Just want to share something I recently found out.
I have always been intrigued by the AKG K1000, but having to match them with a separate amp always kept me away from them.
Last Sunday Blackmore was over and brought his K1000 with him (among other stuff) for me to try out.
I had asked him because I had the idea that my Rudistor RPX-1000 might just be able to drive them decently from the balanced outputs.
So I got myself a converter (4pin to dual 3pin XLRs) and I tried it.
It works. The RPX-100 drives them with ease and authority.
Needless to say that yesterday I all of a sudden happened to find a pair of K1000 for sale for a price that I could not resist.....
And now the K1000 smilie is bust!!!!
