    Parting with my LCD 2 Rev 1's as I don't have much use for open backs right now and only use IEMS and closed backs. Bought here on Head-Fi about 18 months ago I am as far as I know the second owner. Overall condition is good considering the age and the type of materials used in these. The wood...

    I too, like a few others lately, got impatient and bought a pair of Verite C from someone and then shortly after managed to snag a pair of LTD off of a user here. As much as I love these I can't justify owning two pairs of the same cans, so someone else should enjoy them. Included with this...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    I've had mine for about a year, been through about 4 sets of input tubes and 2 sets of drivers. Sockets still feel firm and durable, this amp is built like a tank and is an absolute unit. Build quality is exceptional, the wiring and solder work also looks very well done and of good quality. Like...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    Anecdotal evidence here, but I had no issues with noise with my EMU Teak's that are similar impedance and sensitivity to your Grado's. There will be a noticeable noise floor when you have nothing playing, if you wear your headphones often with no music playing it might bug you. The noise floor...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    @Pharmaboy I always feel it appropriate to return the favor so here's two that I've been loving today (Youtube quality but what can you do, at least the choreography in Heavy California is great :beerchug:) Heavy California It Runs Through Me

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Cheers for that, definitely enjoyed that listen on a beautiful and sunny Sunday afternoon down here. The more I listen to my Atticus I'm starting to really appreciate how amazingly well they reproduce instruments, they lack a tiny bit of the slam for electronic bass that the Teak's have but the...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Just got my pair of Rusted Zebrawood Atticus from a fellow head-fi'er this morning and my initial impressions are that this set of cans takes the best of what I loved in my EMU Teaks and the LCD2 Rev1's that I own and combines them into a beautiful hybrid child. Excellent punchy bass just like...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    I did try some tube rolling and the noise floor improvement was noticeable immediatley with the low impedence high sensitivity on the E-Mu Teaks. Unfortunately one of my 1950's Mullards that I bought is extremely microphonic and I'll be returning it but the hiss definitely got better with...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    First 24 hours with my new toy and I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised with the performance of the unit. I've been A/B'ing the Cayin and my Magni 3 and even with the slight hiss through my E-Mu Teaks (I'm suspecting this is the stock 12au7's once my pair of NoS Mullards arrive I'll report...

    ATTICUS and EIKON, the new dynamic driver headphones from ZMF

    Any Cayin HA-1A MK2 owners in here get to try this amp with both the Eikon and Atticus by chance? Looking for impressions on sound stock and with rolled tubes. I fell in love with the look of this amp and went through all 25 pages of the Cayin thread but am hoping more people have tried it out...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    This is what I was afraid I would end up doing, I love the idea of tweaking and there's a ton of tubes out there that are very affordable that seem like fun to try out. Unfortunately for me, the way I like to buy things to satisfy my urges means I buy everything at once instead of the more sane...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    No apologies, I appreciate the input either way. Just trying to gather as much information as possible to prevent myself from splurging on hundreds of dollars of tubes before I even receive the amp :beyersmile:. Think the play might be to get a pair of Mullards, Bugle boys and golden lion's and...

    New tube amp: the Cayin HA-1A MK2

    I saw there are some Atticus owners in here, I’m 99% sure this is my next upgrade from my E-mu teaks that I have currently and I’ve picked this unit as my next amp for driving higher impedance cans. Has anyone tried this unit with a mimby as a source? If so what kind of tubes have you guys...

    HiFiMan HE4XX

    Of the 4 amp's I've tried the he4xx's (Magni 3, Bravo Ocean, Micca Origen, and FiiO A5) the Magni and the A5 sounded the best. I swapped pads to Ori sheepskin's and have 1/2" foam mod going to boost sub bass and have them pretty heavily EQ'ed and even with a -6dB preamp setting the magni pushes...

    Monolith M1060C Closed Back Planar Headphones impressions

    This pretty much helped me make my mind up towards a Fostex bio-dynamic set, thanks. Now the quest for TH-X00 vs E-Mu Teaks and the different types of wood for tuning. How much of a difference would you say the Lawton mod made on the sound signature? Now that I have Ori Lambskin's I would...

    Monolith M1060C Closed Back Planar Headphones impressions

    I forgot to mention I ordered ZMF Ori Sheepskin pads and they arrive today. Going to try a pad swap to see if it helps the bass situation on the he4xx, but I'm not expecting miracles. Appreciate the quick response and opinions, I think from the information I've gathered my perfect set is...

    Monolith M1060C Closed Back Planar Headphones impressions

    Are there any readers in here that own both the 1060C and TH-X00 that can offer some some advice and opinions? I would be looking at purchasing a new pair of 1060c or a used pair of TH-X00 both can be had for the same price. Current gear set up is for desktop listening off PC Modi Multibit +...
