yazz flute

Why all the hatin'?

Obviously not. I was just wondering whether anyone here had some first hand experience with this amp by now and what they thought of it. Hence the thread bump. And yes, I've scoured the other place as well.

Sorry about the thread bump but I'm considering buying this amp. It's been around for a while now. Any thoughts (about the amp)?

When one covets what they cannot have, there is always schadenfreude.

Jesus H Christ!

Move over Apple.

Dear Phiaton8053, I suggest that you give Head-Fi a try.

I still laugh every time I see that. Good times.... good times...

What he said. Attach a microphone and you can double as a sports broadcaster.

Pick your poison, drink it, put the LCD-2 on your noggin, press play, stop obsessing and start enjoying it for the flawed headphone that it obviously is.

I wasn't joking silly.

That's Mr yazz flute to you.

Den I gotta get me sum adem thangs.

I've only had mine for a short time but I just wanted to echo postjack's excellent review. The highs are just right for me but I like some top-end sparkle. The PS1000 has what I feel the LCD-2 lacks in this department, not to mention some air, which I just mentioned. I suppose it's coloured but I don't know what a neutral headphone sounds like. What I do know is that I prefer the colour of this headphone to some of the other high-end offerings that I've heard, with the exception of one Stax rig that I particularly liked. Could the bass be tighter and more detailed? That would be a welcome improvement but no headphone is perfect. Unlike postjack, I found the bass presentation of the Lambda's that I tried to be their achille's heel. Like postjack, I think that John Grado has created a seriously resolving headphone that's also fun.

There's a lot to like about this phone but it did sound a tad dark to me.
