Sneak peek of Audio-Technica AT-HA5050H (pre-production unit)
Just ordered mine this morning. Also a bargain price, it being a floor model. Now I'm very curious about your power cable. I'm not able to get to their store for a demonstration, which model are you using? How much do they run? I'm not able to find any info online- skylinedo

Audio Technica AT-HA5050H and HA22Tube
'Would also like to see a compro maybe against other amps in its (~$300) price range. But seems changing out the tubes would change impressions everywhere! Which makes it complicated when trying to determine "bang for buck." This is my first amp so I have nothing but a sound card to...- skylinedo

How did you arrive at Audio Technicas ?
Been listening to Japanese music for 8 years now. I then did research and landed myself some ATH-AD2000s but went to head-fi @ san jose. Got to hear the ATH-W11JPNs. Sounded so beautiful I cried.

Koss Pro/4AAA - 70's vintage cans
they sound decent for their time. very neutral, weak in the bass area. those were the best headphones on the market back in the 70s until a company named Sennheiser sprung up.- skylinedo

Are Koss headphones really so breakable?
my KSC75s literally take a beating (specifically the wiring). so far they're holding up great and maybe someday my soldering iron won't be so lonely ...- skylinedo

&%#@ Fans %&^#$!!!
80mm Vantec Tornado's . j/k wire a switch to your current fans to toggle off/on when you're gaming or not. if not go w/ the UV silent, they're silent but don't push as much air. i personally went w/ the switch mod.- skylinedo
