So my Headphile modded HE60 arrived at about the same time as SRD-7 MkII. I knew the 'stats needed to charge up and stabilize, and the SRD-7 MkII hasn't been used for awhile, but the first half hour or so sounded like utter CR**&!
But after some warm-up, my previous plans to save up for Singlepower ES-1 is now GONE. My plans to eventually "upgrade" to HE90/ES-1 (whose sound I absolutely LOVE) is now GONE. So is my plans to seriously mod the SRD-7 MkII. My audio motto for this decade is in full force here: Do NOT try to "fix" what already sounds fabulous!
Unfortunately, my silent audio PC with Lynx spdif output decided to fry its Mobo last week, so I am forced to use the lowly LG DVB318 DVD player's spdif output into PS Audio Digital Link III, but even so, the sound is to DIE-FOR.
Due to my custom Almarro A205 MkII amp, which has an AKG K1000 jack, I am now able to compare the HE60 (via SRD-7 MkII), K1000, and recabled K701 all through the same amp!
