Any other thoughts on the Wells Audio and Abyss Phi combination. This seemed like the best of show to me.

I have owned many Hi Fi Man headphones and currently own the HE1000v2. I cannot say that I deserve to win the Susvara Headphones over others who have posted on this forum. Having said that, I do hope and pray that I get lucky. If I win, I promise the Susvaras will be loved.

I guess I must be a contrarian an but I really like the Manley Neo Classic 300b Amp with both the Audeze LCD3 and Senheiser HD 800s.  IMO with Sofia Royal Princess 300b tubes, the Manley slightly betters Cavalli Liquid Gold, and Woo WA 5 LE. I have listened to all three of these amps with the...

pick - got it.  thanks.

Thanks for your comment.  What do you mean by "pick"?  Fray?

Fatastic review.  IMO the best reviews are the ones where headphones and amps are compared side by side.  From this perspective this review is epic.  Seems like the Manley 300b amp is preferred slightly over the Woo WA5 when using hte HD 800s.  Does nay one else have this preference of the...

Any update here?  I want to upgrade the headphone calb eon HD800 but I dont want to spend the $ if I won't hear a difference.  Any thoughts?  Cardas vs. Moon Silver vs A pure sound?

Quick question, Has anyone noticed a substantial sound difference between a stock Woo WA5 and one with the premium parts upgrad eand teflon tube circuits upgrade.  I am trying to figure out if it is worth the extra money. 

While I recognize the possibility of the plecebo effect, is anyone aware of a review or comment where the reference grade upgrade cables for the HD 800 have been compared?  I am thinking a comparison between Cardas, Alo, A Pure Sound, Moon and Cable Pro.  I would think it would be soo easy to do...

After reading these posts I am still perplexed why more people have not purchased the Manley 300b verses other reference grade headphone amps.  There is pleanty to read about the Woo WA5 but not much to read about the Manely.  Some have said that the Manley actually goes better with the HD 800s...

Anyone have any suggestions for a good balanced interconnect that would work well with a WA22?  My budget is around $1000 list for a 1 meter pair which I will probably try to find used for $400-$600.

So I get it, some people prefer the golden reference to the clear light interconnects and vice versa.  Does anyone have an idea on the consensus?  In other words, while personal preference may vary, in total does it appear the more people like the Cardas Clear Light interconnects to the Cardas...

Agreed.  Seems like we will just have to wait and see. 

My primary use is a dell laptop but I will also use it with an iphone.  I know I probably will only be able to use the amps of these devices and not the DACvs when connected to the iphone. 

I am looking for the best portable amp/DAC combo and have narrowed it down to the ALO International and the Ray Samuels Intruder.    I think I will use Beyerdynamic t5p with the new protable amp dac.    Does anyone have any experience comparing the two?    Are there any other top of the...
