AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
Well, after 6 weeks of anguish, my replacement K3003's should be here tomorrow. I can't wait to be back in the game! I will be relieved once I actually have them in hand, though. For some reason, they have my shipping address with the right zip code but the wrong city name. But UPS already...- RapidPulse

Whisky (or Whiskey) Fi
Well, if you insist. Just opened the bottle (of Caol Ila Moch) and am enjoying a dram right now. I don't want to draw any definitive conclusions yet as, in my experience, the first pour isn't always indicative of the rest of the bottle. But so far, I quite like this.- RapidPulse

??? Sorry, can't sign off on this. I guess I am not part of the "general consensus".- RapidPulse

Whisky (or Whiskey) Fi
I have an unopened bottle waiting for me...will probably break the seal this weekend. Sounds like a pretty good chance I am going to like it.- RapidPulse

AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
I wonder if there is some variance. I have no issues with the spiral dots (using the large). They fit perfectly and have never once come off in my ears...and they sound pretty darn great.- RapidPulse

Sennheiser IE800 IEM's
I agree. That is a bum rap. The K3003 has plenty of treble, no doubt. But harsh? nah. The K3003 does cymbals better than any IEM I have ever heard. Not sibilant either, when compared to something like a GR07. To have that fantastic treble with nice full bass and great mids is...- RapidPulse

Aurisonics ROCKETS: Impressions Thread
I am hoping that some excitement will return once I finally get my Rockets (Blue TiN finish w/mic...still not shipping) I have been very patient throughout, knowing that the delays have resulted in a better product. But right now, I''m afraid my patience has pretty much turned into apathy...- RapidPulse

AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
As you may remember from a few pages back, my K3003i's have developed an issue that I am trying to get repaired. I am covered under a SquareTrade warranty and they have been great. They have given me every indication that they will honor the warranty, so no worries there. I do have to provide...- RapidPulse

AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
Theoretically, yes. I have a SquareTrade extended warranty. But this will be the first time I have had occasion to make a warranty claim with them, so not sure what to expect.- RapidPulse

AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
Thanks! Hoping I won't have too much trouble. I am thinking now that the left dynamic driver did cut out completely and what I am hearing is just the bass from the BAs. That at least would make some sense to me. But surprisingly, I am still hearing some output at 40Hz in the left...- RapidPulse

AKG K3003 High End 3 Way System Headphone
Ok..the unthinkable has happened...and I don't even know how it is possible. I have had my K3003i's for about 11 months now. They are absolutely the best earphones I have ever heard. A couple of days ago, I started getting an occasional light popping noise while listening to Spotify. I...- RapidPulse
