    First winter with Zu Mobius - Shocking!

    Didn't think this would set off such a hullabaloo. First off, plain ole cotton t-shirt would be my usual attire when I'm finally settled in for some listening. Second I'm probably already charged cause I will get zapped in these conditions when I touch metal, donning headphones or not. I know...

    First winter with Zu Mobius - Shocking!

    Besides strapping a humidifier to my upper torso, if anyone can elaborate: "The Mobius cable is designed to shunt all RF and static voltage to ground, if the headphone amp ground is floating, combined with low humidity will yield this. Likewise, if your amp is referenced to Earth, most...

    First winter with Zu Mobius - Shocking!

    "Why doesn't he just tape a little piece of wire on his leg and let it dangle on the ground to bleed off static like they do in cars." Actually I've gotten into the habit of tapping my metal equipment stand before donning the phones to discharge myself - an anticipated shock is better than...

    First winter with Zu Mobius - Shocking!

    Most disconcerting & I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this. I purchased the Mobius (for Senn 650s) last spring & it's a fine cable, as advertised. However, as the static electricity season has been ushered in here in NY, the cable is clipping the hell out of me. Arms, neck...

    Audio Valve RKVII/Impedanzer w/Sennheisers?

    My inquiry was based on my reading somewhere (can't recall where) that the Impedanzer is advantageous for use with any headphones, among other things it supposedly further lowers the noise floor (though the 650s appear already to be quieter than the 600s used previously). I guess I'll dig the...

    Audio Valve RKVII/Impedanzer w/Sennheisers?

    Anyone using this combo? Having all 3 components at my disposal (the Senn being the 650) I was wondering if there was any point/advantage to using the Impedanzer with the 650s. The Impedanzer worked wonders with the Sony CD3K. But the Senns, already with high impedance, sound quite fabulous to...

    AT-W1000 vs. W2002

    I'd like to try one of AT's woody phones. Simply put, what would I be losing by going after the much less & obviously more available 1000s? I gather the 2002s are nicer/better cosmetically. How large are the sonic differences & is this gap worth pursuing/wallet emptying?

    Coupla' questions for AKG K1000 veterans

    Thanks for the help, guys. Got the adjustments straightened out. Still find these phones to be mighty uncomfortable, though. Perhaps they need some getting accustomed to so I'll give 'em some time. In another post someone complains about the cheap plastic used in expensive headphones. The...

    Coupla' questions for AKG K1000 veterans

    Received my K1000s today & immediately snapped 'em on to test noggin compatibility. Initial reaction was, well, not positive. The owner's manual (thick because it includes basically all UN languages) made mention that the temple pads were somehow adjustable but failed to bother with a how-to...

    The Best Amp's for AKG 1000's

    Has anyone by any chance compared the 600s & 1000s with the RKV? I'd love to know if it's worth the additional investment. The fact that Headroom ships 'em with the 1/4" termination is a mighty plus.....tempted....

    The Best Amp's for AKG 1000's

    Hmmm....how would one, um, go about connecting the AKGs to an RKVII assuming, of course, one might be inclined to do so?? Kinda curious what the 1000s would sound like with my RKV, compared with Senn 600s currently being employed. And just in case the fever refuses to abate, where might one...
