Another great review of the Dark Star from Headfonia:

He said he tried 3 different Beta 22's, John, and still preferred the Darkstar.
In that case I blame the source...
Well then we'll just have to beg to differ. Until I get the chance to hear a DS, I'll take the review with a grain of salt.

Even though you've never heard the Darkstar you just can't believe that it's better than a Beta 22. Lol
My source gear is the Esoteric P-03/D-03/G-0x combo. So far I only heard one headphone I liked better with a B-52 tube amp than the Dark Star; the Beyerdynamic T70. The Headphonia review mostly mirrors my own impressions.
PS: If you haven't noticed...John isn't a huge fan of any RSA products as far as I can tell from previous posts. Take it with a grain of salt.
Christ the B52 is huge...and gorgeous.
Actually, that is not the B-52 but the A-10, which is used for electrostatic headphones.
