Some have reported a certain level of distortion when combining ultra low output impedance (of the O2) with 32ohm cans.
So while we're on the topic of Magnum amplification, I'm wondering if anyone out there can comment on pairing with Schiit amps (such as the Asgard or even the Vahlhalla). I built my first pair of Mags (thanks to you guys!) and I'm beginning the search for my ideal pairing. Anyway, I've heard Schiit amps pair well with Grados. Would the same logic apply to the Magnums to some extent?
If you want my 2 cents, I think your money is better spent on source rather than amp. Of all the amps i have my favorite set up for the Magnums is straight out of the HO of the HM-603. You can get these for $300 - $400 (new/used) and the DAC stage can be used with your computer or as a stand alone player, and the warmish sound signature pairs well with the Magnums.
Be careful when buying wooden cups off of eBay ...
BEWARE! The individual, Farvekiln, is actually JSChristian44 - who was a Member of the Trade here on this form with the company: Justin's Headphone Modding.
This person is now banned on this forum, and in the feedback on eBay under JSChristian44, has a lot of negative claims where people who purchased his Fostex T50RP "Maplepants" headphones have been requesting 100% refunds because of the junk that was built. Additionally, his reason for being banned on this site is because he's collected cash (PayPal) and / or headphones to modify for other members and basically disappeared. He's actually in Alaska for the summer doing some work, but it doesn't look good for most of the people who have paid him for work because he asked for PayPal "Gift" payments.

I don't mean to tell you your business, but if I were you, I'd initiate that claim today. There is no further proof required to know he is a scammer. The sooner his PP account gets shut down, the better it is for those who may yet send him funds.
