    McIntosh flagship SACD/CD/Headphone amp player

    AKG701's with Black Dragon: Well worth it!

    Last week I had an unfortunate and stupid accident on my part happen that damaged the stock cable on my AKG 701's. I had been fooling with the idea at some point of maybe splurging and sending the 701's off to Drew at Moon Audio for a Black Dragon upgrade someday but I wasn't in a hurry to...

    Trying to add a little warmth to 701's...

    Howdy all. I am still loving my AKG 701's and pairing them with the Headamp GS-X has been an unbelievable experience. (Justin rocks!) Now that I've spent an appreciable amount of time with this setup, I think I'm finding myself looking for way to interject a little bit more warmth into...

    What do you say to the skeptics?

    I'm sure plenty of you have been in this boat: Explaining to family members what a headphone amplifier even is and why you need/want one, especially when they see you already own fairly nice gear, like I do. What say you?

    Courtesy of Meier Audio's headphone amplifier page: Quote: Sure, you don't need a headphone amplifier to listen to your headphones. Just plug them in the headphone jack of a CD-player or integrated amplifier and you will be able to enjoy your music. Unfortunately though the headphone...

    What's next for Sennheiser?

    DISCLAIMER: I know there's always something better that comes around the corner and you can always be "chasing the rainbow." That being said: While I'm going into my third or fourth week of waiting on my AKG 701 preorder, I had something come up in the back of my mind. The most...
