Listening to Beethoven with my PS1k's from my 25lb Denon DVD-2900 SACD player being amped by my CypherLabs Picollo....absolutely stunning!

Why are you selling them?



Are you selling the ps1k?


The only reason I am selling my PS1K's is because I like the treble presentation from my GS2KE better overall. The bass seemingly goes deeper on the PS1k's due to a mild mid-bass hump. When I need to satiate my longing for uber detailed as well as fast bass urges I reach for my newly purchased Audeze LCD-Xs now. The GS2KE has a phenomenal bass presentation as far as detail, speed, and attack are concerned but are lacking in depth/gestalt. I find that the PS1K lands right in between the aforementioned headphones but because of that spike in the treble between 5-7khz I only listen to them with certain genres. I became a Grado fanboy for the way mids/vocals are presented by Grado's (specifically with my now sold RS1i), absolutely holographic and delicate. With the PS1K that treble peak can get in the way every once in awhile unless its attenuated via your signal chain imo.

I set aside some time to photograph my PS1Ks today and boy are they tricky to photograph just right. They catch the light so easily. Tomorrow I'm going to try my hand with the wood grain of my GS2Ke which seems more romantic.
