Yes audio46 sells them but pricey unless you can get the 4.4mm at 1.5mIs it possible to get a balanced cable for the D8000 Pro?
Hey guys my first impressions are out on the D8k pro and wow it’s a winner

Oh yeah for sure. Especially if you are not running tubes. The ZMF line give you very lush beautiful mids as their shining feature, whereas the D8k pro is the absolute detail and resolution king but may be a touch dry. The VC has mids a little more forward so the vocalist gets a little more attention where as the D8k pro just presents the mix as it is.Do you believe the zmf verite closed to be a really nice complement to the Final D8000 pro?
I've really been wanting to purchase one to kinda complete my set of a closed and open back flagship duo.
Yeah for half the price I believe it’s better than the susvara! The Tc does beat it on dynamics and deep bass slam. However I feel the D8kpro is the best headphone on the market regardless of price. The bass jumped up a lot when I got the tubes in there and used the Bricasti dac which has a very robust power supply.I am also extremely happy with the D8000, which I bought recently. I do not find that they might lack a bit of visceral bass.
I listen to a lot of EDM or Dubstep, which can be very bass heavy. The idea of even more bass would probably kill my ear drums.
And I paid around $3000 for the pair after shopping around a bit. So for half of the price of the Susvara or Abyss TC, I feel I get the same TOTL sonic qualities of these two headphones, but for half of the price of these two phones.
I already own the D8k pro and I just purchased the silver cable in XLR(hasn't arrived) , I own the rme adi2 dac the newest version, the topping A90 amp. It sounds amazing no matter what but when I tweaked the dac a bit, pushed the ref level to +13 and kept the volume levels on the dac to 60-70% so there is zero clipping, I put my a90 to high gain and to a decent volume that's when they really came to life, they sound like a speaker system(presentation) along with everything you described. I feel more power makes them sound better.Oh yeah for sure. Especially if you are not running tubes.

My other headphone I considered as a compliment headphone to the D8k pro was the Arya. It is warmer and arguably “more enjoyable” on neutral dac/amp combos. Hence why I really advocated a tube amp for the D8k pro.
one interesting thing to note is thst I felt I could hear the room echo better with the VC...
But I need more time to confirm.
Hope that helps.
Arya sounds interesting I thought the ananda was closer to what you're describing. I was thinking of buying a freya+ or some sort of tube pre amp to add that tube flavor when I want/or need it.Oh yeah for sure. Especially if you are not running tubes.

I personally would go Arya over ananda in every aspect, enjoyment or accuracy related.Arya sounds interesting I thought the ananda was closer to what you're describing. I was thinking of buying a freya+ or some sort of tube pre amp to add that tube flavor when I want/or need it.
But that's an OTL tube amp usually those don't pair well with anything low in impedenceI personally would go Arya over ananda in every aspect, enjoyment or accuracy related.
The WA2 is a great low cost tube for the D8K pro. Pairs exceptionally well better than the WA22 actually
I am pairing the Final Pro with the Questyle 12 CMA, but I try to audition the Bakoon amp, as both amps amplify in the so-called "current domain".Yeah for half the price I believe it’s better than the susvara!

it’s nice to hear from you, what EDM tracks are you listening too atm and what gear do you pair with the D8k pro?
Honestly the WA2 sounds fantastic with it at the price. Sometimes I can’t believe how good it sounds at this price & this is before tube rollingHas no one tried the d8000 pro with a tube amp?
