S/N 01591 reporting for duty!
Purchased on eBay / Austria some months back. Came with the black AKG box and the original extension cable and connection sheet. The foam from the top of the box had gotten into the ear-speakers, but a little VERY careful cleaning fixed them up nicely. I'm really enjoying them with a variety of amps; my favorites being a Sansui Q-3535 EL34 based PP amp and a pair of Crown D-75s running mono-bridged. Contrary to what I've read, the K1000s definitely DO have bass! It's all about matching with the amp in question. I'd love to try one of the Pete Millet ECC99 tube amps or a Bottlehead S.E.X. 2.1 kit, or maybe their 300B amps. Also wondering about the Transcendant "Son of Beast" OTL; it looks like an ideal match for the K1000s; anyone try one yet?
