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?

QUOTE(mofonyx @ May 30 2007, 02:51 AM) Updates: Just sent my AKG K1000 to Germany today. Hopefully they will understand my English to return the replaced (old) parts together with my headphones. I have also requested them to return it to me before I leave for Malaysia. Ah I'm quoting this because I posted last in the previous page. Posting last sucks, always doesn't get read.This does not mean that I will bring it back. I may be persuaded to bring it home for you guys to have a listen if you'd like if there's a high demand for it so chip in to this forum if you want it brought back. I would also not bring it back if there isn't a suited amplifier for it. A speaker amp would do. I'm not being cocky or anything because I have a K1000, I'm just saying that if you guys really want me to bring it home to Malaysia, I will try my best because my luggage space is only so much. Moreover I have to take into consideration that Benchmark DAC1 that I'll be lugging back home to the UK. I'm sure you'll understand. Let me know   Anyway, yeah, K1000 is in Germany; it will be with me by the 22nd of June. The DAC1 is in Malaysia waiting for me to take to the UK. |

That is why I am asking if anyone wants me to bring it home. Are you that thick or what?
I will be in Malaysia for my summer holidays (24th June to 29th Sept). |

Na, you just have a tendency not to read things through.
I know when the meet date is, why did you bring it up? |

The K1000 is terminated with bare wires. So just plain connected to speaker posts.
Apparently it's very sensitive to DC offset and T-amps have bad offsets. Someone please come in and comment about this. Here is the thread I read about DC offsets http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.p...=AKG+K1000+50mV Added on May 30, 2007, 3:23 pmTo answer the other question. The K1000 is terminated with 4 pin XLR (male) single ended and it usually comes with a tail end, i.e. 4 pin XLR (female) to bare wires. This post has been edited by mofonyx: May 30 2007, 03:23 PM |
