any improvement amping the little headphones?

won't even bother making portable amps anymore. stopped all development on the sijosae class AB a few while ago.

the reason that i've asked CooBra is because medufsaid mention that Futura mentioned that he found out that the KSC-75 improved a lot from amplification. he got a few of my sijosae class AB to be tested for a while. and the question is there to confirm whether CooBra found the same thing since he also have one of my amps.


try burning the unit for a few while. the highs could be smoother, with better bass definition.

the most annoying part in DIY amps is the 'lead/wait time'. the exact reason i didn't ask for a full payment upfront. one part missing, then the whole build is stuck.


burn that thing for a few days and you should be able to get rid of those annoying harshness. hopefully.

yeah, you should throw away that dark sounding HD650.

^ and chernloon, wants some teh PPA v.2 to test? they have too much details.
not bright, but too much detail. have no word to explain it. but on live recordings, you could hear so many people clapping, saying things, background noises. heck, i could hear people speaking in the background while listening to my Search-Unplugged 'Live Di Timur Jauh' CD.

naah.. varies with each setup.
kindda like shi# goes in, shi# goes out. amplified of course.

you need to have a good source, a good interconnect, a good headphone. plugging in a good amp into a not-so-good source, with a not-so-good interconnect and not-so-good headphone will turn out to be not-so-good output.

i believe the SHP-895 is higher end model. which is better sounding.

if i'm guessing correctly, the HD555 is better than the HP-895. guess you can't hope more at double the pricepoint.

naah, we use hamsters now. squirells are hard to source for.
