Hahaha

Are there any downsides or caveats I should be aware of before deciding to purchase the parts to build AGDR's desktop o2 amp? I am mostly interested in the fact it's an original o2 but with the connections on the back panel. I'd also enjoy the benefits he's introduced but am weary of any issues...

I'd also be interested to know your findings. I've been contemplating picking up some Annie or K701 pads but don't know if it's worth it.

Just wondering but from an electronics standpoint I guess it's ok to substitute the 35V 330uf with the 25V 470uf?   Edit: Doesn't really matter anymore. I broke the 25V caps I put in and ordered 35V ones to replace them. :o

After recent comments I was excited to perform the bass port mod on my K7xx... I was able to pop the grills off and immediately noticed the foam. I thought about removing it to see what it sounded like but didn't want to do two mods at once. It sucks but removing the sticker does render them...

Thanks for those links, I've never heard of these players. I never thought to use more sophisticated software for playback. Foobar does give quite a bit of customization freedom as well as aesthetic control. I have to say though, using the WASAPI plugin I've been quite happy with it's playback...

I've been trying to locate replica ear cushions and it's difficult to find ones that are modeled specifically to be Anniversary edition replacements

Very nice!

I wonder if the newer releases are the same design, have any upgrades, or any parts having become discontinued and changed since nearly 5 years ago when the quality of that amp made it became so popular.

Yeah, I believe it sounds fine but I've heard that giving the K7xx more juice than what the T1 can provide brings out an even better sound.

This has been asked a million times already but I still don't know for sure. I have an Aune T1... what's the best amp to compliment that DAC for these headphones?

Thanks!

Looks like I'll be visiting DigiKey :o   Did you guys get all Panasonics or some combination?

Man the prices on eBay are outrageous. Does anyone have any spare tubes they'd like to get rid of?

Thanks for the response. I agree the 16 gain setting has been the best sounding. I hear the AKG's require a bit of power to perform well and since I'm only using the T1's amp at the time I'll keep it at 16.
