eh eh
dun be evil ler akabane
later he cannot sleep ler ......from imod to small caps then to audio hifi big caps......

akabane get yur w1k modded like this!!!
damm this is damm solid performance for an audio technica can!!!

want to know the soundsignature?
it beats my damm sened and my beyer by the highs and lows well mids need to improve but wat my friend told me havent burn in yet.....
but still cannot have the hall accoustics of my sened and senheiisser famous mids....
so .....r u prepared to scarifice yur w1k to become the best open dynamic cans........
and it is pair with it's favourite amp the yamamoto ....for the best synergy and performance wise....
damm solid bros.....i almost tempted to get it.....

no need to cry bros if u prepared to scarifice looks for the soundstage.....
well this is a shot of my friends's woodies cans.....

audiotechnica esw-10j,w-1k,w-5k and denon 7k and woodies senheissers hd650...(not in pics) team woodys
with yamamoto wood amp......
onli the cdp is not wood hmmm but i think my friend will go for wood encased cdp later......

esw-10 is more portable and sound quality wise is very good
they r excel in mids and have crispy high and good bass
well 1k well......unless u using for home,portable well is maybe out of the question for me....wearing outside well definetly get a lot ppl looking at me strangely...
but w1k is very refined,more soundstage and powerful than it's esw-10....if driven properly

i did

some of audio technica fans may not like it..
completely different from previous models....
laidback like senheiiser and more smoother but tout bass.....

nope it doesnt have the deep bass and soundstage of the w5k
very warm and not aggressive compare to w5k
w5k it can be aggressive or laidback on which music genre u r hearing with it

pair with a bigger caps and it will be ad2000 itself fully maxed out...

go higher guys
get yurself a balanced amp and watch the heaven open up and hear how the angels descent down
save up and 1 shot u will not regret it...trust me...

You use balanced cables when you're running a balanced setup. That is, specifically, when your source, amplifier and headphones/speakers use a cabling method that doesn't have a shared ground. When you run single-ended, you share the ground channel between left and right. Balanced strictly separates the two signals and provides another wire for ground.

Balanced operation was originally developed by Western Electric decades ago because of signal losses over long distances in telephone lines. Balanced operation is great if you have, say, 50+ feet of wire between components. Balanced lines are used in studios for that reason.

Balanced lines will also help with channel separation as well as reducing noise on the line.

However, the amount of benefit that provides in a home stereo is debatable. Most of the people who run balanced derive the majority of the benefit from using an amplifier that is bridged and balanced.

Bridging an amplifier gives you twice the voltage swing, twice the slew rate and four times the total power. That's audible, while very marginal reductions in line noise and channel separation would be difficult to detect IF you were already using high quality components.

Single-ended refers to an amplifier topology, specifically regarding the output stage. All amplifiers are either single-ended or push-pull, with the vast majority of amplifiers being push-pull.

In short sentence, single end Amp is like a Proton Car ulitilize on two wheels back....while Balanced Amp is like F-1 racing car on fully utilized all 4 wheels front and back.....which 1 is much more faster,powerful and and more ummph?

haha lazy to write so paste ler
ok back to audio technica topic

buy buy buy buy buy
an improvement over previous models and the mids is much more sweeter and more better separation than previous models....

lol u buy it ler
then u kau kau compare ler
it doesnt stop u meh since u got stax omega II
the strength of it's lies on the mids and better articulate and separation....vocals on it is simply breathtaking.......

u come to sg ler
i lazy to take transport to jb ler....
somemore all my rigs r here.....my full setup rigs...with my drawers full of snakes and nesting eggs....

well if u dun mind traveling to kl lol
my place maybe take 1 hour from jb to here haha
kl at least 3 to 4 hours lol

i previous had the anc7 b4 sold it away.....if u know wat i mean
sound quality wise well crispy high but loses to the es-7 mid's and lower end extension...
if u wan great noise cancelling effect then anc-7 will do it for u
while the esw-7 is passive close can but nevertheless it is a good can
up to u to decide

well i sold it cause it is a damm battery eater......and the sound quality well let say doesnt pass my expectation when i got my first iem.....
the mids and lows doesnt impress me much than esw-7 or the esw-10 superb mids and good layering
well it stated 250 ohms but i found it could be easily driven by my nokia n95 and my ipod alone when u actived the noise cancelling feature
