woh Sep90 is coming to town...

wah this time really all the big guns are coming... HD800, i really drool.gif 

not sure whether that Coffee Bean can accommodate all of us...  what you guys think ?

Sep, if you are coming what sort of amp you are bringing ? Yamamoto ? got beta 22 for HD800, guess it too heavy
*
amps? lol like i will carry my heavy B22 and it's Q22 as well :sweat:not to mention Yamamoto is very very fragile and tubes r extremely rare and expensive those r meant to keep at home for audition
masuk custom sure kena tax 9 9 somemore need big thicks powercables and my exotic Ultra Reference crystal cables and LiveLine xlrs to connect
ImAmp will be my mobile amp ...just decently can drive the hd800 will bring my rcas to mini PC-OCC with silver/rhodium plugs
maybe will bring a maverick dac/tube amp since it is very small to notice but it will able to drive my dt880 like nothing at 30% to 40% volume
i need a powerconditioner if i bringing the maverick ....1 statement blacksand or maybe shunyata king cobra i will bring

I heard the K1000 properly.

Preferred the HD600 by a wide wide margin. Moreover, now with a balanced HD600 it is so much better than the K1000.

The K1000 is good, but it is no pleasure to listen to.
*
the strongs point for k1000 is the mids and imagining stage
mostly it depends on the source and amp
B22 with it the soundstage very wide and but lacks the lush mids/smooth highs i was looking for
using Gryphon poweramp for speakers to drive it and the source was Ear Acute Tube CDP and BlueNote Koala CDP thumbup.gif
mids was smooth and mindblowing and yet very liquidity full and did an AB with HD800 with it
HD800 have the depth of realism compare to K1000 which it seem lacking
but the impression of HD800 to me, it is still has headphone soundsignature but K1000 itself release virtually from headphones
more like speakers
btw u sold the k1000 to Steve from Texas? Dr Wood?
