Good luck!

I bought another new dmp for my home listening. The other for office.

You can use this kind of adaptor to use 1266 via 4.4 socket of dmp. I've heard the performance of DX300max and DX300max ti and am quite interested in those new daps. Dmp seems to be out of stock in many countries. IMO, dmp is an unique source for sure.

Recently, my curiosity lead me to buy second hand DMP-Z1 for matching my 1266 phi tc with superconductor. I've sold all headphones except 1266, my favorate beloved one. Previously, I matched 1266 with WA8. I know there are many good amp options for 1266 but my decision of WA8 depends on its...

I totally agree with you. I thought my friend's experience is too odd to understand. This is the reason I asked this issue in this thread. Probably, It is his dmp's own issue rather than issue of Sony AS. I don't know what is the exact problem with his dmp but relieved with many hopeful answers...

Thank you very much for this information. I don't know what is the exact problem with his dmp but seems to be local problem or something wrong with his dmp's own problem at least.

As far as I know, It is discontinued this year. my colleague told me that he failed to fix his broken DMP at sony service center due to lack of part. I want to hear someone else' AS experience.

A friend of mine told me that SONY stopped after service program for dmp-z1 due to lack of parts. Any information here?

I had a Utopia, a D8000, an empyrean, a Heddphone, a lcd4 and a abyss 1266 phi tc in my office and compared them for weeks. I let go all headphones except abyss 1266. I bought another 1266 and set both 1266 in my house and my office, respectively.

Wow! new flagship is quite tempting! I want to add another VE flagship to my collections.

Just arrived #521

I think HF-2 would go well with tube amps such as Earmax pro.

I love my Earmax AE with HP-2 It sounds as good to me as my Aristaeus with baby orpheus ( I run only two headphones; one electrostatic one dynamic )

Look nice! great amp and great case!

I've used both headphones (701 and MS pro) with graham slee solo and have heard both headphones with GS-1 In my experience, solo is better matching wih 701, GS-1 is better for MS pro.

with pictures of gorgeous one
