Thanks a bunch man!
Anyways, I do really look forward to testing som high quality classic recordings with this set. Anywhere I can get legal flac music to test my setup?

Your welcome.
I use listen to Cd's orALAC files imported from my Cd's into my iTunes library.
I once tried Tidal Music Streamer for a few months, and most of there recordings sounded nice, but not all, and I couldn't justify spending $20.00 a month for the amount of time I used it.
 
Glad you asked about the amplification ation, I managed to hunt down a national dealer/retailer for the Bakoon hda 5210 mk3.
I received a very fine deal for the top end version and should say I'am astonished by its performance with all my headphones including the hd800.
And I don't come from a bad amp - Leben CS300X.
So for me to say this, it's a pretty big deal.

I should point out though, that the rest of my music chain is pristine, have put a lot of effort into it, so good amplification is just the tip of the iceberg.

Very nice, and congratulations on the Bakoon, glad your enjoying it with all of your HP's.

Wear them to the event! If anyone asks, you are just field testing some shiny new high tech electronic blinders for the big race!

No hurry Worm, it will take a month or so to save up and sell a couple items. What is the wait time on new ones?

Just wanted to say: These headphones are AWESOME for watching movies/series during late night sessions! The dynamics are perfect for dialogues, even at low volumes, and when intensive orchestral music suddenly kicks in, my jaws drop as the bass and general soundstage gives me that oooohhhh feeling. Like always with these though, I tend to hear even the smallest imperfections, or even interference if running directly from headphone out on the lcd, but I guess that comes with the territory :wink:

Thats it!

There was a loud blast of static noise through my PS1000e yesterday and it caused the left driver to sound louder (After many many blind tests with mono tracks).
I am destroyed. I really really liked this particular pair. I am afraid that if i will send them for driver replacement they may not have the same sound signature.
What do you think? I am really broken right now
