Hi all,
Thanks for our advice in advance.
I am looking to buy the GS2000e but am not sure if I should get the Balanced 4pin XLR option. I have balanced amps and portable DAC so the option of switching to balance appeals to me, however the balanced cable is not that cheap. Questions
- highly unlikely but anybody here has listened the G2K with balanced and standard cable? how about G1K? is the upgrade worth it?
- is it possible to buy the standard cable option and then retermitate the end to 4 pin balanced XLR myself? in other words, is the stock cable itself balanced? I have done this with my HD800 and TH900 earlier and the cost will be much cheaper than the $170 balanced XLR option from Grado,
Please can you comment?
PS: must say - these headphone loo awesome!
ThX!
I really dont believe, that there is any benefits to balance any headphones. Bet, let's just play along:
If you really do want that balanced options, you can allways use unbalanced adaptor for your mobile needs. It's very simpple connection to make, if you can do basic soldering, or know anyone who does.
