  1. Any one of these may fill the bill, but I'd recommend something a little more upmarket.. http://www.higherfi.com/spkrlist/speakerlist.php
  2. For metal music I'd recommend metal headphones. http://final-audio-design.com/es/muramasa-%E2%85%A7/
  3. I tried this : but had to settle for this:- http://splasho.com/upgoer5/?i=FD==
  4. So, the only difference is that the higher current units' sound signatures would be only discernible by dogs, cats and bats.......
  5. Would it be a good idea to put the current bias on the back panel eg. 5,5mA, 10mA or 14 mA etc...? Concealed bragging rights for the win....
  6. How come you don't have KGSSHV emblazoned on the front panel? Perhaps 14mA bias version with "KGSSHV - Mini Case - Max Power" would look good above the Volune control...
  7. You shoiuld have directed him to an audiologist or the other forum..
  8. Perhaps pigskin pads are indicated.........
  9. Putting lipstick on a pig, methinks.

  16. Folks, we've been trumped by this piece of teutonic wizardry which will trump anything here or HeadAmp builds - or most surely not. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Diy-kit-OTL-superlative-highend-tube-headphone-amp-for-dyn-electrostatic-/171368973396?pt=DE_Elektronik_Computer_TV_Video_Elektronik_Verst%C3%A4rker&hash=item27e6630454

    btw, when's the Mjolnir Audio website gonna show more than the home page?
  23. http://www.sonicsense.com/blog I tried some different comparisons on this site. The AKG K702 vs Sennheiser HD650 was definitely revealing. They use a you-tube like linkand they play excerpts of the reference track and the headphone reproduction as recorded from their dummy head alternately. The 3 I listened to were The AKG K702 vs Sennheiser HD650, The Ultrasone ED8 vs Fostex TH900, and The AKG K812 vs Beyerdynamic T1 vs Ultrasone ED10 vs Sennheiser HD800. As I was using one of my HD600's that was connected to my computer, I found that in the first one the HD650 part sounded quite noticeably laid back compared to the reference portion of the comparison. In the second, the Fostex TH900 sounded richer than the reference portion, In the third, my HD600 were not filtering enough plankton to discern any real difference between the K812, T1 and HD800. What was very noticeable though was that both the Ultrasones sounded abyssmal, especially the ED10 in their respective tests. Happy comparing, dudes. btw, Tyll may find their method of setting up the headphones for the comparisons interesting..
  24. Head-Fi has migrated to another universe where all opinions are correct except the right ones.
