Thanks for the straight on answer! Are there any difference between the 250ohm Pro version and the 250ohm Premium consumer 2005 edition, other than looks? The German Maestro 8.35D seems like and interesting competitor after all. What's the deal with that headphone? Sonic character? Pros...

Well, since I have a pair of Beyer DT-770 and are used to how they sound, I’m interested in the new “2005 edition” of the DT-770. Someone said that the 600ohm model is the shiznit, but I think that the resistance is too big for my MacBook and Go-Vibe. That’s why I’m asking about the 250ohm...

Hi Some of you guys still ask if I’ve got an amp and yes, I have a Go-Vibe V5 for portable use, just as my signature says. I'm going to buy myself an external soundcard eventually, but now I’m strictly into getting a pair of headphones. Is there any tonal difference between the 600ohm...

The headphones must work fine straight out of my MacBook Pro and my Go-Vibe V5 (AD8620/8610 op-amps). These two are the weakest sources that the headphones will be used together with. On the other side of the line is an SSL AWS900, but resistance or type of headphone is not a problem in that...

That sounds really good. But will a can with 600 ohm resistance play well straight out of my MacBook? And how about my Go-Vibe V5 (AD8620/8610 op-amps)? /Christopher

Hello Folks I’m on to my second year at the university on which I study “sound and music production”, and I’m in need of some serious full-size cans that I can use while working in school and in the studio. I have an old pair of DT770 that I’ve been using for over four years now, and since...

Hello folks, I searched through my father’s old equipment and found a Technics SL-BD22 that, beside a noisy engine, works perfectly fine. Since I’m new to vinyl playback I don't know if this is a good player? The pickup seems pretty horrific and I wonder if there is any way to upgrade...

Thank you for your input. But wont the ground interfere with the signal-conductors when they lay as close to each other as they do when braided? Anyone else who has got any tips for me? /Chopha

Hello folks, I've bought myself a new stereo (Bowers & Wilkins DM683, Cambridge 740A/740C -combo) and I've decided to make my self a really nice interconnect instead of buying one. I'm going to buy some silver wire 0,5mm (24AWG) from "MrMajestic2" and I need some help with a few questions...

Ok, then braided it is. But I only have 24awg sized wire which is teflon isolated. It cannot be to thick can it? /Chopha

Hi, I’m going to make myself a new set of cables, both to my stereo as well as my portable setup. I have some question though. Let’s say that I’m going to do a pair of interconnects for my stereo; should I or should I no braid the signal and ground conductors together? And if I make a new...

Hi, Thinking of getting a new amp that would work good portable (iPod) as well as with my laptop through USB. Any tips on an amp that would work nice with my DT-770 80ohm (that will eventually become Darth Beyers), and that's not bigger than my Go-Vibe V5? Price: About $300USD Thanks...

Thank you for the answer. Hve you tried one of the other alternatives? If yes, how do the BlackMaxe stand out? /Chopha

Not to seem rude, but you guys has not yet answered my question on which cable to choose. No idea? /Chopha
