    Grado HP-2 more Sennheiser-like than Grado-like?

    Hi, peepz! I've just received my Joseph Grado HP-2 with JGSUWBR cable today! Happy as a little kid with a new toy! Sadly, I don't have any headphone amp for the time being. Waiting for the Zana Deux for a while now. Also, my Opera has been sent to dr Meier for repairs... First...

    Need cheap closed headphone advice!

    Hi guys! I kinda need help for a friend. He’s looking for a nice headphone, he asked me about it (he called me headphone freak!) and I’m feeling bad as I can’t really answer his question. I was kinda hesitant to post this hear, because I think you guys will empty his wallet in no-time. He just...

    Is a used Meridian 507 @ €999 still good value?

    Guess the title says it all! What do you guys think? Or are there better options for that price? Thanks in advance for all the advice!

    Amp suggestion please!

    Need help! Currently looking to sell my gear (HD650, Little Dot III+, HeadFive, Zhaolu DAC 1.3) to build a system around my K701. I was wondering, is a SinglePower PPX3 (-SLAM) a good choice? Or the Raptor? Also, I've got HF-1. In the future, it might be replaced by a RS-1. I would like...

    K701! Or...?

    Begin rant Okay. This is what happened... I've bought the HD650 and the K701 about 2 months ago. Couldn't make a choice between them, so why not buy both! Also got a HF-1, Beyer DT770/80 at this moment in time. They're connected to my NAD cd player (and sometimes the Zhaolu DAC 1.3) to the...

    Is this strange??

    My journey so far: Started with a Sennheiser HD555. Loved it. Upgraded to a Magic Red HD595. Again, loved it. Also bought a AT A900LTD from Benny along the way. And somehow, a very nice head-fi'er was willing to sell me his Grado HF-1. Couldn't resist, coz like some people say: Resistance is...

    Use high-end CD-players only as transport?

    I’m getting more and more sucked into the world of audiophiles. However, my knowledge is infinitely less than most of the people on this forum. I think my problem is easily solved by you HeadFi’ers! I was wondering, do I still need an external DAC when I buy a nice CD-player? For instance, do...

    Guys, I am in need of some advice! I've got the equipment as stated in my sig... But somehow, it never seems enough! But girlfriend says it is, but somehow I doubt it... So... What should I buy to complete my stash? An Alessandro MS2i or a HD650 or a K701??? I'm kinda leaning towards a...

    No HF-1-> MS2i??

    Okay... Disappointed as I was as I didn't get the HF-1, I went out straight away and auditioned the SR325. And while I was there, I also listened to the RS-2. Very hard to find in Rotterdam!! I compared them to the HD650 (also there), and WOW, what a difference!! I didn't know my untrained...

    Help a n00b! DAC helpful?

    Guys, need some advice! I currently have a Sennheiser HD595 hooked up to a Firestone Cute Beyond amp hooked up to a X-Fi XtremeMusic. I wonder if it helps to buy the Firestone Spitfire DAC? I know, a better (=more expensive) DAC would probably help, but it is not an option for me at the...
