All it takes is wattage

I got a new power amp for my home stereo - 255 watts per channel - after 4 hours of sitting in front of it with the aggressive sub-bass boost I was so exhausted from the bass rattling my chest I had to try it with no EQ. the bass was still unbelievable!

i remember with the SZ2000 using sub bass eq + a powerful amp would have those cans awful close to vibrating off your face!!!

The amp's frequency response extends to 5Hz so it was really pumping out the sub bass :basshead:

"I got a new power amp for my home stereo..." DESCRIPTIONS MAN. - DESCRIPTIONS! Name, rank, and serial of the amp you're playing with.
Sounds awesome Sir! My SZ2000s may be getting a new desktop/rack sized playmate, so I'm all about the happy when people are rockin' the sub to great effect.

I orfered the Fiio E17 a few days ago just got it and its awesome. However I mainly wanted it because it had the ability to send a line signal. I wanted this so I could use it with my Vector Research amp which can only take line out signal. What can I do to make this possible?

Use a 3.5 to Y split cable from the line out to amp.

Just get a set of ham 55x, swap the pads, give the hams with the sz2000 pads away?

Let guests that "You don't want to stay for too long" wear them!

Any of you guys test Innerfidelity hall of fame close back headphones with the paper test?
 
http://www.innerfidelity.com/content/innerfidelitys-wall-fame-full-size-sealed
 
 
In particular, the Shure SRH1540, Oppo PM-3, or the NAD VISO HP50?
Tyll really likes these headphones, but I can't trust him when he say's the headphone have plenty of bass. To him plenty could mean a slight tickle, not a head shaking experience.
 
 
I Loved my Fostex TH-900, but damnit, it was it open back. At best semi-closed.
 
I need a true closed back headphone & the Fostex triplets are a no go for that. The SZ2000 I owned also felt a tad too veiled for me. Looking for something with higher resolution like the Fostex cans.

Any views on the Ultrasone Pro 900 anyone? I'm picking up a set soon.

None of those pound. Heard them all. Ever heard the JVC HP-DX1000? The treble is a lot smoother/subdued compared to the TH900 but it's actually closer and has awesome bass.

I been looking to try a DX1000, but the DX2000 on the classified is a bit too much for me, especially since the extra price for it is just the cosmetics.
The ones on eBay are also all brand new ones at MSRP & the resell on these used aren't that quick from what I gathered since they are kinda of obscure.
 
I'm hoping I can find another used one, but I haven't seen one in a few months now.

If you find a used DX1000 is good condition, it'll run you ~$450-$500. So yep, you'd be paying $100 extra for the exclusivity and looks of the DX2000.
 
I like black and already knew I loved the headphone, so I splurged and got the anniversary edition.

Im looking at the Vmoda Lp2 and the Sennheiser Urbanite XL. I can get them at 110$. That is my budget, i dont have any FLAC files, and i listen to mostly hip hop, ill be driving with my cell phone. So, do either require an amp to get most out of them? Any advice on those, or any other headphones in the price range of around 100$ would be fantastic

@luckbad how do the d1000 compare to the th900, I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on the fostex but have the opportunity to get a pair of decently priced jvc's

I have had DX1000 and did not like the build quality.. If 900 is a good step from 600 i would go for 900.. (Sold dx1000 got T1 2 gen.)
