I have the Fidelio X1 for a long time now and I've heard a lot of people recommend a tube amp to bring out the mids a little bit more. I'm torn between the Woo Audio WA6 (699$) and the Pan Am (499$, on sale for 399$). Anyone any experience with these setups? I like the looks of the Woo Audio...

Wow.. Incredible..

How do you like your new system ACDOAN? Can't wait for a review :p

Just ordered mine for 215€ from a Belgian webshop (I'm from Belgium myself) http://www.electromania.be/televisie/toebehoren-televisie/philips-x100.html   How I stumbled upon these is quite the miracle as they're listed under "Tv Accessories"... Can't wait till they arrive!   I'm...

Sorry to post in this old thread, but it was the only one showing up searching Jason Molina. R.I.P. Jason.

I want to connect my M-Audio AV40's and the sub of a Z5500 to an Audigy2 card. I've connected the AV40's were the front speakers should go on the soundcard and the sub in the sub connection of the card. Now, the speakers work but the sub doesn't. Anyone an idea why this is? Or is something...

Well, the new cans would only be used for rock. For allround I have my HD598 and for bass I'm looking at the Denon AH-D2000. I don't really believe in the 'allround best headphone' (not at this pricepoint anyways. So SR225i it is? And does it sound good with the flatpads? I really like the...

I'm a big fan of my SR60i. Really love the sound signature. Now.. If I would climb up the grado ladder, which one should I pick to get the same sound signature but have more refinement? I've heard that the RS2i is much closer to the sound sig of the SR60i then the SR225i & SR325is. Is this...

Quote: Maybe something from Beyerdynamic? They have some good v shaped ones. Don't know what your price range is tho.

Still no side to side comparisons with the Adam A5x? I really want to buy new speakers but I can't audition any one of them..

Quote:   Well, it depends on what you want in music. A lot of the stuff you mention sounds best with some bass body in it. The HD598 has very well controled good bass but it's still an open back phone which means it's clear and all but doesn't have much body. I personally don't care...

Quote:   Just wanted to let you know, if it's a price/quality thing you're worrying about, don't! They are well worth over 200$ imho. Here in Europe they cost +-230€ (+- 300$). I bought mine 2 weeks ago and like them every day more and more. Remarkable clairity, stereo-imaging, highs...

  Quote:   No, you don't need an amp for the HD598's. But.. It will sound better with a simple amp like the Fiio E7. Also the bass boost helps a lot with the HD598's imho. I know a lot of people on here don't like equalizing but I find with most open ended headphones a small bass bump...

I'm sitting with my new HD598 on my head for about an hour now and let me say, I'm impressed! Not really much time for a review atm but one will follow soon.

I have a Sennheiser HD598 and a Grado 60i. Would buying an external headphone amp make any real audible difference compared to the Mini-i's build in one?
