    New Beyer DT1350

    I just got my DT1350s from Amazon ($279 new with Prime!). Just put them on and I already love them more than my V-moda M80s, which will be going back to Amazon this weekend.   Case M80 - There's no question that the semi-rigid zippered exoskeleton case is bad@$$, but detaching the cable is...

    Denon AH-D1100 Alternatives

    Forgot to mention, I need LIGHT headphones! I use these to study (and I do lots of that in grad school). Flexing my neck with heavy headphones KILLS me (and I dislike IEMs).

    Denon AH-D1100 Alternatives

    Bought these last year from B&H for $110 when I found a 50% coupon. Love the weight, comfort, and sound. Hate the build quality. I'd never pay full price for these things.   That said, what's a good alternative to these as mine just cracked. I used these primarily for electronic and hip-hop...

    Beyerdynamic Custom Ones! New Beyer headphones!

    Mine just came in from Amazon today. $189 w/ next day shipping.   I currently own dt770pro, dt880/600, denon ah-d1100, and ath-m50.   Initial impressions? Very cool. Light weight. Easily driven by iPods/iPhones. Excellent for bass heads. Not much of a review, I know. But I've only been...

    Need a DAC, tube amp, and speakers for iphone/macbook under $1000

    I'm currently using a Maverick D1 (DAC) --> Woo Audio WA6 (pre-amp, this option can be added by Jack for an extra fee...just e-mail him) --> Swan M10...or hopefully some Audioengine A5's soon! patiently waiting for your reply PM ;)   This goes a bit over the $1k budget, though.

    Denon AH-D1100 Price

    Yes, they were definitely $120 shipped @ BH. Now I'm very angry with myself for not getting them!!

    Denon AH-D1100 Price

    Am I crazy, or did the price increase recently? I swear they were $120 at BH a month ago, and now they're $200?

    How long is the WAIT on a WOO?

    ...why don't you e-mail Jack at Woo Audio himself? He would know better than any of us. FWIW, I ordered my WA6 on October 19 and it shipped on October 22.

    Maverick Audio DAC/Amp

    I've been enjoying my D1 for a couple weeks now. Even more so now that I've paired it with a WA6. The combination of the two drive my dt880/600 and dt990/600 very well.

    Beyerdynamic DT-880 600Ohms version Please help!!!

    I have the 880/600 and they are my favorite cans. But if you were looking for bass, you probably should have gone with 990s. The 880s are balanced and neutral to my ears. I have the whole trifecta (770, 880, 990). The 770 and 990 are by far more bassy. I enjoy the 880 with rock, country, pop...

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

    And Jack honors the one year warranty on the EML 5U4G?   He told me the extended warranty (1 year) on the Sophia would be an extra $50.   Either way, I don't think I'll be tube rolling any time soon...unless I somehow come across $280. I have my eyes on a new camera.

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

    Jack told me 4 weeks for the EML 5U4G and/or EML 274B this morning via e-mail. Price is $50 more than other sites. I guess the question for me is, is $50 worth the peace of mind? I know I can buy from Jack with confidence. But if I can save $50 and tubeusa.com is just as reliable...

    Beyer DT 770 Pro or Beyer DT 990 Pro ?

    i have the 770pro, 880/600, and 990/600. in my order of preference, 880/600, 990/600, 770pro.   the 880 is out of the question for you, though. it's a very well balanced and neutral set of phones. i really enjoy the 990 with house music. all else, i prefer the 880. i only use the 770 when i...
