    +1, a gentle amount of warmth but still solid state - it'll drive LCD's properly.

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Valhalla 2 is, imo, the better pairing here. I like things amped well, so I personally don't like too much tube distortion (even on my HD800). Valhalla gives you tube power and the CHANCE to tube roll for a more traditional tubey sound.   Crack sounds a little too tubey for me, which wasn't to...

    Pad Rolling for MrSpeakers Ether & Ether Flow

    Hey everyone,   I was demoing the MrSpeakers Ether Flow, and let's just say I was blown away in every way except for comfort - which to me the HD800 is still the leader in, with the HEX and HEK second. It's to the extent that I don't want to purchase the Ethers unless I can swap the pads on...

For 20-30k, they're some of the best imaging devices in the world.   But they feel (and are) much much less durable (feeling, and in practice) than the higher end...

    @MaceHane2 I honestly think they will be here in ten years. The creaks don't feel like they're going to end in the headband shattering or something - it's moreso an annoyance than a concern. I'm a cheapass, so I was in the same boat as you on this. Keep an eye out for a used pair that you can...
