How does these compare to the K601? I've had my K601's for nearly 3 years now and I absolutely love them. I'm looking at getting another pair of headphones just because I'd like to try something else, though. I was set on the HD 650's as these seem to be quite different from the AKG "house...

Quote: Yes, I figured this out a while ago. It seems the general crashing while using WASAPI with Winamp got fixed when I bought a new DAC. I've been testing for a while and it seems stable as long as I do not tick "slave to input sample rate ..." in the options. This will make Winamp...

Another thing I've noticed while using Winamp is that it seems to be sending out 96KHz (which is the max my DAC can receive over USB) all the time, while players like Foobar outputs whatever the track is encoded in (44,1KHz 99% of the time). I'm not sure if this has any possible effect on the...

I'm new to Foobar and I've been trying to figure out this by myself for a while, but I can't seem to get it working. Basically, my Foobar looks like this is using Columns UI with foovert theme (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=78840&st=0):         How do I...

Quote:   How do you find the K601's compared to the HD650's? From what I've read they should be almost diametrically different? As I mentioned I'm looking at picking up a pair of HD650's just to try something new and different. 

Quote:   Simply that not a lot of people seem to be using these, or recommending them over other headphones in their price range. Although the latter can be disregarded now that I can't find them in stock anywhere here in Norway and since they're gone from AKG's website. I still suspect...

Yes, I really do think the K601 is an underrated headphone. I've had mine for 2,5 years now and I've been extremely pleased with them.    I bought a Yulong D100 from the classifieds here at Head-Fi which should arrive in not too long, which will be replacing a vintage NAD 1020A/X-Fi combo...

I don't use any other plug-ins and I've never installed any either.    But sure, I'll give reinstalling Winamp a go and see if it helps.

Winamp crashes here after playing FLAC and then switching to MP3. It's strange, it doesn't happen if I just switch back and forth, but if I play say an entire album in FLAC and then attempt to start an MP3, it crashes. Everything is set up as in the first post. Using the newest version of Winamp...

Aren't the K601's discontinued altogether now? I can't find them on their website, nor do any e-tailers here carry them any more.   Mine are made in Austria, but then I bought them 2 and a half years ago.

From what I've read the 601's are harder to drive than the 701's. The 601's are 120 ohms, so. They also have more relaxed highs than the 701's so I was hoping they would match the D100 better. Though that's why I wanted the MK2 since it's supposed to have a slightly warmer sound. But then I got...

Hm.. still on the fence with whether the amp section of the D100 would have enough power for my AKG K601's. Not a lot of people have these so I don't expect to find anyone who has tried, but they are known to be rather power hungry...

Quote: Has anyone tried this with the K601's? I'm in the market for a new DAC/amp for my beloved 601's and I this has piqued my interest. I was pretty much settled on the Yulong D100, but it would seem this has a considerably more powerful amp section. Any thoughts?

Quote: I can't seem to find any users under "Tamaudio". WSZ0304 has the D100 mk II though. Thanks!    Anyone tried the user "coolfungadget"? That's the top pick when searching for Yulong D100.

Most recommended sellers to get this from on Ebay?

Thank you for sharing first-hand experience, much appreciated!   rawster: Could you elaborate a bit on what the 601's sound like on the Yulong? Is there anything you feel is missing? How are the high's? I'm allergic to SSSSSSSSS'es. Hehe.

Thank you for the suggestions.   I was looking at the Audio-gd earlier today, actually. But I couldn't figure out how to actually buy one from their site. I guess I'm also a little worried it won't be powerful enough..? Anyone tried this with AKG's?   The Yulong looks great. But for that...

Thank you for the welcome!   Yes, that is a little out of my budget. It looks really, really nice though. My car needs repairs (isn't it funny how that always happens when you're finally able to release funds for something "fun"?), so I can't really go further than 4-500 USD now. Surely I...

I bought a pair of AKG K601's last year which I have enjoyed immensely. Up until now I have used them on a cheap Firestone Fireye 2 amp/DAC when used with my laptop, and an old NAD preamp with the X-Fi soundcard in my desktop computer as DAC.    This has has worked fairly well, however, I do...
