I am one of those currently researching IE'phones for office and travel (I have K-701's at home). I've been looking at the Shure SE310 and Ety 4S, but have recently become aware of the Klipsch offerings. I am likely to make a purchase prior to the review - it seems (from what is available by...

I have heard from Justin, and he has confirmed that he is a VERY busy person right now. I look forward to enjoying his quality amplification on my K-701's. Warmly, Michael

Yes. There are reasonable limits. I tend to be a very patient person, who is very accomodating of others' needs. However, I have learned much about boundaries in the past few years, and feel that simple acknowledgement is a key step in the communication chain. I'll try on my end. Until I...

Thanks for the helpful comments. I figured that he was booked solid, and am heartened to hear that he sometimes takes a little time to respond. I'll follow up again (and I'm always polite) and think that one possible piece of feedback is for his Paypal to send a confirmation e-mail that the...

Hi everyone, I just thought I'd check to see if anyone is sharing my current experience with Headamp..... I placed an order a week ago for an AE-2 (paid with Paypal), and haven't heard a peep from them (not even acknowledging my order). I'm certain they are quite busy with their new micro amp...

You see, here is where my ignorance of the tech stuf comes in! I assumed that as long as the potentiometer was turned down, the power output would be acceptable. This is very good to know. It looks as if I'll keep the Super T around for conventional loads. Thanks!

Has anyone tried using a Sonic Impact Super-T amp to drive their headphones? I was recently gifted one as a stand-in to drive my Omega Compact Hemps (amazing speakers, BTW) while I save for my Red Wine Sig 30, but have obtained a better amp for the interim. Anyhoo, I've got a Super-T just...

It sounds like you have a similar approach as I do (research the hell out of something before making the big commitment), so I appreciate your words of wisdom. For context, here's my long-term scenario....... I am currently working in the mainstream world in order to fund my home, which...

Thanks John. I also came across (and read) the "war of the worlds" thread, where an OM was used with numerous phones, including the 701's and the combo seemed to garner high marks. So, I'm curious, if I'm going to pop $200, would the OM be a better choice than the LD2+ ? Hmmmm..... I've also...

After many hours of research on these (and other threads), I'm considering numerous options, and opening the field to include non-portable amps. First of all, bear in mind that I am driving AKG K-701's (which I'm loving even on the headphone jack of my ss amp). Long term, I plan to purchase a...

Hey, everyone. I'm looking for a somewhat portable (battery powered) amp that can do justice for my K-701's which are now fully burned in and buttery smooth. I'm very interested in the Go-vibe V5, but would like some input from this crowd as to what $200 (or less) can get me for my...
