You need to start using lossless source material on your ipod -- you are welcome.

add in an upgrade cable for the hd650/k1000/omega 2/he60 and that is the flattest bass responses i can think of...

yes, they are -- get a portable amplifier and P -> S adapter and give it time. /thread

Haha, that sounds like a sexual innuendo -- are you being serious?

How much is the HEV70 worth in today's market?

Can any person post the link to the page on the Headphile website that describes the sonic qualities of the woods that are used? I cannot find it and it is frustrating me.

In my opinion, the ER-4S, K501, O2 and HD650 with the right upgrade cable.

Etymotic ER-6i (not a double post, i am just re-posting for emphasis)

Is there an he60 smiley face? :-)

It has been confirmed, this amplifier will be paired with a wooded HE-60 and a custom Stax cable...!

well, now i just need to find a used one being sold...

pink floyd's dark side of the moon, miles davis' kind of blue, and holst's the planets (naxos) are, in my opinion, more superior as sacd's than cd's. there are others, by those are the ones that you hear about the most.

westy 12 and rochy 10

i have already established that i really cannot spend more on an amplifier than what i spent on my source. ($2500) So, unless my mathematics are incorrect, then that competitively excludes the Singlepower ES-1. (>$2500) I am only able to afford the Blue Hawaii in its standard configuration.

So, basically there is no electrostatic amplifier worthy of driving either of these two headphones? How will I listen to them?

ER-4P owner, with P to S adapter cable -- I am still on my first pair from 2003.
