Has the K1000 an improovment using two box for the amp? (preamplifier and power amp).

You can always take a preamp on loan and try the effect... |

(I hope you will be here next saturday 13) I really would like to hear your opinion about my system and the first cans I would like to compare with is your HE60. Will be very interesting !!! |
