Focal SPIRIT PROFESSIONAL Impressions thread
Hey there, Been testing the FSP for a few days and wanted to share my humble inpressions, really nice and refined closed cans I have to say. Only a few hours of burn in though. I will also make a few comparisons with other closed studio headphones like the DT150 and AKGK271s FSP offer...- moonshake

Closed cans upgrade
Great idea about the Beyers, I can order them from Amazon, yeah. They seem to be build like a tank. May they pair well with the Canamp?- moonshake

Closed cans upgrade
Hi there, I´ve been away from headphone / hifi community for some time and was experiencing some gear adquisition syndrome during these days. Usually using K271 with velour pads with good results as a help tool when I can´t use my studio monitors for mixing (also use K701 for sub bass...- moonshake

Old 3 way speakers vs. new 2 way bookshelf
Thanks again Valetudoguy, those Paradigm look nice but I already have some reference monitors for studio use. Same happens with the ATC SCM7, seems to be the perfect speakers for my situation but I´m afraid they can be too analytical (boring), lean sounding at low volumes. SCM7, Dynaudio 2/7... -
Old 3 way speakers vs. new 2 way bookshelf
Yes, ATC and Dynaudio demand a gutsy amp with lots of current. My amp delivers 100w but it´s signal quality could be improved. Basically, I need some easy to place with good bass standmount speakers for about 600€. What would be your choice? -

What about getting some used ATC SCM7? Any experience with them? -
Old 3 way speakers vs. new 2 way bookshelf
Jasper9295, Valetudoguy, thanks for the replies so far... The Monitor Audio BX2 are based on the previous BR2 and they get really great reviews but the thing is I don´t know how will they stand up in the bass dept. compared to my old 3 way JBL´s I´m basically looking for good all-arround... -
Old 3 way speakers vs. new 2 way bookshelf
Hey there, Been thinking about an upgrading of my JBL TLX500 speakers I bought these more than ten years ago, they´re plugged to a 100W Sony STR-DE325 receiver and they´ve been working fine as a stereo system for music and movies in a 18 sq meter room. I was looking for some front ported...- moonshake

The AKG K550 Impressions and Discussion Thread!
Quote: Sure...I´ve tested the Canamp with a bunch of efficient cans (especially Grados/Alessandros) and the pairing could not be worse. To my ears, I´ve found this amp very picky but amazing with current hungry headphones like the K701 Thanks for the recommendation about the...- moonshake

The AKG K550 Impressions and Discussion Thread!
Yeah, the k702 sings with the Canamp, also (and even better for my ears) the closed k271 is a golden match for that amp. I own both and the k271 are my reference cans for mixing except for measuring very deep bass freqs -from 40 - 80hz- where the k701 becomes a more precise tool. Both cans...- moonshake
