Nice Desktop stands (KEF x300a)?
Yep, those are the ones.. though that price seems a bit steep.. I paid just under 30 euros. Had a quick look & found them for 20 aus bucks less.. http://www.videoguys.com.au/Shop/p/25886/auralex-mopad-monitor-isolators-set-isolates-2-speakers-mopad.html?cat=493 & they're selling even...- rabor

Nice Desktop stands (KEF x300a)?
I've got Auralex MoPAD's under my X300A's & couldn't be happier.. They angle perfect from my desk upward with double pads, & the isolation/dampening is excellent, &.. they're cheap. Plus if you were to decide to buy stands later you can always use them between the speaker & stand as desks...- rabor

Computer Speakers for $700-800
I love my X300A's.. I have them on my "game-rig" & they are quite special.. Also slightly over budget at around a 1000,- AUD ( http://www.valuebasket.com.au/en_AU/KEF-X300A-Digital-Hi-Fi-Speaker-System/mainproduct/view/12741-AA-NA?AF=SB ), but worth a listen for sure.- rabor

Computer Speakers for $700-800
I'd suggest to check your local stores & have a listen to as many as you can find around your budget.. Brisbane Sound Group for example sells the Adam A3X & A5X, & the Event 20/20 Bas V3 which would all be on the top of my list. Though the A5X might be a tad over your budget, they are excellent...- rabor

Looking around for speakers <700$ for PC usage.
They have a PCM1754 DAC in each speaker & a WM8782 ADC in the left speaker for the Line-in (mini-jack).- rabor

Review: Philips Fidelio L1 [Updated 5/14]
Cheers, and a 'hmm'... I thought (or hoped) proper amplification would release the Kraken somewhat better than you describe. Guess I won't be jumping in blind either.. Quote:- rabor

Furutech ADL GT40
It's behavior is erratic to say the least; sometimes there's just a some mild static noise, beeps & clicks but that can be solved quite easily by unplugging it from power & USB (a couple of times), but sometimes there's real hard static noise, like a tube radio not tuned to a station with loud...- rabor

Furutech ADL GT40
I had mine for a little while now & I love it - or should I say loved it.. because my GT40 started to demonstrate (with) a lot of static build-up, jitter & other beeps & cold war noises, so it's going back tomorrow for a swap. However, before it's breakdown it did what it was supposed to...- rabor

The ATH-AD900 Thread
I got my AD900's for nearly 3 years now & I've been using the W5000 (black leather) pads for the last 1½ year, & these pads DO make the image somewhat darker, but imo not in a negative way at all. The W5000 pads are slightly wider inwards than the stock ones, so they cover up the drivers a...- rabor

Looking for professor Audio Technica..
Dear sir , I'm looking for leather (or non-velours) earpads that will fit on the AD900's & which are a tad 'thinner' than the stock velours ones (thinner, so that the drivers are closer to the ears), do these exist? & what kind of material are the pads of the ATH-W11JPN? Are those suede? Ty.- rabor

real ath ad900?
I don't think there are fake AD900's, only fake sellers, & I think that's not the case here either.. I recently got my dad a new pair of AD900's from the UK for approx 18 UK Pounds more - that's incl S&H -, so from the land of origin price to me seems very possible. So i'd say go for it...- rabor
