Am I crazy or do the Purplehearts sound darker without the sharp highs of the Mahogany's?   I've been going back and forth between the two and I've noticed the bass is warmer and more plentiful on the PHs, but not bloated.   Mahog's are definitely more sharp, not as deep bass wise and almost...

I currently have the EM-U Teak, TH-X00, AKG K7XX and I'm in the Purpleheart drop.  I've joined this Ebony one as well, but I suspect there's a little (read as a lot) of hype surrounding impressions thus far (Drinking the Kool-Aid).  From what I've heard just in the EM-U Teak's when changing to...

Hello all!   Just got my Teak's about 2 hours ago and I have to say I'm impressed so far, here are some free flow notes from my first listening.     Free flow notes taken: (I have played drums for 17 years thus the drum focus)   Crisp detail on the highs, not shrill Interesting, had to...

Woke up and saw it, I just got a pair about a month ago off here and I still almost bought a pair...   I then thought....  

pls.

Welcome!  Excited that your first project is the Fostex's XOXO's with removable cables...   

It most certainly does, I stealth edited my post up there as well to include a quick sound test.  I'm using the Asgard 2 and the BiFrost, which some think the Asgard 2 to be warm, but I immensely impressed with the AKG's for $200.   If you have 650's why are you looking at the AKG's...

Ignore what Raymond said below, they are absolutely warm, I'm sort of blown away surprised that you did find the 598's fatiguing, I will say that these are smoother than the 598's.  I would say keep your drop, you'll be happy.    Edit: Just went and went through a song on my K7XX and the 598's...

Rock and roll Fjrabon, I was thinking the same thing in regards to the Mojo, I'll take a peek at the DACport Slim now, which just happens to be on drop!

So I joined the drop on this, but I've cancelled it, then rejoined and right now I think I might just cancel this for good.  I have a BiFrost and a Asgard 2, but that's obviously stationary.     I'm looking for portability and quality, but I'm thinking this might be a little too pricey and I...

This is awesome, I emailed you!

Rock and roll, I may do that,they look extremely comfortable and seem to have high recommendation. Thank you, like everything I'll probably just end up reading all the past posts or skimming, I take a long time to make a decision but when I do it usually casecades (thus buying 4 headphones at...

I hate this website, been lurking for a long time, finally decided to join and in about 45 days I've spent just a tad under $2000 on headphones and equipment. Bought the Teak's, Purplehearts and just bought K7xx off someone here and THX00's from another Headfi'er, but question...   The...

    Thank you gents, wife and I are pumped, wallet is not.

lol reminds me of...  

Hey, I actually posted in the other thread that Keith started, whoops, but I had a question.  Is it going to be possible to listen to some headphones while there? It looks that way, just curious if the vendors will have some demos?   Thanks, look forward to meeting up!

No you can still do it, you have to order the Purpleheart and email them that you joined and they cancel the other order.  You can't do a refund then join though, you have to join first.

I can't find the exact spot I read this, although I'm almost positive it was MD, Will said there would be no discount at all.  I'm sure you're wishfully thinking that, but they have absolutely no reason to discount it, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if they put the price up (that would...

Just discovered the site and excited to see I'll get a chance to meet up with everyone soon, thanks for sharing Keith!

Hey HeadFi'ers,   Excited that I found the community and angry that I found the community :P   I joined the EM-U Teak and kept the Teak with the anticipation of grabbing the Ebony cups in addition due to their tonal response based on what Chan from EM-U said.....BUT when the Purple Hearts...
