i don't really have patience to wait for one month. I've been listening to "cheap" sound from my 0404 for the entire month! Yes indeed the CanAmp is highly rated in Headfi (well you don't see much amps that spawns over 70 pages )

getting together got no benefit man; we still pay the same price. Moreover self-purchase at least has the slightest chance to evade tax

Heed Audio is willing to under-declare my shipment, so most probably the tax won't be over RM300. Oh well RM300 can get a SR60 brand new already

hehe, my 3 biji of LM4562NA arrived today. Damn good service man! From TsimShaTsui (Hong Kong) send to Singapore, then send to me via UPS! Oh well, what to do with it now since i still don't have my amp yet

MediaPlex or AsiaSound

Ampang Park iianm, few shops beside Music by Design

i think we should go to the carpenters to custom make some woodie boxes for our K701s, like K1000's one!

sorry for the misleading facts. My bad.

the wood looks low-class to me. Still prefer mahogany or paduak though. The box above looks like it was made from my mum's wardrobe door.

How can you say like that? Woody box pair with woody headphones, then MS2i and 325i use metal box?

Geez, our K701 use leather box or plastic box?

"Bumpo!" for an aging thread, just to celebrate the 2000th hour burn-in of my K701. Very special thanks to my buddy walabies, the K701 is so far the best audio equipment purchase to me.

Nothing special here, move on guys!

aiseh, what takes you so long to reach 2000 post?

HD600 may be more musical, just like how i felt that my previous Grado has an edge compared to my K701. Bass is stronger, livelier, and who cares about soundstage anyway? Moreover if we want to discuss on "musical" terms, what should be considered as musical? Isn't that depends on your preferred music genre? For example, rock lovers will find Grado and Alessandro more musical than any Sennheisers or AKG. In fact Ijan says his K701 is excellent on Jazz. As for me, i would say my ex Grado and my K701 are both musical, but they excel in different music genre.

Owning a K701 gave me a pleasant and wonderful experience. It is like God gifted me a baby, which i nurture her with love songs and romantic tunes. Watch her starts to crawl, watch her learns to walk, learns to speak... The evolution of sound was very obvious, and i would say now my K701 sounded so much better than the 1st day i acquired her. Bass is finally here, not as strong as my ex Grado but it is well present. However there's no denial that the K701 suits me better compared to my ex Grado.

Well, you do know that you might be the 1st lowyatian to own the K1000 don't you? Don't forget to post a review!

By the way, what headamp will you use to power your K1000?

Some picked Philips, some picked Grado... why bother?

So basically now the DAC1 is in Malaysia, and the K1k is in Germany is it? I'm interested to try the K1k but i don't think there's anyone bringing any speaker amps to the meet. PcWorks maybe?

It is 22nd JULY . . .

Geez man, what is wrong with you?

my bad, sorry. I didn't read through your replies carefully.

ijan eyeing on the HE90?

get k1k and lose my girl? So get the Orpheus i'll lose my mum too?

K701's new packaging? Oh well, it is still the same K701 inside.

removed my K701 earpads on Thursday, washed them in soap water. Freaking pads are so dense and thick, and it took 3 days to dry under the hot sun =.="
