so I can avoid swapping it out if switching earpads.

What model is that? (Your Mojo)
 
I heard Fostex HPA8 is good for TH900.

Chord Mojo. The most hyped DAC since last Christmas. Using innovative technology, and bringing sound quality of £1-2000 DACs for £400. I suggest you to read some of the Mojo thread here on head-fi.

Just read some reviews in amazon. Seems like the price is $599. Is it only DAC?

£400, $600. It is a DAC and amp. But combined. There is no separate DAC or amp section. But in practice it is a DAC and and amp.
Buying this little device was the biggest jump in my entire audio history regarding sound quality and well spent money. Simply incredible.

Wow, months back a few people were trying to find these rings but nobody got an idea, now they pop up like they have always been there.
Quoting the pals in the hope of helping them know.
 
Quote:

  The elliptical shape of the Alpha pads takes a little bit of muscle to stretch them around the plastic ring. Also don't be too afraid to bend the ring inwards to get the pads to stretch around. I was worried the ring would break when I bent it but it didn't.
 
Ideally it would be nice to have another identical plastic mounting ring for the TH-X00. That way it would be very easy to do a comparison with the stock pads. Just twist to unlock the mounting ring and swap pads. Is there somewhere I can order this mounting ring?

 
 

  Has anyone found a place to buy an extra pair of mounting rings for these? I recently got a pair of HM5s for these and tried to secure them to the cans using the mounting ring system. It was a big struggle just to get them to finally fold over the mounting ring, but then when I tried to rotate them into the locking mechanism they wouldn't budge. Had to make some incisions on the pad's lip so the material which was bunching up near the prongs of the mounting ring could be folded through the hole behind each prong. I made a few extra incisions to help relieve some of the stress which might have caused the bigger incisions to rip more over time. They screw on and off now with reasonable ease, not as smoothly as the stock pads but it's functional.

That sudden spending streak tho. Hope you will finally be satisfied with that combo, your wallet must hate you so much lol

I just received a Fiio X1 that I bought from a member here and I'm looking it a lot so far. Anyone here think it's a good paired with the TH-00's since it's efficient?
