I try to get all my headphones terminated in 4-pin XLR, I have adapters from that into 2x 3-pin XLR, banana plugs and single-ended terminations. Any other adapters I get then work for all my headphones.
"The ETHER C will be priced at $1499.99 with a standard cable, and $1599.99 with the DUM (upgrade) cable, and is expected to ship within two months. It will be available with black carbon fiber cups, which are gorgeous (although I may be biased in this opinion, because I’m rather obsessed with carbon fiber). Those of you lucky enough to be attending the SchiitShow in Marina del Rey, California will be among the very first to audition the ETHER C, and I very much look forward to your impressions."
The Alpha Dogs are the same and they are incredible looking under the light. I have mine in black and with the new carbon black Ether C I am even more interested in the beauty of the design and performance of the new driver.
Now all you need is a "vintage" CD player hehe. I saw you in the other thread I posted about my EAD CD-1000
Well I just put an order in for the closed ethers. Mr speakers is doing incredible things and watching his videos he seems to have a lot of fun doing it.
Anyone with multiple amps want to chime in about how the amp/headphone interactions work, and what works best for you? I'm always curious to hear as we get asked all the time...
Make every day a fun day filled with music and friendship!

I want to audition the QPR1, its looks very portable and powerful. The two best balanced. Amps for the ETHER was the Ragnarock and the Mjolnir 2, with NOS Ediswan tubes The best SE amp for the ETHER is the Lyr2 with NOS Telefunken E88CC platinum tubes. If someone is on a budget the Asgard 2 does a real good job at powering up a ETHER.
Regarding current mode amplifiers, I was not a believer when I originally tried the Bakoon with the hd800. Then when I plugged the Ether into the CMA800 and was instantly impressed. Although the detail is there, the presentation is smooth, powerful and punchy. You can add a second cma800 to setup a true dual monoblock configuration. The reviews say that it makes the most difference with orthodynamics to go balanced. So all that I need is one more cma800.
