Just get something really expensive, don't remove the pricetags and if you want to shake your head look at it. +1 for the ultrasones, but it would help a lot if you specify you budget :>

Any experience report with the new opamp?

If you still go for the HD-25 drop me a pm, i have one to get rid of, almost unused.

Already mentioned that i _love_ this headphones? - listening to KoЯn - Did my Time - And i still love the bass in paired with the canamp. And i'm still waiting for the DacMagic. ^^ Have a nice Christmas

Jep, you dont need to solder them like they look there. Didn't know that the 627 also exists in a version for putting them into a socket. My construction looks like this: (one similar chip on the bottom side of the pcb) http://img.skitch.com/20081002-1s1ji...2ap66p5d9s.jpg They also have...

Little thing to add, if i had the choice now, i wouldn't go for the dual opa627 anymore, they are much too expensive for the overall quality of the firestone products. Doesn't mean they are crap, i still like the sound of the fubar a lot and will put it into my home rig as soon as the dacmagic...

I have to revaluate my thoughts on the bass when i have a decent source to listen to. The fubar with opamp upgrade isn't that bad but it's still a pcm2702 on a crappy wallwart feeded through usb after all. Only god knows how much bass i have to expect with a decent dac feeded through spdif...

Grados and Stax are something i still miss in my listening experience. Something which has to be changed some time though

Go my Edition 8 one and a half week ago now. The only thing i can say about them that they are ****ing incredible headphones! They owned every headphone i heard until now by far, including the K701 and the Tripple.Fi which i considered really really good sounding until i got the Ultrasone...

Ah and yea, judging form what i've seen now there sould be an adapter packed.

Yea, you probably got mine ^^ But nevermind, i waited for them my whole life, so there is nothing about a few more days I paid per bank transfer, i assume yours was paid by credit card. I'm curious about the bass they have, k701 are too weak for my taste for some kinds of music. But i've...
