Enjoy D&E!



Gonna wear them to bed tonight. Listened to them a few times at meets, etc, but never hooked up to a big boy amp in the quiet of my den sitting on a carved from one piece of heavy dark wood, ie, Ethiapon throne chair. Talk about synergy, primitive african chair, french tubes, Euro AKGs, Islay single malt...kids out, wife..wherever HEAVEN!!!

Wow, you are definitly gathering quite a superb collecion of goodies there. If you ever decide your ED-1 is surplus to requrements (it being for such a lowly system and all) I'll be happy to unburden you

With all those superb 'phones on tap, how do you decide which to listen to and do you choose on musical/'phone synergy?

It is a sick hobby, but a nice one. Like a merry go round. I jump on one horse then the next, all fun, no favorite, the ride is the thing the brass ring is an illusion, but the music and the ride play on and on.

Dude, you aren't kidding. These headphones are smoking!

I just got a pair this week. Still deciding on the proper amp to get for them, these are blowing my mind even with a Headroom Micro amp (which is a little miracle amp with the heart of a lion). I can't believe how awesome the K1000s are, simply incredible. The best part is once I find a few watts they'll be even better!

So tempted to start yet another "what amp for my new K1000s" thread, but that's been done quite a bit. Up for consideration are Cayin, Opera Consonance, Musical Fidelity X-Cans V3 (supposed to put out 1 watt), or throw some resistors on a T-Amp and take my chances (no big guns in that list as I'm trying to conserve on money - recently bought the Stax 3030 system and just got the Micro Amp).

Congrats on your purchase, from the looks of things, you got a great deal!
