i tried this last year and had a good response. the basic question is what headphones do you plan on buying this coming year? if you want to throw in a source or an amp feel free. it would be interesting to dig up last years thread and see what people said, and really turned out doing. i know i way overdid what i said i was going to do. i did get the audio technica's. but i went way beyond that with some stax 404's and just recently a new rega planet cd player, oh and i almost forgot the kevin gilmore solid state amp. i guess i way out did it........

Hmm...with all my christmas money, I'm gonna get a lot of weed...Oh electronics...hmm...mabye some of those headphones at bestbuy with changable faceplates.

Either new dynamic cans (sr-200s/etys) or I may end up going stax 404/313.

Well I've only been here for a few months and I've already spent over a couple thousand... so it look's like i'm prob going to try to get that "final" system and stop there ( he90, he60 , omega II , r10 , l3000 , ... maybe one of those). I really must say it's scarry when you realize how much money you spend. I find my self saying ONLY 100 dollars or it's ONLY 500 dollars to friends and they look at me like i'm smoking something. At lest I'm happy

... I think

1. Probably an amp for my RS-1. Will probably be Emmeline XP7 or RA-1.
2. Sell my 963SA and buy a new source....(maybe) I really like the 963SA but I hate the noise...
3. Maybe new speakers too. Like B&W 705, 805 or Dynaudio Audience 52 Special Edition.

Them Shure E3s sure look purdy.

 

[CrawlingEye]

well, audio-wise:
I'd like to get a Gallien Krueger 800RB for my bass rig, to quasi-complete my new amp. (2x Bag End S15X-D and the GK 800RB).

I'd like to get a Headsave MINT, Porta Corda, Headsave Tempo or Xin Supermicro.

I think I'll end up getting the MINT based on the price, I hope it's a good match with my trackmasters. I guess I'll wait to decide on that, until I get my trackmasters and see how my karma drivers them and how they sound with it.

Man, I've only been here a year and my system has changed over dramatically, I could never have predicted this.. heh. A year ago, I was using HD-580s (and during the last week of the year, I got my HD-600s) into a Headroom Cosmic that I got also in the last week (upgrading from the Headroom Little)..

But now?.. The only forseeable upgrade I can see is that I hear a pair of Omega II and overhaul my system for that. But from what I hear about R10's price/performance and though I love the HE90, I'll never be able to afford them

 

[evolushun]

the shure e3 looks very nice, i am thinking of getting those

 

[joelongwood]

More vinyl!

 

[aphex944]

AKG K240S or K271S.. can't decide

 

[itza2mer]

AKG 271 headphone.

 

[philodox]

good choice on the AKG 271S, I'm very happy with mine

now that I have them I definately have the upgradeitis bug though and will be getting a new home source and amp and interconnects and possibly a custom cable for the cans in 2004

Emmeline Stealth

But um... the $ is gone in 2003. Just have to await it's arrival in 2004. So I don't know if that technically counts as a 2004 buy.
