    AT w5000 + rudistor RP-7?

    Hi   I have enjoyed my m902 and AT-w1000x. and I recently bought rudistor RP-7 lite version.   Listen about 30 hours with rp-7 + w1000x, I found that the mid and bass is too much than m902 + w1000x   but the rp-7's sound is so good, so I have plan to matching rp-7 with w5000, but...

    AT HA5000 vs. SPL Phonitor vs. Yamamoto HA2 and ATH W5000, not really a battle, but still...

I don't have much time to write things up lately, so take it like it is and be sure, if possible, to try any of them, before purchase, cos they are not cheap, even...

    question about HA5000

    I was wondering if HA5000 is suitable with AT A series ? I currently have many A series [included A2000x] and plan to buy W5000 and AD2000 soon so as I stated above, I wonder if HA5000 can drive a variety series of ATs full-size phones.

    Question on HA-5000 inputs

    Just got my HA-5000 from jmcmasterj. I have not plugged it in yet. There are two sets of inputs on the back ... one is marked "AC Coupled" and the other is "DC Direct." What is the difference? Can I use both sets ... say one for CD Player and one for PC soundcard?

    I may be addicted.

    First true experience with high quality audio. I haven't been this happy in a long time! =)   Was skeptical but blindly went off the recommendations from these forums and ended up with the Darkvoice 3322 and Sennheiser HD650. It's AMAZING. Almost brought tears to my eyes.   First song...

    Convert open to closed?

    Is there any mod that can be done to give open phones (thinking of HD650 in particular) at least some isolation without ruining the sound? I keep trying to find closed phones that I like (mainly to block out the noise of my refrigerator), but so far none even come close to the awesome sound of...

    Philips SHP895 Appreciation Thread

    Hi I am quite new to this forum. I've been a happy owner of SHP895 for half a year now and can say they sound way better to me than my good ol' Senn HD590. The bass goes down lower, mids are not recessed and highs are not shrill. And the bass punch is better too. The soundcard I use is...
