Thanks for the suggestion, read through the thread in head-fi.

Looks like many ppl says that it has a synergy with W1000.
I wonder how it sounds like.
Its hard to imagine


Do you know what does low independence headphone mean ? how do I know if a headphone has a low or high independence ?




Btw, how can I get the best source possible out of a MacBook Pro to Yamamoto ? What cables do I need?



because IMO, MacBook is a good player.

y dun u get it from the dealer in lyn?

i own an AD300 and AD900.. AD900 is like all-rounded, everything jz nice and good.. as for AD300, i love its bass more compared to AD900's.. and for someone wearing glasses like me, AD300 is actually more comfortable than AD900 for long time usage, the pads are thicker for AD300.. i can feel the drivers of AD900 pushing against my ears if i wear it for a long time.. well, jz my humble and novice opinion la..

well i listen to all sorts of anisong, so that "all rounded"ness is what i really need. and yes, the pads are quite a problem for pro-longed usage. that and i sweat a lot too, so in general, i dont really like headphones/earphones/IEM etc. still, its in a way more preferable to home hi-fi since i couldnt get a dedicated AV room so to speak.

that said, an easy solution for the AD900, is to get the AD1000 or AD2000

low impedance headphone is example the ohm is below 100 OHM. Audio Technica woody is low impedance so that why i recommend this amp. Currently i'm using it is almost nearly 8 months. felt this amp is much better and improve more than my previous class A amp. Really designed for this ATs woody. If you purchase this amp it will come with Y cable (rca to mini). i think your mac is using mini jack. so it actually no necessary to get another cable cause the cable that package is from Audio Technica product itself. So is much premium i can say. nice cable which is also match certain portable player or CD player. Currently i'm using it with my Portable media (ipod modded) treated as a source out direct to this amp. Synergy W1000 really really musical. I can see you use almost a year mostly quiet frequent use daily? is yes mostly is good run in already. My unit is running for 3 years already. and reach to 2.5k hours run-in. The sound is much perfect for this amp. If you interested and want to know how is the sound, you may visit jaben malaysia at SS15 Subang Jaya to find out more. If not i can spent sometime with you to share my amp to you somewhere we can meet up. and subsequent you may have a change to listen another type of woody headphone that currently i collected.

AD1000 or AD2000? hahahaha... definitely out of question.. jz got my AD900 back in February.. and, i still need to train my ears b4 upgrading to a better headphone..

on side note, i really wish that there are shops here at northern part that we can audition the cans we are interested with..

w1000 sounds great, I love it since the day I tested it at Jaben. But at the end I still go for DT880 due to $$

Hi guys, audio technica m50 pair with which amp nicer ??? Hippo box or ordnance 22??

so far i got mine to pair with hippobox+, far better than than e5 or e7 for the sound quality..i havent manage to pair with ordinance yet

haha i got mine on march also. and i've listened to the AD1000 at jaben singapore, they also offered me to listen to the 2000, but i rejected as i'm quite poisoned by the 1000 already. dont see the point to go further since thats totally out of my budget (even the AD900 is already blowing my budget, but i just couldn't settle for anything less rofl)

if you're in malaysia, just make a trip to Jaben subang then

haha, same here! getting the AD900 is kinda out of my budget actually.. now aiming(saving) for a decent headamp..

would love to do so, get poisoned by the monster cans..
but too bad im staying in kedah.. quite far la..

i have to wonder, why would one even consider monsters when they already have an AD900 lol

mayb they have gotten use to 900 and feel like trying something more monstrous?

go ahead lol

yippie just bought M50 so happy omg

welcome to the club

good choice

Since you cannot try them for yourself, you might be upgarding sooner than later again after getting them and extent the small world...

Imo... the pl-50s are good, ADX00s are also good, how much better are ADX00s compare to pl-50s?
Imo... the pl-50s are very comfortable, ADX00s are also very comfortable, how much more comfy are ADX00s compare to pl-50?

AD700/ AD900 certainly do no have boomy bass compare to pl-50s.

Seem this year pcfair AT booth is not there

How much and where? Feel like buying it soon. How's the bass like? Looking for the best bassy headphone under RM600

I listened to it for around 3 days already and it just gets better and better.

Highly recommended. btw m50's bass, perfection
