Link for photos and process: http://imgur.com/gallery/BYN1J     I found some badly damaged vintage AKG K340 Electrostat-Dynamic headphones on Kajiji for $30. It is a rare model with a unique technology combination that never took off. In addition to a standard driver for the mid and low end...

Which product(s) you would like to review:   E5 Portable Headphone Amplifier (Only this since I have been passionate about the idea of this product since I heard about it). I almost lost it when I heard Sound Blaster was releasing a portable Bluetooth amp with the power to drive 600 ohm...

Ha, that gentleman is me.  Thanks for the compliment :) It took me about 10 minutes the first time I tried these on just to figure out how to wear them.  They are actually really comfortable because they don't touch the top of my ear at all.

Where can I find a clear list of all current and, noteworthy headphones over $1000 including recently released pairs? 

This is a unique 1981 vintage can by Pioneer.  They are worn under the chin and have a glasses like plastic arm that holds them over the ears.  They are for sale for the right price BTW.   http://imgur.com/a/2oBF0

  It is so hard to find information on STAX.  Can I just confirm that this means buying the solid state amp that would usually be part of the 2170 system with the headphones that are one step higher and usually with the 3170 system package?  Can this amp drive them to their full potential?   I...

Great, looks like you are right either 0db or 10db.  I'll try 0db for a bit and see how it sounds.  Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the warm welcome.  It's a great community.

That's great, Thanks for the info.  I may look into this.

Thanks, just curious how the little Dot 1+ drives the HD600's.  I was looking at it for the 650's but was told the power might not be enough.  Still considering it however as I think it could be good intro to tubes.

I just picked up a Matrix M-Stage for use primarily with some HD650's.  Any thoughts on the ideal 'gain' to set it at?  I can hear a difference from listening straight out of the Fiiio E18 DAC.  The sound is less congested and the veil lifts a little.  However I am getting some slightly boomy...

Hi, my name is Niall.  I've lurked here for about year but would like to get more involved in the community.  I have a small collection of mid-range headphones and antiques including:   Pioneer SE-L25 (brilliant and unique under chin vintage design but poor sound) 4AA (an old standard but not...

I recently grabbed these headphones from Kajiji.  Does anyone have information, or impressions of these headphones.  There is very little online.  I'm curious about what they cost new, what era they are and what their current approximate value is.   I am running them from a serviced Marantz...
