    Audio Technica ATH-W5000 headphones

    I love these with Yamamoto HA-02 tube amp, there is something magical about this combo, especially female voices as many have said. Even better than the W3000ANV. It is not the same with any other solid state amp like Naim Headline or Benchmark

    Audio Technica ATH-W5000 headphones

    I have several good headphones, but ATH W5000 powered with Yamamoto HA-02 is the most I love. They don't sound that good with my portable or solid state amps. Probably tube amps add a lot to bass and lower mids which balance them better. They are less detailed than Stax O2 or HD800, but are very...

    Fostex HP-P1 Portable Amplifier and DAC for iPod/iPhone (Short REVIEW and Impressions Thread)

    Quote: It tops off my iPod Nano 2010 model pretty fast.Must be that the two batteries level off when connected.  I guess it can do so several times before the HP-P01 drains off completely, probably as the iPod nano battery consumes/stores less power than a touch/iPhone due to smaller size.

    New Flagship from Audio-Technica: ATH-W3000ANV, 50th Anniversary Headphones

    Received my W3000anv and am glad I picked them up.I would have missed them till AT released another flagship. They look gorgeous and fit very comfortably for me. W5000 was a bit loose and W1000x was a little uncomfortable for me due to the pads touching my ears.Build quality is not as good as...

    New Flagship from Audio-Technica: ATH-W3000ANV, 50th Anniversary Headphones

    Thanks for the great posts people. I finally gave into my temptation and bit the bullet...love this place !!!  Couldn't resist the thought of  W3000ANV sitting along with 1000x and 5000, driven through my beloved Yammy HA 02. By the impressions so far, these seem to be very enjoyable phones. I...

    Fostex HP-P1 Portable Amplifier and DAC for iPod/iPhone (Short REVIEW and Impressions Thread)

    My iPod Nano shows the HP-P01  version as  1.1.0   I am very happy with this feature as  I may be able to use the HP-P01 to recharge my iPod several times during long flights. I almost bought an external battery during my last flight.

    I am addicted (only) to headphones. It all started from 2004,with Sennheiser 515, 555, PXC 350 and now the 650, 800. I have burnt a big chunk of my hard earned savings and am willing to burn more considering the audio bliss I will get by the improvements in sound you guys produce through your...

    Skylab, many thanks for your impressions, As always, I have learnt a lot by your experience. Also eager to listen to others who have heard Yammy, AT1000x and AT5000, specifically Muppetface. The suspense in this thread is thrilling (Still not sure if I should invest in W3000, only based on the...

    Stax Help

    Completely agree with Seacard, used O2 and Stax amp are great performers with the best value for money. Other amps are expensive, not easily available. Enjoy and choose based on what you listen. Guitar sub tones of Queen are just sublime on O2, nothing comes close. Good luck and if you are...
