EMP enough juice for the K340?
I guess I was spoiled and didn't know it when I owned probably the ultimate combo: a Wheatfield HA-2 to power my K340s. That was then ... Looking for a new headphone amp now because my new preamp has no headphone jack. Would the Earxmax Pro have enough juice to power my AKG K340s properly...- Number9

Grado cartridges ... should I?
So my interest is in Grado cartridges at the moment ... seems there are many fans out there, especially for their great midrange (which to me is what I like most about vinyl). I'm currently using a Goldring 1042 in a nice medium-mass 10" arm with double-knife edge bearing (no damping). But...- Number9

Vintage turntables vs. New Generation - Good value?
I see a lot of vintage turntables floating around for sale here, there and everywhere. Garrard 301s, Thorens TD124, TD125, Linn LP12s, Technics SP10s, etc... How well do these stack up, given what they are selling for in the used market, to newer generation turntables? Anyone?- Number9

K1000 - It's the cable (stupid)!
I'd like to chirp in and add another voice to all of those who have evangelized here long, long before me, and say: that when it comes to listening to the AKG K1000's at their best - change the stock cable!. Don't wait. Run. I really got to like my K1000s over the past several months, but I...- Number9

These Ergo AMT headphones (which use the innovative Heil AMT driver) were listed as being on the truck for the Headroom World of Headphones tour in 2002. Did anyone get a chance to listen to these? Seems that very little is known about them.- Number9

BeyerDT931 + Equinox Impressions
I've made a recent discovery that may be good news for DT931 owners and/or those considering the 931s. I've been using the 931s for a couple of years now. I chose them for what they do well - nice clear sound - top to bottom. I had tried the Senheiser HD580 and Grado 325, and I preferred the...- Number9

Earmax casing?
Question for the Earmax and Pro owners out there. What is your casing made of? I've been told that the Earmax has now gone to using a cheapo looking plastic case that does not do justice to it. Does anyone have one with the plastic case. What do you think of it? Thanks- Number9
