Thought it was an interesting progression. post #13
Dear all,
Can someone point me to an after-market headphone hard case which the SR009 can fit into? I still have the original wooden case but it looks too delicate to be used on a day-to-day basis.
Thank you
Look into the Pelican 1400 case.
I believe this will suit your needs.
Take care, the wooden box is breathable for a reason. My 007s got some mold on the leather cups after storing in their box (Stax aluminium slewed flight case). Look for an impact plastic and foam filled case and ensure it has a breather hole, and leave that open. They usually have a breather hole facility as it is difficult to open otherwise because of the air seal of the box i.e the lid gets stuck. And you can for extra security, put a silica gell bag inside the case somewhere. Keep the box in a heated room in your house (not the garage or loft).
I don't use one myself, but I figured since it's water/air tight dust proof and chemical resistant/corrosion proof and has an automatic pressure equalization valve it would prevent mold/mildew and this would be ideal for what he is looking for. Sounds like a really well made case.
I think you'll be pleased. Look forward to reading your impressions.

Well, My initial impression is "wow-what a difference"
The 007's sound like a completely different headphone with the KGSSHV amp. Much more dynamic, wider/deeper sound-stage. Bass is much more authoritative, and treble is more pronounced. Vocals sound life like, as do piano and horns/woodwinds (which I find are among the most difficult to sound accurately), I played a symphony that I'm pretty familiar with, and it sounded almost like one was in the hall. I've never heard any system that could get this close to simulating a musical event. I can't even begin to imagine just how much it would cost to get a regular two channel playback to get to this level of performance.
Based on members feedback, I would think the KGSSHV and SR-009 could be a little too bright for my taste. The SR-007 seems to be an ideal match with the KGSSHV amp.
Get a Yggdrasil now. Call it a day. Grab a Carbon later if you do feel so inclined.
Am guessing the T2 not landed yet. What amp are you using now?
Still being polished/anodized.I'd been using the Carbon. SRX seems a logical choice if this wait continues to break me.
