Any recommended amp for cks70? To me, I think these headphones are execellent for trance, but for metal... Im pretty sure a decent amp would be a excellent compliment. Suggestions!?

to jant71 that was comprehensive Sf3 sounds like a keeper. Perhaps its good for jazz, soft rock got audition it sometime thanks btw

Excellent value for money Good audio quality Their Achilles heel? inadequate distribution center, low market coverage. and also incompatibility issues such as paypal etc I would really like to give headphones a shot, their commanding price does seem tempting but imagine paying...

I somehow torn between ne-7m or pl50 Somehow, I listen to a lot of rock/metal Which would be suitable for me? Any suggestion? and mids and bass are both important to me and Im in a dilemma as ne-7m strongest point is bass and yet pl50 strong point is mid. aww TIA

at least they never lie. Unlike some unethical merchants here which I will not mention who.

I was expecting a ranking or some sort, since you mentioned comparison =PP

To the TS I dont understand why people want to point out the cons of your own rigs, saying different frequency, sibilance, rolled of highs etc etc .... and the list goes on Music is something meant to be enjoyed not use for evaluation for your rigs. it is something to make you tap in...

I cant help to notice, So this dac doesnt comes with a headphone output? and volume control?

What!? Woman, they dont need headphones, they need pots, pans and ingredients, In the kitchen and thats where they belong to. Period Lolx jus kidding, spare me the flaming please. =D

I've read a lot of reviews stating that SA5000 are not good with rock, but does very well for classical music. Now the paradox for me is that I listen to a lot of Symphony metal combining both classical & metal will SA5000 satisfy me? Btw which dac is preferred to drive these headphones...

So am I save to conclude that the titles and the comments "K702 in the Studio" is pretty much to say that 702 is good for recording due to unique and perhaps a little controversial presentation whereas for music entertainment it is good but certainly not the best.

I've seen people terminate it to a balanced cables on D7000 What differences does it make compared to a 1/4? Does it just sound "more balanced" as the name suggests?

Here Let me google that for you I find out myself just searching a few threads. I rather teach you to fish rather than giving you a fish. it just takes a little "activist" mindset and TA DA Good luck/.

Hello guys, all these readings and reviews really got me interested in this masterpiece, But after reading from page 30 onwards, am I safe to conclude that D7000 indeed have an improvement over D5000 and D2000 but not significant? Yes I am aware of the theory of "diminishing returns" people...

Recently I came to be aware of balanced headphone cables and normal headphone cables But is there a difference in terms of quality. Or it is just as they are named, balanced headphone cables sound more balance than to normal headphone cables??? additionally why do they cost more? Also I do...

Correct me if I am wrong thanks I read currawong review, he mention in normal Computer -> Compass Dac -> headphone In this case I will be only using the dac option right? whereas in super mode Computer -> compass dac-> Amplifier -> headphone As for this case I will be using the amp...

cool was keen on getting a compass but hearing the good review of ref 1. but too bad the price tag is a no no for me.

audio-gd reference? isnt this company the creator of compass dac too? how come they are labeled as dedicated source, they do not play cd or do they? Speaking of which I think audio gd should really improve their site navigation, it just do not match their good customer's service as some have...

I think you probably find many people suggesting LD MKIII which claim to have good synergy with HD650
