Nice collection. Of all the headphones that you've experienced, which one really stands out (money no object)? You state that the Grado SR-80 is the best pair of cans under $100, which Grado is your favourite? My all time favourite set of cans in my modest collection is the Grado 325i. I'm a detail freak and want it all. For closed phones, I use the AKG 271s. Again, it provides a level of clarity and detail that I relish (I listen to music for enjoyment, but also as part of my job--I teach courses that touch upon the geography of music, the sociolgy of music, and popular culture (of which music is always a major component). For knocking about, I have a pair of used AKG 301's which should be waiting for me on a shelf at work when I return from summer break (I'm a sociology prof and composer). What is your opinion of AKG headphones? If you were choosing a pair of phones for portable application what choice would you make? I'd be tempted to borrow my wife's Yuin PK-2's, but she'd probably tell me to go out and buy my own pair .

Any Chinese cans that might be tempting?

Cheers,

Allan

Welcome to Head-Fi! You might be new, but you look like you are already an experienced member!

Glad you're here - we can always use more serious headphone listeners.

What amps are you using with your collection? How about your sources? And do you like vacuum tubes?

Does anyone know how to say, "sorry about your wallet" in Mandarin?

WOMG!

...Well if you ever need to tidy up a bit, you know who to send them to

ATHFAN,

Welcome to Head-Fi. I'm surprised that you are just now joining in. I did look at your blog but since I can't read your language I just looked at the pretty pictures. Very nice collection of course.

I will give my opinion as soon as quickly

 

[coolchu001]

That is one insane collection. So nice!!!!!

Wow, wonderful collection. Nice to see a new member on head-fi that knows their stuff for a change.

What's that you have driving the 007? Is that a 007t2? I'd post the mandatory "007 needs more power" reply and suggest building a Blue Hawaii

007 Mk1 is definitely my favorite headphone, too. I have no idea what Stax were thinking with the Mk2. It seems that to eliminate the adjustment noise (which most head-fi'ers call "bass fart") they ended up screwing up the midrange and deep bass. The Mk2 is still a very nice headphone, probably the best currently in production even, but I don't like seeing a company take a step back in the quality of its products.

Oh, and where's the K1000?

P.S. I'd suggest putting each individual reply in the same post, so you don't have to spam 1000s of consecutive posts in one thread.

Great addition to the forums. I hope you grace us with your opinions ^__^.

 

[Pricklely Peete]

Man o man...nice stuff you have there ATHFAN.......nice to see a true audio nut joining the other nuts in here

I'd like to try out a set of woodies in the future, presently have a re-cabled (silver plated OFC cable made by fellow forum member) set of HD650's and an ancient set of AKG 240M's (not that great I'm afraid).

Again.. welcome, and enjoy the ambiance

Peete.
