    HIFIMAN HE6 or STAX SR-507...which to choose, and why?

    I have just finished a project for my HE 6, Rega Brio R amp with remote, Canare Star Quad microphone cable, Audioquest banana plugs, Neutrik 4 pin xlr. Have given the amp some hours with speakers, and tried it today with HE 6, good sound and plenty power, love the remote.

    The Entry Level Stax Thread

    Hi, I have a SR-407 with a broken case holder (one of the pins holding the right ear speaker has broken off). Can anyone tell me how to remove the broken case holder from the headband so I can replace it with a new one?

    Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones

    I also prefer balanced mode on my Taurus mk2, it sounds more substantial on both He 6 and Lcd 2.2. On my tube amp He 6 sounds very good from the speaker taps via He-adapter but I still prefer my Taurus.

    Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones

    I can not find the Master 6 on Audio-Gd´s home page, perhaps it is out of production. The importer here in Norway only has the master 10 which costs more than my Taurus and must be used with the he-adapter because it lacks headphone outputs.

    Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones

    I spent some hours yesterday comparing my Taurus Mk2 with GD Audio Precision 1 (loaner) and the Taurus was better despite the higher power output of the Precision one. One the Precision one I used the He-adapter and the headphone jack, and tried both low and high gain but compared to the Taurus...

    Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones

    Hi, I have got a balanced cable from Q-audio which is very comfortable and sounds good. I run my He 6 from a Line Magnetic Audio 216 IA tube amp via he-adapter or balanced from my Taurus mk2 and I think the Taurus has the upper hand. I have been trying balanced and single ended from the Taurus...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I don`t have an AH 900 but I have a Denon AH-D5000 and started by buying the Parasound Z-Dac. The Z-dac is pretty decent and includes a fairly good headphone amp, my only gripe is the 1/8" headphone jack so if you have a 1/4" plug you will need an adapter. Inputs: coax - optical - usb. Outputs...

    Bose Quiet Comfort 15 (QC15): Impressive noise cancellation

    Hi, I have a job in a workshop with a lot of noise, and the QC 15 are excellent. I have lossless music on my iPhone and the music helps me get through the day. The only time they are a little bit insufficient is when I am using an air pistol for blowing parts. Air pistols a few meters away are...

    Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones

    Hi, I have an Auralic Taurus mkII and the He 6 sound great on it, however I received a  He-adapter yesterday and connected it to my tube amp (Line Magnetic 216 - 2 x 38w in ultra linear or 2 x 22w in triode) and they sounded even better. I have ordered Q-Cables and will post my impressions after...

    AURALiC owners unite!

    Hi, bought an Auralic Taurus MkII in november and a pair of Lcd 2.2 which sound great. Yesterday I bought a used pair of He 6 (3 months old) from a guy that had taurus MkI -  Lcd 3 - Sennheiser HD800 and the He 6. He liked his Lcd 3 and HD800 better, so he sold the He 6 to me. I have a Rega...
