They signed mine!
I don't understand F-A at all. Such a simple upgrade. How uncooperative of them!!! After all, it's not as if you had asked them to personally sign your ownership certificate :etysmile:
@pctazhp do you remember the Scorpions?

Hi pct...you were joking of course, mon ami?!!! As you know, fully balanced is no mean undertaking...anything else - as Glenn of Glenn amps says (and others lol!) - no point otherwise!...(not to mention some really hi-end stuff still Single-Ended!!).
But fear not @aqsw...you will be more than satisfied with her SE status lol!!...guaranteed!!...
(H1. I was certainly joking. I have long believed balanced circuitry in the desktop environment serves no purpose. And I'm aware of Glenn's view on the subject. The balanced cable that came with my HD800S will probably live out its natural life unopened in the box it came in.

I only have balanced cables, so I get pigtails made up. 4" long. Balansed to 6.3 cm SE.

Thought as much, mon ami...but you nearly had me there lol!...

Yo aqsw...I hear you re. the HP connection at the amp lol - would indeed be more convenient for those with balanced ends on their cables...but I can understand folks like F-A not believing the extra work/cost being really worthwhile ...especially when precisely the same thing is achieved by the 'pigtails' you mentioned......(especially when they're good quality ones, which I'm sure is true in your own case!!...).
I do put 4 pin XLR conectors on all my amps now but I don't think there is any improvement in sound.
Do this because people want it. Maybe it is a better connection?? But I can see it is not worth the hassle for FA and 1/2 the people will never use it.
