Hi guys. Would like to host a mini meet at my house Saturday Sept. 12 at 2PM. Have a few setups (Orpheus system, OO7-KGSS, K1000, 650,etc) but could use another source or two, extra interconnects and extensions or whatever else you might see fit to bring. In Roslyn Heights right off the...

I have been dancing with other partners and have been entranced by their charms. Ms 007, Ms K1000, and Ms 650 lovely, just lovely. But this morning I realized I had ignored you and taken you for granted. I now admit you are the only girl for me and none other will do. Your charms include...

I had a chance to listen to Headamps Gilmore design BHSE at the New York meet a few days ago. Bravo to Dr. Gilmore and Justin. This amp energized O2's like gunpowder energizes a shotgun. To my ears the Stax phones were electrifying and opened up totally. If you are looking for lush and pretty...

Feet up on the couch, new CD spinning and the Staxs up high. My son comes running in and plants a big kiss and hug on me Pure bliss Happy fathers day to you all Dan

If you can just give me a simple list and the bottom line. thanks, dan

Clarity, precision, speed, resolution and truth of timbre are the goals? I want the truth. The whole truth. Nothing but the truth........

These guys build really wonderful amps. The quality and detail displayed on their amps at the NY meet is top tier. Their personal touch and demeanor is top tier. Their varied line up is top tier. Their sound quality is top tier. They seem to stand behind their products as well as our...

I am looking for your thoughts on the finest phones that can be run balanced along with the balanced amp that you would rate as king of the hill.... an unbeatable dynamic combo.

A. Krause....... Forget about it J. Hooker....... Greatest Hits Heart ........... Dreamboat Anne B. Dylan....... Blonde on Blonde J. Mitchel....... Blue Eagles ........ oops...more than 5 Dan

If I can boil it all down after thousands of hours and many setups, assuming the system and source are optimized... If it sounds great immediately........It really is not top tier If it sounds poor immediately.........It really is poor If it sounds nice immediately..........Only long term...

1. Does the system have that "breath of life quality"? 2. Does the system allow "total immersion" in the music? The bottom line for me.

The wire used is so important to the overall sound quality we are able to to enjoy. For me I would have to say the Sennheiser Flat and Stax Flat ribbon cables on their top models are a very, very close call. Amazing speed and coherence, rich and extended yet not to microphonic. Best...

Just got Yikes pair with the Siltech. Running with a Jadis Defy 7 mk3....Extrodinary. The walls are not even in the equation. What an expansive soundstage. They sound exquisite......whoaaaaa Dan PS...the dog will have to walk himself, I can not take these speakers off my head.

Pretty quiet from this new group of Orpheus owners. Maybe you are all just to busy enjoying music, or you just do not like them. Could it be you have them but have not tried them yet! Come out, come out, wherever you are.

I have had the pleasure to own and listen to many fine pieces of equipment over the years and the joy and relaxation they have afforded has been much appreciated. The last few days I have been glued to an Orpheus headphone system and find it totally satisfying. Besides its uber resolution and...

Most comfortable please, and why? thanks

I have spent the last hour enjoying the music. Let me rephrase that, I have spent the last hour being one with the music. My new He-90s are attatched to a blackgated KGSS with HE90 connecter directly on the amp. NO PROBLEM HERE. Damn, this is more than I hoped it would be. So relaxing and...

Is it possible? What would one need to give it a go..... Assume two individual amps are available. Thanks Dan

I enjoy the Stax Omega and KGSS synergy, but figured I would have a little fun today. Scrounged around and found my old stax SRD7 which feeds the Stax headphones it's 580 volt bias but needs to be feed from a seperate amp for wattage. Hooked it up to a Jadis Defy 7 Mk3 and let the combo cook for...

I was in a room today that had 3 Stax Omegas, also Lamdas, and other Stax phones. This room also held 3 Sennheiser Orpheus HE90s, also Sennheiser HE60s with all the matching amps, both tube and solid state. I had a fun day. Can make you cry.....

Quick thanks to Tom for hosting. Tom sorta had an off day, he only brought $50,000 worth of toys to the hall! I know he has more........... Ray, Tyll and Mikhail thank you for coming and loved Rays Stealth, Mikhail's sureal monster do it all secret and Tyll's balanced big boy amps were cookin...

I have tried singlepower, earmax, corda, grado, gilmore designs, .etc, etc with my Senn 650s. They sound "nice". I like many of the amps with the Senns, but only one is pure magic. No, unreal perfect synergy, unbelievable earth shattering bass, total musical emersion. The bass is down to the...

Been enjoying an Omega/KGSS setup for a while and have come across a few tweaks and setup options that have been noticeable improvments IMHO. The Omegas sound best when placed as far foward and low down on my head/ears as posible. By placing them with the pads actually touching and slightly...
