    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    I don't own the Asgard any longer and I haven't gotten the HD 700 yet.

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    Thank you so much for this post and link. It shed some new light on my entire conundrum. The link was extremely useful. In the end I may end up with the Schiit bifrost/lyr stack and call it a day. Sadly there is not a way to try these amps out so I do depend heavily on the feedback of the forum...

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    Well the HD 700 is 150 ohms which does classify as high impedance. From the reviews I have read the lyr, wa3 and crack all pair with the HD 700 extremely well and help tame some of the headphones known treble peaks. Its just tough trying to decide. I think the crack has the best price to...

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    So do you think the wa3 will outlast a bottlehead crack? Is the extra price justified in your opinion?

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    You can power the HD 700 directly from your phone? How is the sound in comparison to being amped? Hmmm what a line up. Have you tried the headphones with any other amps besides the wa3?

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    I'm hearing a lot about how great the bottlehead crack is with sennheisers. How does it compare to the woo audio?

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    I'm going to try to audition them before I commit though. If I don't like them in the demo then I'll go for the HD 650

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    yes the hd700 are 150 ohms. I think I would rather go with the warmer sound because of the reported treble issues with the HD 700. Also what's the difference between an OTL amp and a regular amp? I know the WA3 is OTL while the WA6 is not.

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    Because I'm getting a great deal on the HD 700 that I can't get on the HD 800. Plus I want to get the black sheep of the Sennheiser line. The middle child so to speak.

    WA3 or WA6 for HD 700?

    Hello fellow head-fiers, I'm ordering a pair of HD700 in a few weeks and I'm looking for an amp to pair with them. I'm stuck between the wa3 and wa6. Ideally I would want the wa7 but that is out of my budget. I plan to also get a Schiit bifrost down the line but an amp is more pressing at the...

    Best Amp For Sennheiser HD 700

    Thank you kind sir. It appears a pair of HD700 are in my future. I previously owned the hd600 and have auditioned the hd800 in the past. I'm excited about this looming purchase.

    Shure SE846: A New In-Ear Flagship From Shure. Finally! (Impressions p26-28)

    It is what it is. The segment isn't going anywhere. Fact of the matter is people who want to and can spend the money on $1k headphones will. Others that can't will just complain about how expensive they are. These are made for people who will spend the money on them and trust there are a lot...

    Shure SE846: A New In-Ear Flagship From Shure. Finally! (Impressions p26-28)

    In Vegas at a company event. There were 3 available but they only had bright filters. I cannot stress this enough.. The se846 completely obliterate the se535. They are not in the same league at all. The bass on this headphone feels like an over the ear headphone. But its not like bloated...

    Shure SE846: A New In-Ear Flagship From Shure. Finally! (Impressions p26-28)

    Listened to these this past week for about 25min. These are mind blowing! Better sound than the K3003 unamped. My only gripe is the size of them. They have a lot of girth and to protrude from the ear. They do not lay down flat and flush as the se535. They aren't uncomfortable but you are aware...

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    I have settled on the signature pro. I love the portability. But due to being pulled over yesterday and getting an expensive ticket these will have to wait. Funny how life works like that.

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    I know this is pretty vain but the Signature DJ look ugly to me. I much prefer the style of the Signature Pro. I'm pretty much set on the SP. I want to A/B the SP with the LCD-2 and pick the winner

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    I'll check NYC to see if there is a place where I can actually listen to them all. Or at least the top ones on my list.

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    Hmmmm it seems as though its between the signature pro and lcd-2. Ugh this is so difficult to decide without being able to listen to them. I'm really stuck here. Hmmm would I be losing anything really by picking one over the other? The seem very close to each other. Is the lcd-2 soundstage...

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    I'm really leaning heavily towards the Signature Pros. The LCD-2's size is definitely putting me off from them. I like that the SP are portable and isolate well.. I also believe they will pair better with my current setup vs. The others.

    LCD-2 vs. T1 vs. Signature Pro

    I had the dt770 back in my early audiophile days. From reviews the T1 is like a better DT990/880. So these in essense would have soundstage and bass. Ugh I'm so confused. I wish I could try all 3. Is the soundstage bad with the LCD-2 or Sig Pro?
