Selling my Sennheiser HD 800S headphones with box, cable, and XLR cable. These are the Made in Germany version, not the Ireland versions like these days. I believe it was purchased in 2019, and they have been used since then. Pads are fine and can be used, but could also benefit from new pads...

I love how thoughtful you are about this! Definitely can answer a lot of those questions: Yea it is the 8126, which I've found to really be the best ink I've ever used after testing all the G2s, various Monteverde, Montblanc, etc. refills. Definitely coating the brass. We did one coat before...

Just wanted to let my fellow head-fiers know that I finally launched a pen that I've been working on creating for the past year. A side project that I hope you guys would enjoy :) http://kck.st/2HRTrdZ

Realized I never followed up with this thread! Just wanted to let ANYONE who might be interested know that I launched today: http://kck.st/2HRTrdZ

Holy moly, I had no idea of that thread lol

Fellow audiophiles, I have this theory that people actually would enjoy owning a beautiful, high quality, premium pen that writes super well, has wonderful balance, a nice heft, and can last a long time... but there's really not been a pen that has come across their way that has those...

I had that too with the screw. You have to do about 5-10 minutes of surgery.    Take off the pads, unscrew the driver, then just tighten the screw underneath that metal thing. It'll come right back in, and you're good to go. It was easy enough for me. You just need a very small screwdriver.

Truth is that I've been downgrading my setup to simplify, but am left now with just an Apogee Duet 2 headphone out to run a pair of headphones.   I still do want to maximize what headphone I use with this source/amp, but am wondering if I feel like I'll miss out too much by getting a headphone...

I'm curious to hear your guys' opinions on what you guys would consider "the best" headphone you would own if you did not own an amp (or could not get one).    I'll start. I'm starting to think perhaps a high end Grado (PS500, RS1, PS1000) might be the best option?

Today we had yet another awesome head fi meet in the Bay Area. Great to see some familiar faces, and a big thanks to purrin for setting it all up! 2 years ago I started the impressions thread, so I thought I'd continue the tradition this time around as well. Will post my impressions soon, but...

Quote: Oh absolutely! Excited to do this, I have a lot of new gear to listen to. Believe it or not, still haven't heard the 009s.

Frankly, been a little out of the game for a while... but I'd love to attend. Would be great to see you guys again!   I can bring the following: Sennheiser HD800 / Meier Audio StageDAC / Headamp GS-1   Cheers, Mark
