    Battle Of The Flagships (58 Headphones Compared)

    David,   Since you work in the trade, I was pondering a few things, and was hoping for a glimmer of insight.  First, as awesome as your write-up is, it doesn't necessarily make decisions easier - I find myself engaging in as much handwringing as before.  Being that the HE-6/EF-6 combo...

    Hifiman HE-6 vs Audeze LCD-3

    Quote: I have this particular combo, and I find the background to be a bit grainy.  I've heard this is a tube thing.  However, with certain music, the sound is fuller than with my Burson.

    I did a review on the D7000's a few weeks ago, comparing them to the HE-500's. It seems that I share your feelings concerning the signature of the D7000's. I've spoken with another member who has a similar POV. Is validation a bad thing? is that why we blog this stuff? I think it's easier to...

    HiFiman HE-500 (HE as in High End) Proving to be an enjoyable experience in listening.

    Quote: if i'd have waited a week or two later, i'd probably have picked up the V200 over the Lyr only due to the fact that it's solid state.  As for the Pheonix.... that should prove interesting...

    Quote: My source is my laptop running WMA lossless files through the Zune software.  I'm using the DAC on the Burson, and I'm running the GE 6BZ7 NOS tubes, which were recommended by Jason.

    Quote: Although (across the board) I haven't come to the same conclusion as you, it's always nice to know that someone somewhere is happy with their gear!  The reason I asked the question; for me, there is something missing and I am not certain if it's the headphone or the amp.  I can't...

    Quote:   I have the HE-500's and the Lyr as well.  I was wondering what you like/dislike about the pairing.

    Active Speakers/Monitors: Dispelling the ignorance, confusion and myths

    Quote: I really appreciate the input.  One of the great things about a stereo setup is the ability to share the music, and move around a bit while doing so.  I already have a HT setup - Deftech Mythos STS/Ten (center)/GemXL (surround) but no dedicated room :-( so the actives will be for 2...
