A buddy of mine just got these yesterday and I had a chance to listen to it for a bit. Jude's review really reflects my initial perception of these headphones. They are very stylish - light on the head - and great for mobile use. If i had the change to spare, I would probably pick up a pair of...

I homebrew beer!

I enjoy listening to classical and pop on my SR225s, though it may feel like it lacks a bit of bass for some pop songs, but I think its a good trade off if I could only buy one pair of headphones to listen to both genres. I can say for sure that I personally do not enjoy pop out of my k702s, but...

I've tried my HF-2s out of a Compass, Zero, and EF-2. I personally enjoyed the EF-2 the most, just my two cents.

I would avoid buying more than one Index/Mutual fund given the amount of money you have to invest. The transactions costs alone would kill your return for your principal investment. What's nice about certain Indexes, like the one I suggested: VHGEX, is that it's already diversified by asset...

Depends on what your time horizon is. You should look to longer term investments and use mutual funds or index funds if you are looking to build a healthy nest for your retirement. If you plan to leave your money in the market for 12+ years, buy a globally diversified fund like Vanguard's...

For under 200 I have tried the EF-2. This is a Dac/Amp combo, so if you already have a good DAC then this is probably not for you. But I really enjoyed listening to my HF2s out of this little amp! Head-Direct.com | YUIN

I have heard a few. They are not bad, but they do not offer as much value as other amps that are available. So I guess the bottom line is if you want more bang for the buck then the Pro-Ject amps are not what you are looking for.

Probably still back ordered. As long as you are not charged yet, then there is not much to do other than to contact Alessandro again to inquire about the delay and then wait some more. It will be worth the wait though.

I enjoy my K702's straight out of the Compass. Going to chime in that I also like pairing it with female vocals and classical!

I'm using my D2000s with the Compass and I think it offers great synergy just as everyone else has been saying. I much prefer using the Compass' amp than my MKIVse with the D2000s and from what I know, the D5000s should benefit just as well, if not even better. Hope this helps you in making a...

I highly doubt that a mod to convert open headphones to closed will be successful as well. One thing that you have to take into account is that an open headphones drivers are meant to driven a certain way. The best way to tell how your phones will sound if you closed up the back is to just put...

If you are looking for a cheap and decent amp and you want a decent DAC as well then I would go for the EF-2. I have heard it through my SR-225s and I think it sounds great. When you factor in the cost at $189 for the DAC/Amp (tube btw) then its hard to say no, especially since they are for your...

Sounds like you need a receiver, it will do Dolby Digita, DTS, etc. Most people will tell you that the headphone amp in a receiver is not the greatest, in which case I would suggest putting an amp on the line out from the receiver to your headphones. Someone correct me if I am mistaken!

Amazon used to sell them for around 220... this was a month ago. I see that the price is retail again, but if you are patient and you wait then you could potentially snag a good deal from Amazon or one of their third party sellers.

I think the choice for you is pretty straight forward, if you want portability then you should definitely go for the PICO dac/amp combo. The little dot (which ever model you were thinking of) would limit your use to when you are at your listening station. Tubes do sound great with Grados and...

Because your UEs were bought from eBay it is probably not an authorized reseller, unless the ebay listing stated otherwise. This is taken from the UE warranty info website: This limited warranty applies only to new Products purchased from Ultimate Ears or through authorized retail sellers...

I'm going to have to agree with Chronos about having two different sounding phones since that is the same train of thought that I had when I got my setup. I currently have the HF-2s and the D2000s and had the SR225s and I feel that having a closed set and an open set gives me two completely...

The ebay item page is dead give away that they stole this from LD... The specs are just copy and paste from LDs spec page. They also use MKIV (not SE) tubes, but come with 2 year warranty like the SE. Warranty not backed by HLLY but LD!!! I wonder what these guys were thinking...

I feel that the D2000s are just way to big to use while walking around on campus. If you want the flavor of the Denons then I would consider the D1001s. The 1001s have had favorable reviews from other members and if they sound similar to the D2000s then I think you will be a happy owner! (they...

The iBasso D10 gets a lot of attention and it is cheaper than the PICO for both a DAC/Amp combo. Definitely check out some of the threads on it to see if it fits your bill!

Confirming that the EF2 is USB-only. Sorry =\
