Omg, I love PX100. I got one because it is recommended by ilounge back in the ipods heyday. I think I go through 3-4 sets of replacement earpad foams before it finally got problem with the cable. They don’t sell PX100 anymore?

I wonder what kind of EL34 that Dr. Gilmore use in his amplifiers.

Is it like a power purifier?

Share some pictures.. This thread could use some.

Just wonder, in those 12 years how many time have you change the pads?

Don’t worry guys, we’re lucky if the amplifier is actually released in this decade. Let our grandchildren sort it out with Justin’s regarding the modifications.

This thread really resembles the early stages of BHSE thread. Keep it up guys.

Where did you get it in Tokyo? Do they have X9000 demo unit too there?

Hahaa.. this thread will soon turn into a custom build one. Justin, is it possible to utilize my prized Dr. Gilmore’s hair to upgrade the internal wires to elevate its status to CFA3 CC KG Signature Edition?

I never do those discharge rituals. I don't think that it matters.

Just wonder what would you do with the replaced capacitors. They’re quite new right?

I don’t subscribe to that logic. Just because it’s cheap does it mean it’s ok to not do the QC process properly? When you put an AES input in your box, you have to make sure that it works before the unit is being shipped. Otherwise these 300 hours of burning in claim is just a joke. I know that...

Amos, I think the problem here is this Mix80 guy didn’t get a proper support from the brand. He asked for the schematics to AGD so he can check whether there is any missing component on his AES port, but he didn’t get satisfactory response from the manufacturer. Otherwise we would not have him...

Just wanna add that based on my experience sometimes the AGD quality control is not the best for a company that sells directly to the consumer. I have a Master 9 preamplifier that has a female 4 pin XLR connector in the right ACSS output channel instead of a male 4 pin XLR. Just in the right...

It used to be the default setup for balanced connection until it was replaced with the more economical 4 pin XLR. You still can find the OGs using 2x3 pin XLR Cardas Clear balanced cable with their HD800s. I personally prefer to see the mk2 amplifiers switched to the 4.4 mm Pentaconn jack...
