The weight does take some time getting used too! But, I just love the sound.   Looks like I'll be making a purchase soon! I appreciate the responses David.

  Mostly the HE-500's, however I am thinking about picking up a Beyer T5P sometime in the future. I hear mostly good things with the pairing and the thought of rolling some tubes and the LISST intrigues me quite a bit. Appears I get the best of both world's really with a Lyr purchase getting...

I appreciate the rather quick response. I've been looking through that thread and didn't come across that portion... but unfortunately didn't make my decision any easier.  Thanks!

Thinking about pulling the trigger on one of these Lyr 2's... however I'm worried that a 3 is around the corner? Should I hold off? I haven't really seen any information regarding any of the upcoming Schiit lineups.   Thanks

Just saw the news.. RIP :(

Just saw the news this morning.

I'm pushing around 800 cds of various genres and around 50gbs of music on the hard drive. I at least give everything one listen through. My newly acquired HE-500's are keeping me quite busy. Still trying to figure how I'm going to continue to have the room for my growing cd collection. Happy...

Long time lurker. Finally got my hands on some HE-500s.. And most recently picked up some of the FocusA pads, however the stitching between the velour and pleather isn't as neat as I was expecting. If I'm not mistaken Head Direct does indeed specify this.. but I'm debating to ask for an...

           

You are in the clear my friend. I take that as 100% permission.   .... and while you are at it. Get those T1's

Quote: Plugging my Pro 750's into an MP3 player, they get at a decent level of volume. But the clarity isn't quite up to par... and the bass seems a bit muddy to me. Amp certainly does tighten that all up.   Also, these headphones work surprisingly well if pairing with a receiver/...

The more popular choice out of those would be the Denon, but I've been an Ultrasone fan for awhile now, though they are not much loved by a number of folks around here...   I've owned the Pro 750 for about two years now. As most headphones, they do great in many areas, but of course I...

After literally running through this entire thread.. in about 5 days.. I've pretty much come to the conclusion that I'll be purchasing a Asgard sometime down the road. Only a few questions:   Any thought/ expressions on the deemed setup?   Marantz CD-5004 > Schitt Asgard > Beyer Pro880...

As an employee at Best Buy... I must say you do get a pretty darn good discount on some of the home audio equipment, and of course.... the headphones

Quote:   I seem to get mixed opinions with the Ultrasones as well... My Beyers are 250ohm... I should be covered one would think.   Thanks!    

Palchiu,   Where could I get some cords like this?   I seem to be making this more difficult than it really is... Should be a simple setup to my Marantz or my PC, whichever I prefer!   Thanks again!

Thanks for the quick reply, so.. It is possible.   Any word on whether I should hear improvements with the Matrix/ Marantz combo.. Using the Beyers, as well as a set of Ultrasone PRO-750's?   ... I'm attempting to decide on whether I should just splash for this DAC/AMP or rather look at...

I've been interested in purchasing a Matrix Mini for quite some time, but had a quick question...   Reading through the countless pages regarding this DAC/AMP... I can't quite figure if its possible to pair this with a Marantz-CD5004 or if I'm going to get any significant improvement over...

Bump. Anyone with some experiences with the X1?

Speaking of which... Has anyone seen any reviews regarding the AUNE X1? I see a lot of praise for the older models.. nothing on the newer one as of yet.   Thanks.

It's a possibility.   With that being said though... Maybe I should take the hit.. and go ahead and purchase the new AUNE 24bit-192K X1 DAC/AMP, on top of my purchase of the Marentz CD5004. I should be covered in regards to using the RCA inputs on both the Marentz and AUNE.   Thus  ...

I as well would like a little more feedback from the newest X1. The differences are there...  I'm in agreement regarding the looks. The new X1 looks much better.

That was a concern of mine, and I would punch some numbers.. but currently I'm away from my personal listening area. I imagine my PRO750's would sound Ok sounding, and my Beyer Pro880 (250ohm)...   Is there anyway I'd be able to use my Mamba D4 with the Marantz? I'm obviously new to this...
