Not surprising, I've also been told by a friend that the RA-1 sounds better than headamp GS-X in some ocassions. Some phones do sound better on some simpler amps, I personally never liked ANY grados on PPA (the expansive soundstage and detail coupled with grado's narrow soundstage just makes it sound very, very, wierd), they sound better directly out of an ipod, even better on a pimeta with hard hitting opamps.

if on a normal ksc75 or much better still, bro PCdudes super mod ksc75 i would highly recommend the GV6 esp. now at usd60. its a steal for that price. then drive it with a 24v linear reg. psu and u'd be could be surprized.

however i did have a go with your franken philikoss and hmmm...im not even sure the GV6 can drive it to any meaning volume. perhaps when if u order the GV6, ask NORM to give extra high gain. thats the best and cheapest solution for u plus u also have a very capable porty amp to lug with u.

just as a measure of how heavy the PhilKoss are....

with my rig...i get ALMOST the same volume from both my DT990 and PhilKoss (PhilKoss slightly louder) with the volume knob turned at 10 oclock

too free in the late nite

here come the result
digging around head-fi forum

SennKOSS KSC-580



another insane mod
Balanced KSC75

what the....
there really is no limit to the ksc-75 modding
i wonder whats next
im thinking to make a philkoss as well... with my unused HP2700 and since i never liked it very much to begin with, the hp805 sounds way better. Might post some worklogs later when i have the time

edit,
i remember there was some hp805 mod some time ago.. cant find it, anyone mind to redirect me ?

Hi, anyone know where to get those sponge for kcs75? mine starting to peel off, i love this earphone a lot. Like the sound characteristic it produce.

Any other ear plug which have similar sound characteristic? kcs75 isn't that portable for me

oh my god.....balance version but is kinday weird liao...not portable..

yeah, i m looking for that as well...


but one thing i have to tell u guys,as what wala said

ppav2 make KSC75 shine

Anyone know where I can get spare earfoams for KSC-75? Mine is ripping apart...urgently...shucks it came off already! T_T
...guess I'm not the only one facing this problem.

actuallyyyyyyyyyyy......i THINK i might have 2 pairs...brand new somemore and almost never used coz i took them out for my Franken PhilKoss mod.

im willing to give u 1 pair.

BUT....im not sure if i still have them or not...need to go home and check...will update here once ive confirmed.

oh...and self collect either in PJ or Mid Valley only

Crazy sh1t right? PPAv2 + KSC75.

desperately looking for earpuff cover for kcs75.. can we mail koss to ask where to obtain them? i felt my kcs75 is already good enough without amp

amped or unamped is totally up to your own preference. If you feel that you dont need and amp and satisfied with it as it is, then my suggestion is, just leave it be and enjoy yourself =)

Its easy to get seduced to the dark side... and its no turning back once ur in

that's y i always tell my self it's good enough without trying any other alternative

yeah, fair statement, amp it is jz we wan to push it to max.

does anyone know where i can get the padding for KSC-75?
mine one kinda tear off already...

ksc75 long life.. haha
i was stunted by modded koss yesterday using yuheng's amp..
so nice. i never heard my koss sound that nice.

Which amp? The PPAv2 I borrowed him?

yaloh..
=P
u shall try it first
then u might not even send ur amp to him.

yeah, high chances.
