    ATH-AD2000 or ATH-AD1000PRM for Radiohead, Pink Floyd and post rock

    I think I've narrowed down my choice in cans to these: ATH-AD2000 and ATH-AD1000PRM   I have no heard either and I live in the middle of nowhere, so I can't try them and I doubt people would lend them to me. Anyways, here's my full play list:

    If you would, look at my music and give me opinions for things under $500

    (note, phones will be driven by an M3 amp, and some day a β22 fully balanced)       I mostly listen to Radiohead, Sigur Rós, God Is An Astronaut, Portugal. The Man and Pink Floyd, but almost everything else does get some listing time.   I love the way the K702's look, but I'm...

    $300 cans for an M^3 amp playing post rock

    So at some point I'm going to get a M^3, if I can become 400 times at sourcing parts and building things (please help). Anyways, this is my Last.FM plays:     I'm also listening to a lot of The Smashing Pumpkins and The Twilight Sad as of late. So as you can see I like prog rock, alt...

    First good full size cans, K702?

    I'm looking into getting full cans, I have livewires which I love, but I think it's time I get a set of open cans. I'm poor (as audiophiles go), so the K702s look like they might be up my ally. I've got an M3 in the works, so that'll be powering it. I basically listen to prog rock and post rock...

    Looking to make someone interconnects at cost of parts

    I'm going to try my hand at making custom cables for people, so I need a beta tester and I have this proposal: I'll make you a cable, terminated how ever you want, for just the cost of parts I don't have on hand and shipping, which is connectors mainly.   I am not a believer in cables but...

    Cables: how I view them (and how you should, too)

    This is my sermon on cables, and I'd like to start by saying that I don't intend this to sound like a ultimatum on cables (you're gunna burn!), but it's my thoughts on the subject.   I build my own cables, and I will not tell anyone that I believe they sound any different from a Pear Audio...

    What's the best looking XLR male?

    Yeah, you heard me, I base my plugs on aesthetics! I'm looking for a plug to match this mic:    Gimmy your eyecandy XLRs. (hint: If I could afford Oyaide Focus's, I would use those)

    The most perfect cable ever?

      $1119.95 a foot to produce it and it was worth every penny. It's a Litz silver braid, but not just any silver, we draw it out at 1618kelvin, which is 1000x the golden ratio! But I don't stop there, oh no! I only draw it out on a full moon, which contributes to it's creation of Cooper pairs...

    Carbon fiber IEMs: could this be the strangest idea I've ever had?

    So, here's my thinking, I wana try to build a set of custom IEMs, but out of graphite, why? Because it's easy to lay up. I plan to get my ears molded, lay graphite over the thing to form a shell, vacuum bag it, and grind off the top at which point I will position as many drivers as I can in that...

    Tefzel Aircraft Cable

    So I had killed my fifth set of cables in my livewires, and I was done. I wanted some damn good cable, and boy I found it, tefzel aircraft cable, although it doesn't say it at ACS, I believe it to be silver plated like almost all the tefzel cable I've seen. I love this because it comes in coax...

    Powering multipul headphones on am M^3

    Could I just wire multiple headphone outs in parallel? Do they have to be impedance matched? Anyone know what they're doing more than being good with an iron and metre like myself?
