The only thing that holds me for buying Dell 9300 is expensive but reading this thread makes me wanna pull the trigger! Anyone tried it with an amp? How good it was?

Another vote for Koss KSC75. This is a set of headphones that every beginner should have. If you buy those sub $100 headphones make sure you don't itch for upgrade! or else you end up spending more!

Buy yourself a used one to save money. PERIOD. Think about this: shipping? + taxes? + tools? + obsession? The latter is the most expensive one

Do we have to change some resistor value when we stack buffers? and what resistor was that?

Im almost done with the millet construction when I find out that I have a different Panasonic pot! Is it ok if I use EVJC20F02D54 instead of EVJC20F02A54? What are the differences between this two pots? Thanks!

If STEPS is better than ELPAC, should I expect a difference between ELPAC and TREAD? I've heard TREAD is identical to STEPS in Ripple Rejection Test. TREAD could be a good solution to those who are prudent.

I second the EQ suggestion, and in case someone is looking for an accurate EQ IMO, the best EQ out there for winamp is the Enhancer v0.17 the most accurate I've ever heard and IMMO sound better than foam mod. Install the plug-in to winamp and play with your fave setting. CHEERS!

Another vote for Koss here. Works well with any type of music.

Maybe foams makes a difference too! I'll look for some foam

Actually, I already tried this mod 2 months ago- it didnt sound any better to this ears, some details are gone, didnt improve the bass like I expected and lost its midrange, I coin-mod the foam 'thought it might sound better but it didnt help. But YMMV, it might sound good for others its just me

Anyone knows if tubestore match tubes? I emailed them and never got any answer.

Is it really important to have a matched tubes?

I got all the parts already except for the tubes Can someone tell me whats the most detailed tubes that works with millet? TIA!

That looks like it is connected directly to a Harman Kardon Reciever. How's the sound?

If anyone got a spare of 220µF/35V and 100µF/35 that ended up laying around please PM me and I'll buy it. TIA!

Why buy an expensive CANS if you don't wanna amped them? What's the point? I mean, DT880 can't show its real potential without an amp. I recommend koss 35/75 instead!

I think it is indeed 325i, I read his feedback and nobody seems complaining considering he sold lots of it already.

Hmmm.. 300 ohms? Of course, it definitely need an amp!

Is plus and minus means dual? like +/-15 = 30vdc if connected together? Quote: Originally Posted by rickcr42 Plus and minus 24VDC.no more difficult than doing plus/minus 15VDC

Dude, just order it and save yourself a gas!
