lol I was late ... I believe K601 does need an amp, so you guys planning to use it with DAPs, it might not work... And in case it doesn't, I'm ready to pick up yours... :very_evil: And thank you, OP, for such a chance

I think if you wanna go portable, then a PK1 might be more suitable than a HD600. I tried both of them on my Move, and the bass of the PK1 is nearly as deep as the HD600 (but not as rounded, though only a tiny bit less). But its size is considerably smaller

all the best to the staffs... such lovely amps

Congratz!! I liked my 225 too, it's detail-ness was very nice.

"Hearing is believing" should be true in this case, I guess

wow, so fast... Thank you all guys! Anyone else have an advice for me?

hey guys After reading lots and lots of thread on the effect of cable upgrading, I think I might start off with an IC upgrade! Yay!!! So, could anybody give me an appropriate one to try? My budget is ~ $30 (that's why I used "entry level" ), and I don't mind a 2ndhand one. All...

Waiting waiting... The Diablo looks sexy...

Firstly, what's your taste of music?

K701 is wonderful for classical...

I bought mine used, serial 3243

1 word: WOW jeez this one looks soooo beautiful... Do you have any ideas how much this baby will cost? (Look at wallet, sigh...)

yeah, 1 vote for MS1, HD555 lacks the details...

I have received mine, and after listening to it carefully, I notice that the bass is kinda weak, right? I mean, bass is there but the "quatity" is not much in compared with other AT cans, for example AD900. Is it because that I don't use an amp? I thought the pair is only 42 ohm, which should...

head-fi is , IMO, a nice site with lots and lots of friendly people, so I think perhaps you should stay away for a short period, then register a new ID and start anew. That's what my head told me, not my wallet :P

wah, you made me feel anxious for that already... Gotta try it one day... Anybody want to let theirs go?

Hi all I just got my SR225 a few days ago (I am the 3rd user, so it should be burnt in already), and after trying with some of my favorite songs, my first impressions were: With guitar - classical pieces: SR225 is sooooo detailed, I could hear very clearly the special sound of the guitar...
