If I could afford it, I'd buy a second set of these in a heartbeat! I come to
headphones from a fairly extreme DIY horn speaker/transmitting triode/vinyl
background. These are the first set of headphones I've owned (I have Senn
600s, RS-1s, and K-1000s) that I'm actually exited about. Over the years, I"ve built about 20 tube amps, including the big GM70 K-1000 amp pictured
in the "Mayberry on Acid" meet thread. But when I got the DX1000 I had to
build one more. My approach was to go all low gain directly heated triodes,
using a 112a gain stage directly coupled into a transformer loaded 71a power
amp. Not much gain,but not much needed. the DX1000 are very sensitive.
There"s a picture of this amp and its power supply "twin" on the HeadRoom
forum in the "HeadRoom in Los Angeles" thread. Sorry, I don't have a digital
camera, so no pictures of my own. I'll bring this amp and the DX1000 to the
2009 L.A. International. Be interested to see what you all think! Please excuse
my awkward typing and forum use.
