Worth? Don't think so... but I only have one T1, so I can't really compare as changing around simply takes too long.
On the other hand its very simple and I did the modification myself, so the costs were just two Neutrik XL4 connectors... no harm done.

It's a relatively easy change to do and making an adapter to go back to SE is easy, as well.
 
T1s into my Ragnarok sound dramatically better as balanced. I would attribute this to the amp, rather than the T1s; but it is nice to have the option.

Nothing intrinsically better about balanced.... only makes sense if you want to use a balanced amp .... whose balanced output is likely better than its single ended output.

Thx  Friends!!! I got it that its main use & advantage is rater being used up with a balanced amp & ITS the amp making the difference there.
 
Guys we all talk here about T1 , praise it, some wanted to purchase it & etc etc but sometime it also feels bad if something bad is being said there for your beloved Headphone .
 
Just check below mentioned thread it seems that the guy their (also never mentions his source & amp) but almost trying to thrash T1 in clarity & sometime in bass being blurry & sometime soundstage (also praising too) when compared with other Headphones.

Is anyone worried about the fact that the T1 has no removable cable?

I got a detachable mod - there are places out there that offer to do it if you can't do it yourself. The stock cable is thick and of good quality, but I just wanted the convenience of a shorter cable (got a 5ft cable) that made my headphones easier to store on a stand. IMO it's not a decision about sound quality, unless you're one of these people that puts massive stock by the SQ properties of different cables (I'm not), just a matter of convenience: I personally found the stock cable too long and inflexible. I believe you void the warranty though if you do a detachable mod, so that's something to consider.

It's ok as long as it's done by an authorized dealer/modder. Moon Audio and Sound Surgeon are both authorized by Beyer.

The T1 is very easy to repair should the cable go bad and the cable it comes with is pretty good quality, if a bit unwieldy. I never worried about cable failure while I had the stock one on, but I've replaced mine just for convenience. It does void your warranty unless you have the services performed by an authorized location.

Yeah, I've read this blog post before. The only headphone I've heard which he directly compares the T1 to is the Oppo PM-1 and I disagree with a lot of the comparison. He says: "he PM-1 is noticeably more impacting" - debatable; not to my ears. "PM-1 offers more clarity all round" - definitely not. The T1 has a "mildly relaxed presentation" - no, the PM-1 does; it's smoothness headphonified. I wouldn't let these kind of criticisms bother you - when you're talking about impressions, it's all subjective at the end of the day.
