Yuin Pk2
I have PK1's and a G4 iPod. You won't be disappointed with your combination! The PK1's are amazing with an amp and the PK2's are supposed to be great without the amp. I got mine from Headroom along with a lot of other stuff. They have always been very reliable and helpful.- 6seal

Got the HD595, Is it 50 ohm version?
The easiest way to measure is with a volt/ohm meter. If you have one just measure ohms of resistance at the plug. the value will either be very close to 50 ohms or very close to 120 ohms. I've got an older pair of 595's and they measure 120 ohms as expected.- 6seal

HD595 120 Ohm vs 120 Ohm: Whats the difference?

Fav Album from "Everything But The Girl"?
My favorite is "Home Movies" which is a 'best of' that wasn't released in the US. It had one new song on it: "I didn't know I was looking for love". Took me years to find that song and that album. -

Yes, it's kind of painful just turning the crossfeed off now. Apparently most get along just fine without it though. Hmmm.- 6seal

Eliminating ground loop hum w. Headroom Cosmic amp
I have the Cosmic and and Basestation 1 power supply. I also was getting some hum at home but traced it to a halogen lamp near by. Shutting THAT off took care of the hum. Since then I got a filter for the power line to the Basestation and all seems good. No more hum. I would think that at...- 6seal

audio technica vs. grado
I've owned SR60's and do own SR225's. The bowls sound great to me. I bought flats from TTVJ and, though I love his site and service I hated the flats. The highs (and much of the mids) just disappeared! Bass got a lot better but it's not worth it to me. So, if I get a vote, don't bother with...- 6seal

Looking for USB amp for Grado SR-60
I've owned the bithead & SR60's (since upgraded) and liked them a lot out of my laptop. I haven't heard any meier amps so I can't compare other than to say the bithead is quite a bit cheaper than the Porta Corda III USB. I have to admit I'm partial to Headroom amps...- 6seal
