Quote: LCD3.. 

Nelson, you said you have the hifiman hm801, how does the ED8 and hm801 combo sound? And I've heard people saying ED8 needs hundreds hours to burn in, is that right?   Quote:  

I'll say good choice:) But I won't expect DAC1 will feed HE6 well. dac1 is a great dac/amp, but HE6 is hungry for power. Get a Schiit Lyr and you won't regret.    haha, attending meets like this will make your wallet thinner..   Quote:  

I have a suggestion about the amp for LCD3, which you will notice the improvement for sure: RSA DarkStar. This amp is designed for the othordynamic headphones, last year people in canjam heard this rig and everyone was amazed by it.    for the 007 and 009, and think if you got enough money...

I think the LCD3s might have too much bass which may make you feel the treble and mid are laid back. But these are still great headphones, if I were you, my next step is to get a better amp. The LCD3s are easier to drive than the HE6s, but if you wanna get a 100% LCD3, I think you will have to...

I have started a new thread for the meet impression.   http://www.head-fi.org/t/593047/dc-nova-md-meet-impression-thread#post_8098748

Just got home, and thinking of starting a thread to talk about today's meet.   First of all, I'll I had a really great time with you guys. There weren't too many people(I've been to some meets with too many people in a small room, which you can't really hear the music..), and everyone was so...

Quote: Of course. But I don't think you need to put labels on your stuff since there won't be many people..

Can't wait to see you guys tomorrow.   I will bring most of the Hifiman(Head-direct) headphone products, including: HE6, HE500, HE400. New Hifiman Headphone amplifier: EF6. Meridian G08.2 CD player.    

Quote:   definitely

if you got enough money, go with lcd3. otherwise he500, no headphones can compete with the he500 at this price range.   

Quote: I think hifiman will have a special sale/auction

I think the Stax headphones will still be made in Japan... OR with the cheaper labor in China, we might have cheaper stax headphones. :)
