Yep, still available!

Bump with large price drop.

Up for sale is my RAAL Requisite SR1A headphones, a matching black Jotunheim R amplifier, and the convolution filter from Accurate Sound that applies calibration to further improves their performance. I also have a (pictured) RME ADI-2 DAC available that makes an excellent match for this setup...

Are there any online sources for this stuff? Where are we getting the info about the new closed headphones?

That's what the JH-3A was originally supposed to be. As I understand it, Jerry filed the patent application before selling UE to Logitech, and when the application was successful UE ended up owning the patent, thus being able to prevent JH from making it. UE is now permanently sitting on the patent.

I was hoping the next JH monitors would target a reference sound, and it's great to see that it happened. So much money, though...

Rules are rules, fine, but when I see flipping in the classifieds I'm inclined to ignore it because I think it's actually good, not bad, for the community. Flippers are essentially providing liquidity. It's true, if you buy a pair of headphones in a sale for $100 and then sell them for $150, you...

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to import the RCS 800 to the US cheaply?   Edit: I guess I actually need the RCA 800.   Edit2: It looks like the RCA 800 was never released. Does anyone know of any high-quality substitutes?

It seems there are now some third party music players that work with Spotify, including one that's marketed for its more precise EQ.  Does this mean it is now possible to make CanOpener compatible, or is the app different somehow?   By the way, I was very pleased to see that you'll be adding...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a replacement cable for my Shure SRH1540 headphones, and I'm not really finding what I'm looking for, so I thought someone here might be able to point me in the right direction.  I'm not after any audiophile hoopla, just a moderately priced cable that will be...

Here's an interesting looking product:   http://www.amazon.com/Technica-ATH-BT05-BK-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B0087BQCHE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1378333220&sr=8-1&keywords=ATH-BT05   It includes a variation of the CKM500 along with a bluetooth receiver/amp that has an integrated mic, media...

Quote: Yes!  If you're on a Mac.  My setup is Spotify -> Soundflower -> AU Lab running Isone plugin.  All OS X sounds now go through Isone and whatever other plugins I use with AU Lab.  It took a while.   By the way, has anyone compared this with the FHX plugin for Fidelia?

The price should gradually come down after they come to the US.  Such is the way of things.  The SA5000 started at $699 and went down to around $350.  The Z1000 may very well be a sub-$300 headphone within a year or so, but I'm not sure I'm going to be able to wait that long.

dsissitka said the D12 is working for him, but it's not working for me.  When I connect the D12 to the camera connection kit, the USB charge switch in the off position, I get a message saying, "The connected USB device requires too much power."  Any advice is appreciated.

I haven't seen many posts about the SRH750DJ, but I bought them just a few days ago. They're really fantastic for the money. A little background: I recently sold my Edition 9 and will likely be ordering a JH13 or JH16 within a month or two. In the interim, I was planning to rely on my HD25s, but...

Yeah; it's been a couple of months and I'm still waiting eagerly for Jude's impressions. I would preorder them, but I want to hear something about them from someone before I decide between them and the JH13. It's starting to get close to when they'll be released and we'll start hearing about...

Would there be any chance of seeing graphs of the Rx's THD, IMD, noise, channel separation and frequency response when driving something like a 30 Ohm load? Like, RMAA measurements?

Sheesh,two thirds of the first one hundred are gone in half an hour... I suppose there's been a demand for this product for a very long time.

Count me in. Black USA One USB cable. If possible, I'd still really like to see those loaded measurements before I place my order.

Shigzeo, I'm not sure you understand what gain is. Gain is not the volume setting. There is a gain switch under the front panel of the amp that can be set to either 1.5 or 6. When the gain is set to 1.5, the maximum volume of the amp (when the volume is set to max) is 1.5 times that of the input...

I don't have the time to dig this up right now, but someone posted measurements of the headphone out and lineout of some of the newer ipods, with no load (e.g. the input of an amplifier presents virtually no load), and the headphone output turned out to perform better. In fact, its overall RMAA...

What gain setting have you been using with the Rx? I'm wondering how the gain setting affects the hiss.
