Hi there, I have sourced all components and parts necessary to build the KGBH according to HeadWize - Project: Blue Hawaii Hybrid Electrostatic Amplifier for Stax Omega II Headphones by Kevin Gilmore but unfortunately I don't see me having the time for bulding this premium class amp. Anyone...

Hi there, has anyone had the chance to compare a high-end Wadia 25 DAC to the cheaper but highly acclaimed Dacmagic2 from Cambdirge Audio? 16bit, 44.1kHz CD reproduction only... Thanks much!

Hi there, does anyone have an english manual for the Lite DAC-AM d/a converter or know what the DOWN and UP buttons do? Thanks much! Greetings

Hi guys, As I am running out of XLR inputs on my preamp and only have one (amplified) XLR out for the mono power amps but need more in order to connect headphone amps without loop connectors, I was wondering what you guys use for XLR switching? Any recommendations for great units, maybe...

Hi guys, I have for my computer setup (Macbook Pro with optical out) the K701 together with Shanling PH100 and Lite DAC AM. Now, I am thinking what rig should I get for my main system and I am not sure if I should a) get a balanced amp (like the balanced Little Dot MkVI or NX-33 or...

Hi guys, I have a fully balanced Vincent SA-991plus preamp which outputs 2V and was thinking about connecting my balanced AKG K701 (64ohm, 200mW max) to its preamp output directly. Of course I would need an XLR male/female converter for each channel, but other than this, is this a good idea...

Has anyone tried the relatively new Little Dot Mark VI balanced tube amp (http://www.audiophilechina.com/cp-sh..._id2=2&s_id=24) with balanced K701 cans? Thanks for any insights!

Hey guys, inspired by the four channel beta22 amp, I was thinking about getting a second Shanling PH100 and using special cable adapters driving balanced headphones like the K701. Having two PH100 there are four channels in total (ground won't be used at all), so each amps LR will do + and -...

Hi guys, which is the best balanced cable for the AKG K701 and how difficult is it to open up the K701 and recable? I have seen balanced recabling with the stock cable (by Headamp) which means that the stock cable is quad-wire anyway. Is it ok to use that cable or is it (much much) better to...

Hi there, I have just ordered the Lite DAC-AM and after reading a lot was wondering if the Little Dot MkIV or Darkvoice DV 336SE would be a better match to my AKG K701 phones? I have heard that both are OTL amps working best with higher impedances, however everyone seems to be happy exactly...
