Introducing HIFIMAN AUDIVINA--New Closed-Back Planar Headphones!
Briefly had a listen to these this morning at Canjam. TBH it was so noisy in the room that I would have a hard time talking about sonics. I did find them to be extremely comfortable and somewhat more attractive than one might think from the photos. I own Arya Stealths and would be interested in...- hannibal

Pathos Aurium anyone?
I have been running Matsu-shi-tah &DJ8's that I got from Upscale Audio, but just got in a pair of NOS Bugle Boy 6DJ8's. Have not tried them yet. Also have not tried an LPS; The Pathos people did not seem to think it would make much of a difference, but I do have an HDPlex, so if i feel like...- hannibal

Pathos Aurium anyone?
This is quite an old thread now, but I just wanted to pop in again and say that my unit is doing fine, and I love it with my newly-acquired Elears. Will probably sell my Senn HD650's. Still running the NOS Mats-u-Shee-Tah 7Dj8's from Upscale but I may try the telefunkens as someone here...- hannibal

Focal Elear - Impressions Thread
Spent about 2 hrs last night w the Elears. Very happy so far! I do see what people mean about the cable...I am actually a fan of long cables, but yeah, they may actually have gone too far on this one. :) I have an Audio Sensibility OCC Impact SE cable on order, won't arrive for a few days yet...- hannibal

how would a vintage marantz reciever compare to a simlarly price meta42?
Hirsch, Sure, but we are kind of talking apples and oranges, as thus far I have been using the headphone jack of the preamp, which othere here have said is not necessarily so insanely great. I can easily compare this to the headphone jack of my 2275 and report back to the group on the...- hannibal

I own both a 2270 and a 2275.... have _not_ heard a meta42. The old Marantzes are built like absolute tanks, but in terms of sound quality, I really don't think they'll compare to newer high-end gear. (to say that my Sonic Frontiers-Berning gear trounces the Marantz stuff would be quite an...- hannibal

HD600's with Gilmore - good match?
Folks, I won and love HD600's and am considering ordering a Gilmore amp - I'm aware that these cans are a bit hard to drive and wanted to know what I can expect with this combination. I do sometimes listen quite loudly and want to make sure the Gilmore will have enough juice. I have...- hannibal
