    Still looking for Amp for K1000, Cyrus?

    I also searched for some used equipment, and found some Cyrus III's for really low prices. Does anyone ever tried them with this amp?   It seems the prices in the used market are now exceptionally low for hifi.

    AKG K1000 Bass: decent or lacking?

    I am actually pleasently surprised by the K1000's bass, when people said it was attenuated I actually thought it really was (like a K701 for instance), but I can actually hear all the bass that is recorded on tracks (I think until 30hz, but below that I simply don't know what is recorded, so I...
