Hello everyone,   can anyone direct me to where I might find an orange colored version of the Hal-O teflon type, tube dampers?   thanks,   John

Hi,   has anyone tried to upgrade the Zana Deux and if so, how? I'm wondering if there's the potential for any capacitor upgrades and/or has anyone tried to upgrade the Blue Velvet, RK27 pot? I also know that Stephan Audio Art makes an umbilical upgrade for the ZD that is certainly not...

Hi, I have a Sansa Clip, which produces amazing sound for what it is and what it costs. I understand its performance is improved with better earbuds. At one sight, I saw a recommendation for a Sennheiser version, but can't find it. Nevertheless, I'm writing to ask for recommendations...

Hello everyone, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right section, but here's my question, nevertheless: Is there something lost, digital information and/or sound quality, in the burning of cd's, via software like Nero 8? The reason I ask is because, as I'm in the great white north, the...

Hi, I have a Meridian 508.24 and a Zana Deux. I'm using Audio Art- IC3's, which are a mixture of copper and silver. The Merdian is on the bright side and so without trying any other interconnect, I can't say how much of the blame goes directly to the IC-3's. Can anyone recommend an...

Hi, can anyone provide me with a comparison of these two cans? As I cannot audition, all I can hope for is feedback and so any and all info, appreciated. thanks, John

Hello everyone, I love my K701's married to my ZD and enjoy their sonic signiture. However, I'd like to try something else and am wondering how the ATH-W5000's compare to the K701's? Also, would any of you dedicated ZD owners have any other HP suggestions, recommendations? Any and all...

Hello everyone! I purchased my ZD used and absolutely love it. The unit never came with literature and I assume it never did/does. My question is: how much influence do the rectifier tubes have over the quality of the sound? Are a matched pair required and are they worth upgrading...

Hello everyone! I have a pair of 701's, driven by a beauty ZD amp. I'm wondering if these cans are worth recabling and if so, with what cables/technician? I'd love to know your recommendations. thanks, John

Hello everyone. The stock cable on my K701's is too short and so instead of getting a cable extension, I've been thinking about a cable upgrade. I've seen some stuff written about the RAL Cable upgrade and see it's available on Audiogon. I'd like to hear from those that have gone...

Hi, does anyone know if any company makes a 1/4" headphone plug to rca stereo input adapters? I know monster makes a 1/8" version, but are there any quality 1/4" versions? thanks, John

Hi, I'm just curious about setup. I'm currently listening to my K701's, via a 20', 1/4 to 1/4" headphone cable extension from my 990 prepro. Also, I'm thinking about purchasing a headphone amp and if I do, I'm wondering how best to make use of it. Is it better to have short rca...

Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this combination, with the Eddie Current Lunch Box and K701's? I've been leaning towards the Woo6, but the price of the lunch box is certainly very appealing. Then, again, if I'm not satisfied, it may not be a wise investment...

Hello everyone. I recently purchased a new pair of AKG K701 headphones to use with my Outlaw 990 pre/pro and as I sit ~ 20' away, I also purchased the Radio Shack, 20' headphone extension. As I'm in the process of building an HT system, I asked the fellow that built my speaker cables if he...

Hi, I'm relatively new to the idea of headphones, with headphone amps. I understand how these can be useful in a setting where one sits a computer or has an ipod or portable cd-player. However, I enjoy, believe it or not, listening to the radio! I've been wondering if there's such a thing...

Hi, I recently purchased a pair of K701's and can't get over the number of headphone amp choices out there, particularly tube amps. Are there any, what would be considered ideal, tube amps for the K701's? thanks, John

Greetings everyone. I just received my new K701's and look foward to experiencing them. I have two headphones, now, these and an old pair of Sony, MDR CD550's. I'm wondering if there's any resource for headphone stands, either as products for sale, or a site from which to gain ideas...

Greetings, everyone! After reading quite a bit on this forum, I decided to go for it and ordered a pair of K701's; I'll probably receive them sometime next week. I'm still reading threads and wondering about the influence of a dedicated headphone amp. And, so, here's my question: are...

Greetings everyone! This is my first post! I recently purchased an Outlaw 990 pre/pro for a surround sound setup, with my Anthem Statement A5 amplifier. However, currently I have only the rear speakers up and running, while awaiting the rebuild of my main speakers and need yet to purchase...
