Just simply—> drool->amazing packaging and presentation - congrats, I’m sure they will sound as good as they look. I still love my final d8000s - they are a treat.

zachgraz said: I really like the D8000 series soundwise but what keeps me from buying them is the high weight of 523g without cable. I do not feel comfortable having them on my head. They should address this issue instead of bringing us limited editions of almost the same design. response: Move...

This is the segment of the Head-Fi population that I'm really interested in seeing the types of reactions and comparisons from. The folks who've heard the OriGinal. How close is this to the OG? I've read some folks believe it's very very close and perhaps, in some ways better. Thanks and I...

14 Days In: I'm gonna tell you what, this headphone is simply a well balanced headphone in that the way it's reproducing the frequencies is spot on. I'm really pleased with this piece of gear. It's just got some nice shimmer in between impacts of percussion and transients. It is a...

Headamp, I need some ES-R10 please. Out of respect and appreciation for the HP heritage observed and respect given and as someone who believes the hype from the great efforts ES-Labs appears to have done here. ordered

So for several years I've been happy with my Benchmark DAC2 HGC but I had an itch so I pulled the trigger the other day on the Chord Qutest. Will I see an improvement? Look forward to trying it to my HSA-1B and the SR1As.

I just purchased the Chord Qutest DAC to feed my Raal HSA-1B and yeah, the SR1A ribbon earspeakers are that good - I'm all in. Thanks Headamp - I eagerly await. These Earspeakers are just emotional machinery and from the Benchmark DAC2HGC to the HSA-1B, the SR1As are simply on another level...

RAAL HSA-1b on it's way to me - Thanks Headamp! Based on what you folks stated, I believe I want an all round great amp for my HD800s, MS 3.2, Empyrean, of course my SR1A, and the rest of my stable.

I've been searching this thread for opinions on the hsa-1b amp but am unclear. Is it worth it? I have the jotunheim R but how much more improved will I get from the Raal amp? Thanks I could use one amp to rule them all!

This one? https://www.bakoon.com/product/amp-13r/

Yeah, this Earspeaker is very revealing so I'm going to enjoy it with the JOTR for now but it's comforting knowing that there's nowhere but up from here.

OK I've been putting these through their paces and I have much more listening to do before critical analysis but I'm gonna say that these ear monitors are presenting me with more detail from the ones and zeroes than I think I've ever heard from any head fastened listening device ever and it...

my stand only cost 50.00 - for carbon fiber, ss, and padauk wood-cheapo.

These bad boys have a wow factor, even for someone coming from an SR009. :jecklinsmile:

Guess what arrived? Listening to my SR1a's driven by the JotR but not using it's dac at the moment, using my Kann balanced xlr to the JotR balanced XLRs - it works fine. No early impressions - just hooked up. Physical impressions: very beautiful headphone with careful attention to details -...

I could possibly feed from my Benchmark dac? what do you folks think? I think I'll be playing but that's down the road some, I just want some of that ribbon candy.

I figured it's a start - not endgame - but a start - this is that kind of hobby - baby steps. decades of collecting - my stable is a playground. :)

Just picked up this bad boy. Thanks for the link - me likey a lot! Seemingly, it was made for the SR1a!

trigger pulled- hurry justin @ headamp - send fast - need my ribbons! ORDER #8455 Your order is on the way :beerchug: purchased w/ Schitt Jotunheim R w/ DAC

These are on my radar-something to use as motivation. Time to squirrel money away and save up. Target: 4200.00. And I’ll settle with the Jotr amp/solution. Historical- first ribbon drive hp- regardless, needed for collection. Have estats, dynamics, planar, now need ribbon(did I forget any)-I...

Should be here by Friday but probably won't get a chance to try for about a week or so. Gonna be fun. The Mysphere is a very special piece of kit.

Thanks to WooAudio.com, ordered bass heavy and transparent cushions just now - will report back - not that I find the MS 3.2 lacking anything, I just want to play. Now if only the Mysphere folks would create a supplemental case for extra cushion storage? Idea? maybe? Note: never did find the...
