BTW, I'm selling my headphone collection Kijiji Quebec ad number 587227083 and 591578224 cheers,

It makes a difference, but sometimes it's what you want. My K701 sounds great out of my NAD 220 ohms output jack, while it sounds too lean out of my 0.05 ohms headphone amp.

Let's begin by counting people. Then, if we wait a couple of months, I'm pretty sure some Montrealers will join us for the meet...

Congrats to the Montreal meet !   While it's hot, who would be interested by a meet in Quebec City ? I wonder how many headfiers rest in the area...

Bien sûr ! Roswell en banlieu de la vieille capitale...   Ready for a meet ? http://www.head-fi.org/t/624512/quebec-city-meet#post_8644856

Does it sound good with your speakers?

You'd probably get something good out of the stereo amplifier, granted it's of reasonable quality.

I don't possess these speakers, but the problem I have driving the DT990-600 is not related to volume (loudness), but to clipping. It's loud enough with anything I try them with, but there's clipping with many devices. Sometime it's like a fuzz, sometime you have to pay attention to notice. When...

I can't comment on Grado. I like my DT990s with many kind of music, except classical. I prefer truly opened headphones like the DT990 over half opened like the DT880. You can always equalize the DT990 to get FR you prefer...

Here's the four options I know, if you want to drive your phones with a receiver/integrated amplifier :   1. Directly from the headphone jack, that may powered by a) an opamp, or b) the speaker amp through resistors.   2. From the headphone jack, but through an impedance adapter (when...

Full HDCP support means it should not work. I'd look for another HDMI converter, but who knows, it may do trick anyway...   Tell us if you go for it,   Edit : Oops, old thread...

For those of you who want to know how it looks on my D2000,   here's some pictures

Yes, an adapter to try it. If you like it, you may prefer a swith box or a second 1/4 male adaptor for the main in.   I've tried it because other guys reported good sound this way. If you believe the ouptput impedance is a significant factor, you may want to check the oi of your preamp...

Regarding the HK3490, you can try driving your Denon directly from the preamp out. I've done that with my NAD and it sounds good !
