My fairly new DX3 Pro+ is suddenly pushing out a distorted signal. Very disappointing. Unplugging the unit restores the sound but only temporary. Distorts on both optical and BT. Could it be the power supply? Or maybe a system re-set is in order? Jumped on this thread in a search. Thanks!

I was going to sell my GR1's because they are too bass heavy. But when I applied some EQ, they turned into awesome headphones. I have a nice preset in JRiver for them now and same with portable Media Monkey. Glad I didn't sell them. They are beautiful and easy to drive with portable as well.

Great buyer @osanchez4808 . Quick payment and happy result. Thanks Oscar!

Sold.

Last and final price drop. What a deal!!!!

Topping L50 headphone amplifier excellent condition like new with original packaging. 4 months old. Up to 3.5wpc output. SE and XLR headphones. Balanced 1/4 inch and RCA inputs. Passthrough outputs (no preamp function). -14, 0, +14db gain settings. Will drive difficult headphone loads easily...

MP has the LS in stock again at the full $129 price just FYI. It's strange how they could go all the way down to $62 at one point and then back to $129. But they're available and $129 still isn't a bad value for a solid HPA.

I bought a couple of these cables for Momentums. They seem pretty high quality. Connectors are nice and there's some extra insulation on the jacket. But they're not too stiff and tangly.

That's good to know. Seen differing opinions on Elegia. They sure are discounted a bunch right now. I have a new Topping L50 amp. Should drive either fine. I notice you have the Listen Pro as your avatar!

That's good to hear about these. Thank you! I really don't want a v shaped sounding/bass heavy set like the Meze 99's. And I read the Elegia has a funky FR too, even though they seem like a great deal right now. I do have the JDS Labs EQ. Sounds like the Pro version is worth the extra $50 plus...

Thanks for the feedback and answer! I see these are in your list of former headphones. I'm assuming the cushions are replaceable with others on both versions. Also, the Red/Pro version comes with an 2nd longer cable. Doesn't look like they can be used with a balanced/xlr connection?

I'm thinking about a pair of Focal Listen headphones(Wired). I discovered two different versions though> 1.) Black ear cushions/silver earcups (Yes this is a wired model not the wireless) 2.) Red ear cushions/trim, black earcups most often shown. Are these actually two different models? Thanks...

350 ohm impedance might not work so great with the Laptop in the picture? $299.00.

Focal Listen's just came on my radar too. They seem to get better reviews than the more expensive Elegia. Neutral sound with good isolation and comfort for a big head like mine. Looks like a great package. I've got so many models of cans I'm considering it's getting ridiculous. These are on the...

Broken record but LS's are gone again at MP. ETA late June. Amazon raised the price again too with a May delivery.

Maybe they "found" some more of them like the SAE1000e cartridge NOS that pops up magically! It still says limit of 20, which to me is simply an invitation for ebay sellers to snap them up for when they can mark them up. Still, very strange they sent me that email just days before.

"First of all, thank you for choosing Monoprice.com! Unfortunately, we no longer carry the following item: Monolith by Monoprice Liquid Spark Headphone Amplifier by Alex Cavalli (PID: 33304) At this time, we do not carry a suitable substitution item. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this...

Got an email from Monoprice that the LS is gone for good. Amazon seems to have a few at full MSRP $129 last time I checked.

After the discounting all the way down to $62 they are out of stock at Monoprice and back up to $89. Still a great deal I guess and I guess they will get more of them?

Interesting that he's not a Sennheiser fan. Sounds like it has just enough power to drive them I guess. Do headphone amps start clipping near the top of their volume control (generally speaking)?

Thanks for the reco! Those might be a good match for the Topping L50 amp I just got.

Heavy is ok if they are comfortable. I'm a 7 3/4 head size. Thanks.

That's good to know about the L300. I actually love the sound of the SR5's but I'm in the market for new cans. My one complaint about the SR5's has always been the lack of much useful deep bass. But I wouldn't trade the clarity and speed they have for that. Adding L300s on the cheap would be fun...

Right. It just has the one 6 pin output and the earspeaker/loudspeaker switch. I also have the SRD4 energizer, which is 5 pin and doesn't need to be plugged in. The SRD7 looks like 6 pins also. It powers some of the new models? Thanks!

Hi folks, I seem to have found a general/recent Stax thread here. My very simple question is can the vintage SRD6 energizer (plugged into an amplifier of course) power any of the modern Stax headphones(L300)? It is the 6 pin unit but it does power my 5 pin SR34 electret headset I've already...
