Great. 3 people and counting..
Not sure about the time yet, but looking maybe in 3 weeks time. I've sent over 20 PMs to all head-fiers in Adelaide, still waiting for reply.
Venue should be around the city. I'l organize that. But suggestions are welcome

Thanks for the PM bbird1927. Pencil me in. Can maybe offer:

Cans: Audio Technica ATH-AD700; Vivanco SR 1000 ifl; Sennheiser HD25SP-BA; Audio Technica ATH-AD400; Elega DR-119c (vintage).

Amps: Little Dot MK V; PA2V2; NAD C352 maybe (yes it's an integrated but the headphone out sounds OK).

DACs: Mhdt Laboratory USB Plus Dialogue II NOS DAC; LiTe DAC-AH NOS DAC; Behringer SRC2496 (it's really an upsampler so it can also be used upstream of one of the 'proper' DACs, but the analogue out is OK (and it has a headphone out but it's rubbish)); Behringer DEQ2496 (it's really a sophisticated digital equaliser, which might be interesting for some people in itself, but the analogue out, like the SRC2496, is OK); Xitel HiFi-Link (if anyone cares about it, it's better than basic PC onboard sound I guess).

Sources (all SPDIF out): DIGITALpclink USB-SPDIF Adapter (TOSLINK or coaxial); Xitel MD-Port DG2 (TOSLINK); Sony D-EJ955 Discman (3.5mm optical out).

Other useful bits: 2 × Xindak XF-500 power filter; Goldenjacks inline attenuators -10dB pair and -20dB pair; Rothwell inline attenuators (nom. -12dB I think); misc. cables (nothing fancy although I've got a couple of fat JungSon JPOC-03 power cables).

Hmm, seems like rather a lot of gear now.

smily_headphones1.gif

Mid April sounds good. At least i have sometime to look for a place.
Any suggestion ?

I actually cancelled my order on W5000 after reading a lot about Denon D7000.
Looking forward to try stevenkelby's D5000 Marl'd,so i have an idea how D7000 will sound.
 
Mar 25, 2009 at 9:47 PM Post #12 of 21
I'm also impressed by D7000
what i listen to is D7000 + Rudistor RP010B + Krell Studio Dac + cdm4 cdp
this combination is unforgetable
with Graham Slee Solo, D7000 is also a lot better than 701, especially when listen to piano and symphony
couldn't wait for AUD going up and purchase one
 
Mar 26, 2009 at 2:25 AM Post #13 of 21
Tell me about it.
Regret that i didnt purchase more when AUD was 0.90 to USD

I've read a post sometime ago re: D7000, owner claimed its very close to speakers in terms of imaging. Find this interesting given that its a closed headphones.
