Just my 2 cent's worth. All of them look great, just consider removing the 2 slanted grooves around the + and -, forward and back buttons. Leave the 6 round buttons clean and simple   Less is more when it comes to design.. imho.

Twinster,   Good to hear that the HDP is serving you well. How would you say the DT1350 are like compared to the D5000? Before you decide to sell your D5000, consider having a markl mod done to them.

Here I am, taking a few months off head-fi and then I decided, hey , I need a decent headphone for home, something for music and gaming. Did some research for an affordable headphone around 200 to 300 dollars, decided on the dt 770 600ohms and BAM! I bump into this thread and now I am saving up...

I'm interested in a pair of DT 770s for home, I'm restricting myself to that model due to it being a closed headphone and as much as I would love to try out and experience open headphones, I need to block out external noises (the wife loves blasting her music on the speakers...). I've read...

I bought mine new and yes, the screw on adapter is the right one and should fit fine.

Quote: Couldn't that be due to the D2000s instead? Even after burn in on the Denons, the D2000 has bloated bass so do take that in mind.

Does anyone know how the Lyr handles with low impedance headphones like the D5000 with 25ohms?

I recommend a markl modded Denon D5000 or D7000. This might sound crazy because a lot of people think the mod reduces the bass quantity. That said, that is "partly" true, I was concerned at first because I, like you, enjoy electronic music, some of my favourite DJs are Tiesto, Marcus Schossow...

Pardon my ignorance, but why is the V200 listed as discrete-design when opamps are in the signal path? I don't mean to be rude, I'm just curious because from what I've learnt, discrete means no ICs in the design. Am I missing something?

I noticed on their website description for the V200 that there are high quality opamps in the signal paths. Anyone knows what opamps are they?   Really wished the V200 had a stepped volume attenuator instead :/   Edit: Nevermind. I found the dedicated V200 thread. 

I can vouch for the Burson 160D amp and they go well with Denons. I have a markl modded Denon.   You can always get the stand-alone amp.

I'm a bit apprehensive about tube amps. I have not tried them at all. My knowledge of them is extremely limited, what I know is that the tubes have to be changed out from time to time, seems like a hassle and I easily listen to music anything from 8 to 14 hours a day so I'm not sure how that...

Thanks for the advice estreeter. I guess I'm going ahead with getting a seperate desktop amp and probably get a really portable amp like the rsa mustang for my mobile needs. That said, I would say the desktop amp will get used more during the day compared to the portable amp; my commute is a 15...

Now my question is.. How much better is it over the L3? is it marginal or a substantial difference?

To those of you who have tried the L3, would you think it's a worthwhile replacement to a desktop amp of similar price? Aren't you paying more for the portability or rather, transportabiltiy of the L3?   I'll need to do more research of the desktop amps in the price range of 600 to 700...
