This is going to be brief because I'm tired.... But the K701, while possessive of big and full ("natural" as said before) bass with the right amplification (I'm listening to "Alone With You" by Deadmau5 right at this second which has both big, round bass and shimmery highs in it, and the K701...

Wow, I haven't been to Head-Fi in ages... and to think my wallet was safe! I own the K701 and have had extensive listening experience with the 325i... based on what you describe as your musical tastes and so forth, between those two (as the ones I have actually heard) I would probably...

Grado woodies.... bahahahahhaha..... I didn't even catch that until just a second ago. But really? The sexiest sound I have heard has been from HD650s... I don't own them, but I had a lengthy listen to a pair of them a little while ago. I found them very warm and intimate overall... plus...

This thread will be a challenge! Let's see... I don't think I will beat a lot of people here though! The Tragically Hip was the first legit concert I ever attended, some point in the late 90s, I think it was when Phantom Power was their most recent album. I've since seen them during the In...

Californication is exceptionally bad... also Kaiser Chiefs' "Yours Truly Angry Mob", an album which I have to turn down every time I listen to. The opening chords of "Ruby" almost killed my ears once as it came on the old Shuffle right after I finished listening to Rachmaninov. On the flip...

I was at my local record store today (Zulu Records, West 4th, Vancouver... woot!) and found a copy of Jaco Pastorius' self-titled LP, 1976 pressing on Epic records... aside from sleeve shelf wear, it's unplayed. CAT # PE 33949. I love Pastorius, so this was... Jackpot! Now... I looked this...

Hey, this is not a bad thread... In Kingston, Ontario,there are a few neat stores: Brian's Record Option, in the Hub, Princess St. - This place is incredibly cramped and dusty and dark, but it is wall-to-wall with records of all kinds, an absolutely huge selection... mostly older stuff...

My amp has no on/off switch... so on, I guess.

So... I've been reading this lengthy thread and some other threads, and have noticed the DA100 Signature... and my question is as follows. If I have no plans to be going to a Balanced system in the foreseeable future, is there any reason to drop the extended coin on the Signature?

I just received a pair of PK2 a couple of days ago and have been listening to them extensively through my iPod (they're going to be my main portable 'phones), and I must say I'm impressed! They kick the crap out of my old (now-dead) Vibes IMHO, very fun and involving sound, I would agree with...

I am extremely tempted to answer "the Depths of Sheol" just for a laugh. But really, I don't catch any discernible noise at reasonable listening volume, and my computer sits about 2 feet from my DAC and a metre from my amp...
