Hope it alright to revive this thread partially. I guess there's only 6 of us here in Vegas. I normally only lurked but I finally got some gear worth talking about recently so I might as well mention myself.

O2+ODAC would be the cleanest set up you could buy at $200-300 really. I heard that Hifimediy Saber DAC with the Schiit Magni would be a similar if not equivalent setup for less.

Isn't there a coupon/offer code: RAZORDOG20 20% off of a product(Not entirely sure what the limitations are on it), but the last time I heard of the code it was working fine for HD600.

For all those Bottlehead Crack owners, what cables do you use? Monoprice, the Bottlehead Power Cord Kit, or something else?

Didn't Steve used to sell 4 pin XLR to Dual 3 pin XLR? What happened to them?

Has anyone here had experience with HD600 + Bifrost and Modi? I assume Modi and ODAC have little if any difference and I'm wondering if the $420 difference is justified or not. Not on a heavy budget but I don't want to spend as much as possible. Plan to go with HD600 + Bottlehead Crack + DAC of...

Bump?

I've been looking around for IEMs and I'm really poor with interpreting information so I decided to make a thread. I listen to classical mainly (80%+ of my playlist) and I was looking to spend around ~$100 on IEMS. I saw some good things about Westone W4 and IE 80s, but are they worth the steep...

  What would you suggest for a DAC with the Crack?

Huzzah, I have the funds and the excuse to grab a pair of HD600s. My current pair of " gaming " headphones, such a bad purchase, is just about to die and I'll acquire HD600s some time soon. Though I'm a little confused on what I should pick up for an amp/DAC. I'm looking at around $200 total...

I saw a picture of a "Q" cable and the beauty of it made me really consider grabbing one. I mean I want great audio quality but I don't want a horrendous looking cable. Though I was wondering, does having an adapter go from 4-Pin XLR to Dual 3-Pin XLR give any extra audio quality? I was planning...

Odd question but, does anyone here own a Blue Spark or a discrete microphone and HD800s? Was wondering if HD800s are picked up by the mic or not.

Thanks for all the potential input, really persuading me to go grab a pair soon. 

Opinion on Bifrost Uber + Lyr for the HD800s? Nightflight I see that you happen to be running that, how's that working out for you? Also what tubes have you seemed to like the most for the Lyr?

Opinions on HD800 with Schiit Lyr and Bifrost Uber?

How does the A2 compare to the Magni in amping K701s? Should I just grab the A2 over the Magni and call it a day? Source used would be a Modi, should I upgrade that instead? ( I wasn't sure in which thread to post so I chose both. )

For 701s does anyone know the difference between the Asgard 2/Modi and Magni/Modi? Or really just how well any of those two pair with the 701s?

Quote: This makes me rethink them. Though I'm not too much into heavy bass and I prefer a better treble experience so I still think I'll be sticking with AKG for this one. Though I'm still confused on DACs and Amps.

Quote: The V shape for DT880s don't appeal to me very much so I think the 701s seem to be my wanted pair for sure now. I don't have a DAC/AMP yet, any suggestions? I heard the 701s are hard to amp. The Magni/Modi looks pretty appealing but maybe I should grab an Asgard 2/Modi?

Best open headphones under $300? Also what should you prioritize in buying, your DAC or your Amp?

I'm planning to pick up a pair of K702s but I'm not entirely sure what amp to grab with it. I was first looking at the Magni/Modi combo but some people said they had a better experience with an Asgard 2/Bitfrost but that's out of my budget. Should I go with a Asgard 2/Modi or what?

I suppose rather than making another thread I'll add onto this. What should you prioritize DAC or AMP? Such as grabbing an Asgard 2 with a Modi or a Magni with a Bitfrost. Or really any DAC/AMP I'm just using Schiit as a convenient example. All of this is in reference of the K702s.

So I would believe that the AKG(Q) 701, 702 are up to my personal preference. Is there any difference between the 701, Q701, and 702? To what I've read the 701 and 702 are just colors and i'm not entirely sure about the Quincy Jones edition. I was looking at buying a Schiit Modi/Magni Combo but...

Quote: Bump.

What do guys you think of a AKG 702 + Schiit Modi/Magni for Classical?
