Interesting comments about the Headline, I recently discovered those Teddy Cap third party PSUs & apparently they're meant to be pretty decent for the price.
Back onto the Ear+, I'm hoping for great things with the incoming HF2

Since I haven't heard that many different combinations of amps and headphones it's hard to pass final/absolute judgements. The MAD certainly opened up a new world (not always necesarily better) compared to the Headline though, especially for the RS1, not as much for the GS1000. Come to think of it, I don't think I have tried my HD650 with the MAD yet, need to do that! Ooh, and slight OT regarding the PSU for the Headline, the only PSUs I have tried, and have, are the NAPSC2 and the Hicap (Olive). Switching between the two I could hear slight differences but not the "mindboggling" changes some people talk about. Maybe I have tin ears.... One funny thing though is that the Headline manages to drive my AKG K1000 a lot better than the MAD. I have the MAD Super which, if I'm not mistaken, has greater output (watts) than the regular MAD amps. Not sure about the specs for the Naim amp. The K1000 with the MAD is unlistenable but the Headline2 is quite decent up to a certain sound level but more than enough for me, sound level wize. Well, enough OT ranting, looking forward to further comments on the MAD/HD800/HF2! |
