    Focal SPIRIT PROFESSIONAL Impressions thread

    No more impressions about these cans? Mods, recabling, amp matching... This is it? end of the way?

    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...

    Closed cans upgrade

    Any thought about the Mad Dogs Pro with Alpha Pads? Would you consider these cans as an upgrade of the K271´s?

    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?

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...
