2007+ Desktop Portable - Anyone care to report?

Audio-Technica Announces A1000X and A2000X

ATH-A1000X and A2000X?
Do you have plans to offer the latest Audio Technica models when they come out in December? (Specifically the A2000X.) I have read a little about the A2000X, and I hope it will be available for sale in North America. Thanks,- drummerboy47

How did you turn into an Audiophile?
Probably when I was 8 or 9 and got my first boombox - which, of course, I called a ghettoblaster. It was pathetically small (some Citizen model), and at the time sounded best to me with the tone cranked all the way to "high." OK, so I'm dating myself. A year or so later I also discovered that...- drummerboy47

Is your Headphone setup more expensive than your Speaker?

PS3 + Blu-Ray + Desktop Portable = Uncompressed Sound!
I'm very pleased to discover that I can listen to uncompressed stereo (2.0) sound using my PS3, a Blu-Ray with uncompressed/DTS-MA/TruHD audio, and a 2007 Desktop Portable amp. I found this out when I brought my PS3 upstairs to my bedroom to watch a movie. (I just had my wisdom teeth out, and...- drummerboy47

NEW iPOD 7G COMING SOON...
Three cheers for digital out! One can only hope. I'm under the impression that current iPods are capable of this, but there are only a handful of devices (the Wadia, and that other really expensive one I forget the name of) that take advantage of it. Where is the portable solution? A dock...- drummerboy47

iPhone 3G revealed: "Improved Audio...flush headphone jack...$199 for 8GB"
A few thoughts and comparisons: Comparing my iPhone 3G's headphone jack to line out: The line out sounds noticeably better. It sounds fuller, with more extended, accurate treble. There could be more; this is simply a first impression of a quick A/B. I used Apple's 3G Dock and a cheap mini...- drummerboy47

Marantz CD5001 Giveaway - And the Winner is?
I want a free CDP! I would make SUCH good use of this CDP!!! It would PERFECTLY match my Marantz SR7002! Not to mention it would replace my obsolete and dying Sony CDP-195, and the Panasonic DVD player I currently use for CD's. I have a 2007 HeadRoom Desktop Portable Amp and a pair of...- drummerboy47

Should I get SE530s?
All good replies so far! Keep in mind that their treble response isn't ideal. It's rolled off after 16kHz (balanced armature characteristic). They also suffer from a huge dip in the frequency response curve around 12-13kHz (check out HeadRoom's website). This last point is personally my...- drummerboy47
