Just received a set of the MiG 3.0 and placed them in the "Ambient" configuration beneath my DAC. The MiG, formerly under the DAC, are now beneath my headphone amplifier in the "Pin-Point" arrangement. Drop in the noise floor, improved sense of air/space and appreciable uptick in resolution...

I find the ["sticker"-modded] HD8xx* to be more resolving than the Clear OG**. The Clear are ahead in terms of bass presence and macro-dynamics [as you, too, observe]. (*) w/Audio Envy ToneKraft cable and Oratory 1990 EQ (**) w/NeoTech UPOCC hybrid Ag + Cu cable and Oratory 1990 EQ

How close? . . . and in what respect(s)? :blush:

UPDATE: The CablePro has definitely brought about performance improvements over-and-above the [outgoing] stock pc. Am using the REVERIE power cord to feed the EQUI=CORE 600 and noticing an appreciably greater sense of openness/space, cleaner separation/imaging and overall quieter background...

Personable, patient and prompt. All the makings of a Stellar Seller. The CablePro power cord arrived quickly, securely packed, looking--and sounding--great! Always a pleasure doing business with Alan. Thanks again!

If you want honest, uncolored, uncensored and musical sound, try the Neumann NDH-30. :beerchug:

I found the Utopia (OG) to be vibrant/energetic, not clinical.

In the interim I employ the S.R. MiG-specific "Pin-Point" [two-down, one-up] configuration but with a set of Marigo Audio Lab isolation cones [currently supporting my headphone amplifier]. Am quite impressed with the MiG isolators so far and want to acquire one more set such that each of my...

One of Ultrasone's BEST! GLWS!

Wanted to ask if anyone has tried the MiG, MiG 2.0 (now discontinued) or the MiG 3.0 Isolation Footers and, if so, what has/have been your experience/s. I am having excellent results with the MiG and just bought a set of the MiG 3.0. With the MiG (placed under my DAC), I am getting notable...

The EQUI=CORE 600 is settling down very nicely. Smooth, transparent and wide-open. Will be adding an upgraded [CablePro] power cord and Flux-50 NCF filter this week, hopefully.

What is it with the Clear OG? Are new units still being manufactured? I thought headphones.com was clearing out the last units--and that was a few years back now.

Has anyone else a/b-ed the MM-500 vs. LCD-5? And would you care to weigh in with specific similarities and/or differences?

The Clear OG take EQ very well. Have them running with the Oratory 1990 settings.

Am having excellent results using the Core Power Technologies EQUI=CORE 600 with my headphone set-up.

My favorite cables are solid core UPOCC silver.

Definitely let us know how things work out. For me, going from Wi-Fi only to Ethernet only brought about noteworthy improvements.
