Lots of interest here after closely following the HE-1000. I would love to participate. My ears are old, but well seasoned and experienced. I'm pretty sure my associated gear is up to the task and would do the HE-1000 justice. I am also up for the listening time, commitment and pen to paper to convey the analysis and experience. Thank you for your consideration.
Definitely interested. I actually just bought a pair of HE-560s to replace my Audeze LCD-2s. Fantastic sound and comfort (comfort just can't be had with LCDs). I'm loving them. If the HE-1000s are able to expand on that and keep the same great comfort then I'm all for it. Currently running the 560s off a Schiit Lyr, but will be getting a Phonitor Mini in a few days. My goal is to get as close to a speaker like environment with headphones since that's my sole method of listening to things. I pretty much wear headphones all day long.
As a side note, if you guys end up making some very efficient closed back portable friendly headphones I'd be all over that for my portable/work headphones.
Count me in if there are no better candidates : ) I'm not exactly a headphone collector but have previously owned HE-6, EF-6, currently own Sennheiser HD 800 which is my reference.
Sorry for the guy who has to sort through all of these LOL
MiFan said people in Beijing can also apply for this beta test.
I am currently living in Beijing, China. I am a active Hifiman fan in some bbs,e.g., chao jia tan.
So please do mark my name in the list. I have a Wyred DAC-1 LE used as the source and SPL Phonitor Mini to drive the headphone. People said SPL is not good for driving that kind of headphone, but please give it a try.
In the US and most certainly interested. I've got a Nad M51 DAC + a dual monoblock setup with CMA800Rs. Currently enjoy the HD800s and LCD-XCs. Also happy to test with my Chord Hugo. Cheers!
Interested, would be interesting to compare to my Teton/HD800. However,I would need to have a suitable Amp available to do the HE1000s justice?
Will probably wait to demo at a UK stockist.
