The HE1 Tubes coming from?

You know from where iPads, iPhones, Macs, etc. comes? You know more about Foxconn? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn

I've heard the HE1 several times at the Klangbilder exhibition in Vienna - and I was able to listen to it alone before the exhibition officially began. Quite nice, sounds quite good, seemed a bit ‘too warm, too full in the upper bass’ to me. But I would never pay that price - even if I had the...

One day you will be shaken awake! :gs1000smile: :beerchug: :L3000: China is a market of well over a billion people, many of whom are very wealthy. India has already overtaken China in terms of population - and also has a wealthy upper class. Japan should not be forgotten either! It's just a...

Nomax, you don't see some manufactured in China, .... yes, you don't know! Every electric car; many computer, smartphones (including cameras) has much more engineering craftsmanship as the HE1! HE1 is old technology. China produces rockets and shoots satellites to the moon and brings them back...

These prices are simply crazy ..... :smiling_imp: For 70k ... 100k $€ you get a very good electric car - and there's a lot more engineering expertise and technology in it! 👍🥰

Infinity Reference Standard (IRS), (Arnie Nudell, John Ulrick, Cary Christie) https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/tas-legacy-the-infinity-reference-standard-irs-loudspeaker/ plus 4 Krell Monoblock Amps + Krell pre Amp (Dan & Rondi D'Agostino) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krell_Industries...

At the Head-fi meeting in Vienna: The HD6xx confirmed my feelings about the Sennheiser HD6 series (I owned an HD600) - sounds too little rousing for my ears, ‘smooth, emulsionless’. Contrary to this are DT1990, K812, Composer .... and the mod. HD800.

I heard the widest stage with the modified HD800. Hardly anyone can compete with that, not even Composer or K812. . The ‘grid model’ (feasibility study from 3D printer) of a totally open headphone sounded good, but the driver failed with the deep bass of “Mystical Scent - He Xuntian“, it hit...

unfortunately we were already gone by then :slight_smile: "starguest" oratory - indeed THE starguest :heart_eyes: :beerchug:

For me 50:50 that I come

You are right, the actual hearing takes place in the ‘slime computer’ (brain), the ears are only the microphones!

Still unsure if I will come. If then I don't bring anything. Does it transmit video (or images) by signal?

70.000 Euros .... it's totally crazy :cry::scream:

Mostly I don't use any CD Player .... I ripped all of my interesting CDs, pay'd some music (many HighRes files) as download. My music center is my MacMini (M1, 16 GB RAM, 2TB SSD). Play'd with Jan Meier Corda Daccord ff DAC and Austrian.Audio Full Score one headphone amp.

NDH-30 <--> HD-490 PRO? Whats the differences here?

I own a DT1990 and use analytic pads. What is the audible difference between DT1990, its ‘sibling’ Amiron Home and T1.3? I know the frequency responses of all three. DT1990 <--> Amiron DT1990 <--> T1.3 Amiron <--> T1.3

I don't want to buy a pig in a poke. A loan/test programme (promotion) would be interesting. I took part in some of these programmes at a German hi-fi forum years ago. An English headphone amplifier manufacturer and an English hi-fi forum also had such campaigns at the time. The participants...

schiit is a little bit exotic here in Europe and this are the other side :slight_smile:

Jotunheim full discrete with comparable complex circuit + DC protection circuit + complex power supply unit? More about ->>

Full Score one is a very good headphone amp! This is an ‘inaudible amplifier’ - which means very, very close to the ideal of ‘a pice wire with gain’. I've been listening with this for a while now, even with different headphones.

DAC and headphone amplifier only. No memory for music? I would only like something with at least 500GB SSD storage.

I've asked similar questions in other threads, has anyone here compared the 660S2 with the 490 Pro and can report back?

Alcantara Pads? It would be too long to tell you all that, I'll probably have to visit Vienna. There is a lot of electronic expertise involved.
