I Finally Found the Jecklin Float IIs
Yeah that sounds stupid alright. they cant be that good, my float 2s are not that good if you compare them to the K 1000. But a fun object non the less. Does anybody know of a site that sells refurbishing stuff? I heard there was one?- hostarn

AKG K601 & K612 Pro Owners... UNITE!!
I use the direct phono out of NAD amps. Works pretty good since NAD has good headphone amplification (relatively I guess). But what is the best way to drive them then?- hostarn

pmb floats!
Man I dlove to get a hold of those. I got a model 2 but I m not so impressed. Wierdly I think they sound a little bit "inside the head". Offcourse I m comparing them with the K 1000s, which I maybee should not do. If there is that much difference between them I need to try them. Seems rare though?- hostarn

What Was the First Concert You Ever Saw?
Glad to see that Mr David Cotton has it worse than me, as my concert was Bon Jovi, back in the late 80s. Still, when they played living on a prayer or whatever its called, I shat my pants of joy (I was 9 and I sincerly dug the #&/%€ out of that tune back then). I hope you got to see Magnum later... -

I just got mine today. I do not know what I was expecting, but I m a little disappointed. I think I thought that they would beat my AKG K 601, but that is not the case. They are a really funny adition to the collection though. My main problem is that a headphone of this type is - for me - meant...- hostarn

AKG K1000 Replacement Cable
Hi I m looking for a end part of the cable for my 1000s. I will NOT fiddle with the stock that goes out of the phone. But if one can get better sound just by changing the stock extension Im on it. Thread is a bit old though. Does anyone have tips on links or sellers at the moment?- hostarn

AKG BAP1000 Comments
I was just going to start a thread like this when I thought about searching first and I found this. But then I saw that no one has answered on it. Is it possible that no one here has the BAP? Personnally I feel scared paying over 2000 euros for it without having heard a couple of testimonys. anyone?- hostarn
