Pads make a lot on the k340. yep. And i can listen to them nonstop. And i dont use any other headphones any more since they are boring. ..well my k240 sextett is fun with 70s music sometimes ;)

Oh great to hear that you also liked it! ;) Well i was not wrong that its weird but you keep listening to it. on my living room pair of k340 i got those thick (10-20mm) sheep leather pads from aliexpress. its really a different soundstage because it has a elliptical around the ear hole and no...

here is some amazing live concert from Roisin Murphy and this song is really some of the most slamming bass i heard on my k340 :wink: the rest of the concert is also earcandy. The sound is all around you. And now for something completely different.. (no monty python sketch incoming) I was...

Also its lovely that i cant get at least 6-8 offers on german ebay for great to beaten k340.. Prices still pretty solid from 100-200 euros. For what its doing its bloody amazing since most people dondt give a F. for a "bulky plastic 80s headphone"... ;) In my apo i dondt care about the 2,5khz...

Electric counterpoints works amazing on them! ...Together with the mushrooms :wink: Regarding the coloring i use my own apo eq flavor on them. I think ill try my tube amps on my k340 since i havent used them for a while works amazing with this track here

Think before buying.... and buy many k340 ;) !! i got 3 pairs and never reget it..

In my homeoffice i have loudspeakers and i wanted to use headphones at night. Since i have 3 pairs of k340 i grabbed one with original pads and hooked them on a technics Su-V3 wich is also an underrated gem. I was pretty surprised because its like "holographic mode ON" if the plastic grills...

I really love all those interesting long K340 insights you did in the short time! :wink: It really is such a gem (i have them on my ears right now and luke vibert is slamming the crap with some dope acid tracks out of them, bass is deep as the Mariana Trench) I also use some Eq lift up in the...

simply in the headphone jack. i was actually surprised that those old amps have so freaking much power. a Atom amp was not able to make them loud enough in comparison... well those technics can destroy planets when i turn on the volume ;) ill try my tube amp also again if its nicer or not...

I have a tube amp especially for those but havent used it for a while. They sound amazing on a solid state 80s Technics SU-V3 or SU-V4X and on a newer NAD 356bee. Really insane bass on those! Magical as ever. with a good amp it really doesnt matter what you use them on in my opinion. i was...

Just joking ;) I had the Studio non Austrian Version still great. Well for me the 1980 K340 is one of the most amazing headphones and i also got some K240 Sextett with passive radiators inside. Your pair looks like new and even the pads look soft. Nice catch!

Great choice! Be careful to get the Austrian version! The Australien Version would be scam.. I had this headphone in my youth and its really great, didnt know i had something good.

i am not streaming so i though "well thats a device made especially for me" when i read the specs ;)) But i really like the RU6 more and more.. Works great with sash tres, sundaras have not enough power on this, but i was able to run my K340 "a bit loud" on this ;) I am glad i did not gest...

Well glad i didnt pulled the trigger on the used one.. found the same pictures and extra cable in a bay auction but thats from a different city.. I have one from amzn right now (wich i can send back) and well maybe i should check the rs2 if i can get my hands on it. Still amazed by the sound...

Yeah i actually forgot about all the specs of the hiby RS2.! . well since i got my ru6 used for 160 euros it was a no brainer if i would keep it ;) Paired with the Technics it sounds actually really good! i use a kadas toneboard normally on this amp. The SU-V3 beats the crap out of all my tube...

Hi! I was also interested in an affordable and flexible R2R dac an got my RU6 today. Headphones run nice on it but especially hooking this up on a 80s technics SU-V3 Amp and 80s speakers was the reason to try them out.. Well i like it! ;) It really sounds different than my Sigma dacs or also my...

EQing is like cooking with salt and spices. You dondt have to use them but i prefer to have my taste and enhance my meal ;) Totally agree with you

really got earcancer from the original ones and had luck with some chinese ones. I also got them on my k240 sextett and love em. Still enough magic ;)

Pretty good catch you got! ;) I also got into full k-340 mania and have 3 pairs of them. Its still the easiest place to find good pairs here in germany. Well that image you describe with the bride really fits what i also experienced. Musik sounds so damned right with them and you dondt miss...

Well i havent tried those ats-25 since then ;).. ill try that sooner or later. I asked the guy that build my amp and he said "no problem works with 6c8g but 6sl7 are the best sounding tubes on this amp in his opinion." So it will be no Problem and i have ordered a nos 6c8g from rca to try this...

Nice unboxing pictures! I stumbled upon 6c8g tubes and i wanna find out if the sound nicer then my 6sl7 tubes. A china adapter for putting them in my 6sl7 slot and lets see how it sounds in some weeks. Its so much fun to try so much stuff especially if those tube are not so damned expensive.

Yep! "made from england" made me want to get one. It was 30 bucks and pretty ok if you consider most new ones start from 30 bucks. There is so much 80year old NOS stuff you can find and ill try to get some stuff so i wont have the problem that iam out of tubes in the next years ;)

I tried something new today. Haltron 6sl7 GT together with RCA 807 Very nice so far quite similar to my Sylvania 6sl7 wgt in terms of clarity. Wich is then pretty damned good ;) really a nice pick. Should be a military version

Yes of course. An i have a third one i can also try and mix. My amp really has some pretty wonky rca connections that i need to fix in the future. Well if this doesnt work than its also no problem. i am pretty happy with the tubes i have at the moment ;)

Ahh its the RCA inputs that are wonky on my amp.. well some foam fixed this and now they work! Well but strange thing is once i put them back in after a minute one channel is dead again when i plug in the ATS-25 Thats some weird sht. Unplug and some 807 RCA in and everythings good again. Need...
