The Headstage Arrow deal has just gotten even better, price has been reduced to 249$/175€....

Now i'm getting one for sure...

Right, that's what I paid as well. I think it represents really great value. With the $100-150 difference (to most other high end portables' prices), you're able to pick up a quality LOD.

Definately 199€ until now, although the trade in now doesn't accept 'any other make' for 40€ saving

Ordered myself one at the new rate today. It looks so good I may have sex with it.

how many of you are using the crossfeed feature?


I've played around with it some, but I'm enjoying it off more than not. It seems to mess up the separation to my ears. Things just sound a little more dynamic with it off for me.

Hi cn11, I have the Sony X and I'm going to get a MTP Copper in one of these days.
I know that the Coppers are slightly different from the Miles Davis, but I would like to know what is opinion about the synergy of them with the Arrow HE?

Thanks

The X/Arrow/MD rig is darn near perfect to me. The Arrow broadens the X's soundstage and makes it more 3D. Bass is more controlled and deeper, and there's more space between instruments. The MD's are revealing enough that you really hear these difference over running them straight out of the X. I think my search for the ideal portable rig is finally over with this setup. So yeah, the synergy is very very nice to say the least.

I find the crossfeed excellent for 1950/60ies hard-panned music, and for surround-downmixed movie stuff as well. But for well recorded modern music it's not really beneficial to my ears.


This has has been my experience as well (with any cross-feed on any amp). It's very nice to have for those recordings that require it though.
