"externals" would probably make more sense as "exterior"
"hoped to want this" doesn't make much sense; "hoped to own this" or "wanted to own this" would be perfect.
"the l3000 was able to be obtained finally/recently"

there! very good english though, at least you actually capitalize correctly, unlike me!

I felt that this headphone had done very accurate reproduction. I felt a cool sound similar to ATH-A1000. ●AH-D5000 This headphone strongly reproduces the bass a little. I didn't feel rich sound imagined from a wooden face. I like sound that is more colorful than this.

the only mess-up here is "strongly reproduces bass a little"; do you mean it doesn't have a large quantity of bass, or that it does have a large quantity of bass?

it's a shame that the d5000 doesn't seem to be rich; denon makes great stuff, shame their headphones aren't up to snuff.

but yeah, welcome to head-fi. sorry about your wallet, i guess, but it looks like she's been around the block a few times.

Those could be sold to pay for the wedding.

Hey, if the posters on this forum looked like their awesome female avatars, we wouldn't have to go to Japan for babes. Unfortunately, it sounds like the Japanese dudes do the same thing as a lot of the dudes here--wishful thinking. But if you're really women here and that's really your picture, please speak up and I'll be right over, (and Wmcmanus will be close behind).

I don't.
It is because nobody owns R10 by even my friends.
It is only here to see it on the site in Japan.

Your opinion is correct.

Your translation is perfect.
It is wonderful!

RH-300 sounds a very cool and speedy sound.
I like there.

It is surprised to hear that …………as I find that some second-hand R10 appear in Japan Ebay more frequently

In addition, what is your comment about the Edition 9?????

S/N of your L3000G is????

Besides Nina's total approval of your translation, it's really nicely written!

{I thought it worth pasting/posting for the PDF-challenged … and, surprisingly, there still are some.}

The Roland RH-300 [image] The package is vaguely business like and simple [image] There isn’t even anything as indulgent as a warranty card in this Spartan package. What would I do if it breaks… From appearances it looks very normal, but the color and feel of the materials are high quality. The ear pads are soft, and the headphones are very nice to wear. The plug is reliably built and there aren’t any cheap spots, very cool. [image] However, it seems like some day I’ll get a break (break in a circuit, often incorrectly referred to as a “short”) in this unreliable cord. Anyways, let’s start the audition as usual. Sounds such as vocals or cellos are placed in front of you and they have body, a very rich sound. (Perhaps it might sound so since the sound is a bit low) {< not sure about parenthesis} High notes have a somewhat thin presentation, but they are very clean. Violins can be a little too flashy, but they are very clear and sound good. It never sounds piercing. I get the impression that low notes are highly emphasized. However, unlike poor headphones, aren’t muddy. They are, in the end, high end headphones. Actually, I don’t know what to think, I get the feeling the low end has impact, but the rest of it is comparably flat. Even though the lower end is powerful, as a whole, the tone is a bit heavy. It’s not like it is dark, but that is the first characteristic that comes to mind. Every bit of the signature has clarity and leaves a clear, refreshing impression. Imaging is very good. I believe it expresses drum attack and guitars very well. On the other hand, depth and expanse are moderate. Being monitors, this is expected. They perform very well in expressing three-dimensionality and layered sounds. When I say they are like monitors, you may think that they are fatiguing, but I take that stance that these are monitors that are easy to listen to. One more point to mention is the synergy with the BCL. (I think he’s referring to the Lehmann Black Cube Linear headphone amplifier) The BCL has a slightly soft low end presentation, so I feel it balances the RH-300’s strong low end quite well. They compliment each other well enough that they might as well sell them as a set. LOL I’m guessing they will pair well with an HX-3 also. Man… I want an HX-3. The normal music recommendations are pieces with the cello or guitar as the focus. On the other side, I also recommend hard rock, punk, and metal. They have a somewhat revolutionary flashiness about them, a little like Ultrasones. My Chemical Romance sounded amazing, strangely cool. It’s been a while since headphones have made me feel this way. Pops or step recording types of music also have their individual components well defined and is a very refreshing sound. I like airtight (lit.) sounds but for people who get fatigued by the MDR-CD900ST and thus don’t really like them…. these should be a smash hit. For others, this may just be an average headphone. However, people who like metal or punk should buy these headphones in my opinion. After that, all you have to do is pray that you don’t lose too much of your hearing from aging.

From the look and description, the Roland seems to be some kind of rebadged Sony 7506 or 7509. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Those Roland headphones sure seem quite interesting. I've found a few online stores here that sell them for about $175. Anyone willing to take the plunge?

For my 1000th post, I present:
Nina's Victor HP-DX1000 headphone review!
This was a really detailed review, and was quite a challenge but fun at the same time. (any corrections are welcome as I'm still learning Japanese)

Summary: These headphones sound really great and definitely compete with other top end offerings. It has a very rich sound signature, but with well controlled bass, amazing detail, a glassy smoothness, and awesome highs.

Here's the review
Victor HP-DX1000

A very interesting pair of headphones indeed!

Excellent work, note for the rest of the story. One translation a week would work.
