Hey man, I am really enjoying it, thanks! I should have just ought those opamps from you lol, but I hadn't gotten that far into my research. I didn't really even think about it. What all have you tried tube wise in this amp? Any good starting places?

Howdy all. I just bought one of these off another HF member. This is my first amp with a tube. I am coming from a Fiio E10 and a PA2V2, so this is a nice upgrade. I have been using a set of Fischer FA-011's and Shure SRH840's and they both sound great. The FA-011's have benefited the most. The...

Haha sorry, I was trying to say that you are in the wrong for never having heard it!  If that is not his best then I need to listen to more of his work...

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but if you have not listened to Timestretch by Bass Nectar, you are wrong!

I just picked up a pair of these today.  I have to agree with what has been recently posted concerning the difference between the CKS77 and CKM500.  I listen to mostly rock, metal, progressive, and dabble in dub step.  The CKS77s and really fun, but sometimes the bass can be a little...

Those look like the ricer equivalent of headphones... Are they featured in the next Fast and Furious movie? Not sure what the point is though.... I mean, who cares if everyone else sees the visualization of you are listening to... it's not like you will be able to enjoy it or they will know what...

I am thinking of selling my set and replacing it with an electric so I can actually play and not piss off my wife and baby or terrify the dogs...  

In the Let's Talk Metal thread, someone mentioned The Deadstation. They have a free album out on bandcamp.com. They kind of sound like Dream Theater mixed with TesseracT to me. Sent from my MB865 using Tapatalk 2

How about Animals as Leaders. There are no vocals!

Dude have you ever seen Terry Bozzio play live? Yeah he has a massive drum set with lots of cymbals, but he uses the whole dang thing. I guarantee not many people in the world have as much individual limb control as he does. His ostenato beats are ridiculous. I can't even describe how awesome it...

Quote:   I haven't listened to it yet, but I just saw that it was mastered by the guy who has worked with Devin Townsend and Opeth.... I expect great things from that....   Edit: These guys have caught my attention for sure. They remind me of Tesseract and Dream Theater rolled...

Sell the A900X's  

Hi.  

Quote:   After auditioning the A900X's and SRH840s side by side, I can say that the A900Xs had more bass to my ears in addition to the wider sound stage.

I just bought a red pair of these from the electronic market in Seoul. I managed to haggle the price down to 90 won, or about 76 bucks. Not a bad deal! They sound great so far!   Edit: I have been listening to these and everything said thus far has been spot on. They really nailed the whole...

Alright, I just auditioned the K550s and A900Xs for about an hour at a headphone shop.  I am glad I ended up canceling the A900X order last week, because I will probably end up buying the K550s after the A/B session. Keep in mind I have no idea how long thee phones have been burned in or used...

I have a really narrow head and just auditioned these for about an hour at a headphone shop.  I found them to be very comfortable, and sealed very well.  I would not scare everyone with a narrow or small head away from these....  

Hm I thought based on the reviews I have read that the A900X would have more bass than the Shures, but either way I probably wont be disappointed. Besides, the FA-011s have plenty bass to get my fix. I was kind of hoping I might be able to sell the Shures if I like these enough and if they are...

I have not heard the FA-003's, but I own the 011s and really like them.  Just to pile on what was said above, the FA-011s definitely have a V shaped profile.  The bass and treble are very present, but I do not think they overpower the mids, which I really dig.  Also, they have a really nice...

So, how do they compare?  I wish I would have seen your post prior to ordering a set of A900X's, just to see how they A/B against each other.

I just dropped the hammer on a pair of these out of Japan.  I can't wait to get them!  Hopefully these will compliment my SRH-840s and FA-011s well.

Finally got a Fiio E10 and dig it so far with these headphones for the poster that was asking a page or so back. Not sure if they are being driven to their fullest potential, but they do sound nice. From the descriptions I thought there would be a tad more bass, but don't get me wrong it is...

Like others have said your source can make or break your listening experience! I experienced the same issue as you when I initially bought my laptop. It came stock with RealTek sound hardware and it seriously cuts out all bass. There are so many combinations of computer hardware out there, and...

Just bought a pair from a board member. I am digging them so far. I only have a PA2V2 and ASUS XONAR U1 to drive them with, so nothing too powerful. I am already craving a more powerful amp though. On the PA2V2 / COWON D2 there was a little bit of harshness in the treble, mostly notable when...
