Bought a new toy today at a great price I have a friend that works at the Guitar Center, I never heard of these before and they sound really good. They target consumer is audiophiles.

Yeah, it seemed that way to me too so I figured what the heck. Sorry if it was bad form asking here. I've been hanging around the lab a bit and felt I'd get an opinion from some reasonable people here.

Wow the Technics RP-DH1200 sound pretty good out of the box, nice balanced sound with some extra midbass.

Relax dude, but have you posted your lab? 

 

[acain]

Yeah we need to see da lab, were is the council when you need them LOL

  I'd like to get an opinion from you guys if I could. I have the DX50 and listen to FLAC files almost exclusively; maybe 5% of my files are 320k mp3. Music I listen to is ..... let's say eclectic ; anything from Sarah McLachlan to The Misfits and everything in between. Most of my listening is through TF10s with a Null Audio - Brevity cable ; with this setup I want for nothing soundwise. I'm looking to get , actually I've ordered, the V Moda m80. Was looking for an over ear with a similar sound but not quite as much isolation. Figured for the $79 they are going for on Amazon it was hard to go wrong ; or did I? 

 
Welcome to the lab.  I haven't heard the M80, and chances are that quite a few others here haven't either (otherwise one of us would have replied).  Also - we don't really know what your preferences are - so it's pretty hard to give you advice.
 
Feel free to hang out here - great bunch of guys.  But for a better answer to your question, you could perhaps try the M80 thread
 
One other thing - I often see posts like yours and have to chuckle to myself.  You don't need us to comment.  You've already bought them. Any advice we give is useless at this point anyway.  How about instead - you really look forward to listening to a new headphone, and then come back in a while and let us know how you like them.  That would be far more constructive, and we'd look forward to hearing what you think of them

I had to buy a RCA to 3.5mm cable, the Guitar Center actually has some nice cables I purchased a 3ft cable made with Mogami wire with Amphenol connectors for $20. I love Amphenol connectors I bought a crap load at one point and reterminated a lot of my interconnects.

I was just reinforcing you point, you missed the joke

 

 
 
 

It just kind of worked out that way. I still love Chinese Asian thread but it got bogged down by a couple A-holes for a while (who are now banned). I think this thread just became home/hangout spot for a lot of good people.

 
This thread has much better banter anyway!

My night time Lab, I have been using this portable A200 amp/dac every night since I got it thank you Paul.
 

 

[Brooko]

Glad you're enjoying it Adam.  I think the coolest thing about it was having it clipped to a belt, iPhone in pocket, and having brilliant control of volume etc from the A200p when out and about.

I freaking love it the controls work with my laptop also. It really helps with my Grado Sr225 bass watching action movies in bed.

The most important thing is how you like them. When they come in give them a listen and see how they sound.

Be sure to let us know how they work out friend. Welcome to the lab!

 

[makincheez]

Ok, ok, thanks for the gentle feedback guys 

. I'll let you know what I think of them when I get 'em. I don't have much of a lab but I'll throw down a pic then too.
