  1. I haven't heard the Diana v2 and it seems it's the measurements of those over on ASR that started this?  I think Amir at ASR is a d-bag to highest degree and I'd trust Jude's measurements over his any day of the week.  For those that know the history we've had with Jude that should tell you something.  The SBAF thread linked above by @Jon L about ASR does a nice job of covering Amir and his behavior so I'll refrain from piling on here.

    There's no doubt JPS cable prices are bonkers as are most 'audiophile' cables.  It's easy enough to laugh at the prices and move on, if people want to waste their money on them they are more than welcome to do so.

    I've been enjoying my Abyss 1266 TC (w/ stock cable :D) and consider them the best phones I've owned.

    It'll sit in a drawer until we can travel again so I didn't pay much attention to it.

    Don't you need to put them in the case for them to drop down to low power mode right away?  Otherwise I believe it's like 2 hours before they do it on their own.  Obviously if you can configure that time it's not a big deal.

  3. It's fun watching people freak out about the price..... Having said that the biggest question I have is the case.  Other than it immediately putting the phones in low power mode it seems entirely pointless.  Doesn't really provide that much protection and leaves the mesh headband (possibly the least durable part) entirely exposed?

    Then again I'm not exactly the target market here, this is for the Beats crowd who want a purse/bra shaped case to carry around.

  4. I have a pair of the Abyss AB-1266 Phi TC now as well and they are the best headphones I've heard.  I'm using them with a Headamp GS-X Mini and it drives them very well.

    I think people go way overboard thinking these need crazy amounts of power as 88db/mW isn't that inefficient.
