    New Zealand meet, May 24th in Auckland

    Hi Guys,   Great day today & nice to meet some new people.   Big thanks to Murray & Billy for organising and although I was slightly (i mean a lot) by my humble gear it was a great opportunity to try some different cans and low & behold I had a massive smile whilst listening to the LCD-X :-)...

    Looking forward to tomorrow guys.   I will be bringing the Bushmaster MK2 DAC/Headphone Amp, my budget cans (Superlux), Macbook Pro and a multiboard (hopefully that should cover it)!   I am really looking forward to trying out some contenders to beat my fav cans (up to now) HD800's so I will...

    New Zealand meet, May 24th in Auckland

    I will jump on TM and grab a ticket.   Still wondering whether to bring along my Bushmaster Mk2 DAC to give an idea of the other end of the scale of price etc :-(   I still think its a good DAC (for stereo purposes, I havent really tried it out with cans) and I would love to be able to try...

    New Zealand meet, May 24th in Auckland

    Thanks for the heads up email Billy, I would love to come along to this :-)   I have been a constant pain for Billy at computer lounge by jumping from looking to buy some T90's then perhaps T1's then completely changing thinking and looking at the HD800's :-(   I dont have any decent cans to...

    Beyerdynamic T90 Discussion and Support Thread

    I have been looking at the T90's and will purchase (as soon as I have got the cash together!!)   I have also noticed that they can be a little sibilant/bright so I am really interested in the option of managing this brightness via an equalizer.  My question is (sorry for the newby question) is...

    Beresford Bushmaster DAC as a Headphone Amp???

    Thanks for that and I will test the t90's with the DAC, my question was more around if the beresford would be a good match or would I be better looking for a dedicated headphone amp to get the best our of the T90's?

    Newbies first (and second) Proper Headphone Demo

    Thanks Matey, i will have a detailed  read through the thread but the ones i have just read all look really positive.   I was hoping to get back into the shop this week but it looks like that might not be a go-er so probably be back in early next week.   One more quick question, I don't...

    Newbies first (and second) Proper Headphone Demo

    Thanks Brooko I think you are right re hot swapping between cans, it definitely happened going from RS1is to the HD600 in my first session but was the opposite today going from the RS1i's to the T90's (the grados really faded in comparison to the wide sound stage of the T90's.   I have looked...

    Thanks for that,  I will definitely be back in soon to try the T90 with the Beresford DAC.   For anyone else reading this & happen to be in Auckland, you cant do a lot better than the service and selection at computer lounge (sorry for the shameless plug but I was really grateful for the time...

    Newbies first (and second) Proper Headphone Demo

    Well firstly thanks for the time today, it really helped to get my head around the different sounds and cans!! and the additional discount might certainly twist my arm ;-)   Do you think its worth me trying out any of the ATH range equivalent to the price point of the T90's?

    Hey All,   I thought I would post my findings after (finally) getting my butt off to the local Hi-Fi store and would be interested in your thoughts about how I found the cans & some improvements to how I describe the sound (we all have to start somewhere!!)   Bit of background first, I am...
