If the HD650s scale so well, when is it time to give up on them?
Just wondering. On the one hand I'm reading about how well the 650s scale, how the sky's virtually the limit with after-market cables and multi-thousand dollar balanced amps, and on the other I'm reading about people moving on up from their 650s to HD800s and LCD-2s. So I'm wondering: have all...- pp312

My comparison review of Stax Omega 2 mk2, LCD-2, HD650, and M50
The following was supposed to be a review for the Stax 007mk2, but it ended up including a lot of comparisons with the LCD-2, HD650, and M50, and I thought I'd post it here for those that don't follow the big Stax and LCD-2 threads.

Big expensive power cords "too much" for small headphone amp (older Headroom Max)?
Has anyone had this happen? I tried some massive high-end power cords on my 10-year-old Headroom Max (which still does a decent job on newer good headphones like Grado PS1000s and Beyer T1s) and they created this overwhelming pushy bass and sometimes piercing highs. Specifically, these were...- rgs9200m
