For sale are my trusty Focal Clear. Selling only because I'm the lucky owner of a pair of Stellia. WARNING!!! The original short cable (1,2 meters) is not included: I'm replacing it with a generic aftermarket short cable bought on Amazon and much more comfortable. The other long cables (6,3...

For sale are my beloved HD800, as I actually only have ears for my Stellia. Earpads are still useable but they will need a replacement soon. The headband foam is flattened. Original box. There's a (usual) mark on the left cup (see picture). Shipping into Europe included. Paypal only. Feel...

Sold out of the forum. Thanks!

On behalf of a friend for sale is a Musical Fidelity MX-HPA fully balanced headphone amplifier. Two headphone jacks on SE and one on balanced for double 3-pin connector. Balanced and SE inputs. It seamlessly transforms an SE connection into balanced, so you don't need a balanced source to enjoy...

Best seller: responsive and careful with the shipping and its follow up. Don't hesitate to deal with him: I would love to to it again.

Quote:   Thanks Terps: really appreciate it. Didn't know anything about the K550 but a fast reading showed me that looks brighter sounding compared to the 840. Anyhow, there's a point that bothers me about the D7: USB powered. Sometimes real evil voltage is coming out of laptops...

I had the D12 + SRH840 wich I found a good pairing: bass on the Shure got tight due maybe to the relative brightness of the D12. To me, it seemed that both tonal balances compensated each other.   Now that I have recovered the 840, I'm thinking again of getting an Ibasso. Anybody could...

I would be highly interested in how they compare to DT1350. Several references of both relating DT880, both closed, both in the same price range, both with non-emphasized bass, both very detailed and resolutive, both quite sensitive, both low impedance... but, which one wins? Any lucky owner...

My apologies. Thank you nikongod.

  Quote: I could not either compare directly both outputs in equivalent conditions since I had the stock SE cable and a Cardas balanced. So, I don't know how much of the improvement perceived was due to the better quality of the cable and how much to the output. The benefit of...

  Quote: The way I see it is that the amp sounds its best when feeded with a balanced source, since its capable to take advantage of the balanced signal through the XLR inputs. But when it comes to the outputs, TRS and XLR are the same and diferent sound quality between them can be...
