Quote:  mrarroyo,  I'am most definitely enjoying it.  This amp is priceless    Quote: Kboe, I agree with you so much.

I just received my ALO Amphora #50 today and I must say this Amp is just beautiful, one thing I will say also you can tell the difference between a $250 amp and this beauty.  Ken and Vinnie you guys have done a wonderful job with this Amp.  I just enjoy listening to this Amp with my W1000x. Oh...

Quote: Crazy*Carl,  I have been using the  Optical, also use a different toslink cable than the one supplied.  I noticed a difference switching from the stock toslink to my kimber Kable OPT1 cable.

I ran into that problem once before, but just had to adjust the headphones.

It is custom made.

It could use some Rubber feet.

Ok just received my Sparrow Version A with the USB, DIR9001 and DA8740 Wolfson upgrade.  Just alittle out of the Box impression; it has more power than the Audinst HUD-MX1 for sure, also good Bass punch, nice wide soundstage and detail while listening to some Alicia Keys.  By the way i'm using...

Scrivs,   The Ultrasone 9 Pads add so much comfort to the HFI-780 it is ridiculous, these pads are so soft.  The only thing is you would have to purchase the Beyerdynamic earpad kit to get the center earpad filter or like Ken from "ALO Audio" stated try a piece of panty hose to cover the exposed...

Quote: Scrivs,   I love using my 780's with Movies and Gaming.  If you plan on keep them for a while you should really look into getting the Ultrasone 9 Pads for them.  These pads does wonders for comfort and looks, but they are not cheap $158. for the...

I ordered my Sparrow Version A late April and it shipped out on May 7.  

Good to hear that you are enjoying your Concerto.  Looks like I really need to invest in a nice dedicated amp.

1. ATH-W1000X 2. ATH-ES10 3. HFI-780 (ED9 Pads)

Moniseurguzel, Good to hear that you finally received yours. When testing could you use your wooAudio amp, i'm trying to make a decision on getting the WA6. Have fun.

Nice write up.

I totally agree with you. sokolov91, How do they sound with your Meier Concerto?

Really enjoying my ATH-W100X
