  1. Woah! Very nice!

    Although I admit to fondling myself in the darkest of night to the thought of the KX-R and its many-chambered magnificence I confess I am quite interested in Mr. Doshi's creation. Any details on tube compliment and topology? Is there an optional or not-pictured PSU? Is the rectification tube or tranistor based? Details are scarce on this rare production, looking forward to hearing more about its sound at the very least!

    FWIW the KX-R is - from a purely mechanical standpoint - one of the most impressive bits of engineering I have seen in audio, ever. If the White Unicorn bests it in sonic prowess I am aghast at the possibility. Congrats and let us hear some impressions! ;D

  2. I agree the printing is pretty bad. I think it would look better with much simpler printing like the one on other EC products.

    Not very subtle. Still loving the overall style but for silkscreens I think a minimalist approach is best. You only really have to look at the lettering once or twice to know where everything goes.

  3. Very nice, looking forward to seeing the tube compliment... 6c33c would seem too big for such a small amp... maybe 6c41c like the original HD2. Unlike the initial HF responses I think Craig's amps have an individualistic flair that separates them from the legions of glossy black drone boxes that we have to choose from. Although I do prefer to see the tubes... (Think I can see one reflecting light toward the back.)

  4. Those are some manly heatsinks! Curious as to what type of topology you are using for this amp... I have a ton of these devices and no set design yet. If you still have a referral to onlinemetals I could definitely use one for an upcoming copper sheet purchase.

  5. The ZD is very nice with the L3000, I own both. I don't have a secondary amp right now for comparison. Like someone already said the ZD complements the signature of the L3000, in fact I wondered for a while how people could describe the treble of the L3k as "rolled-off." Both extremes are extended, detailed/articulate with the ZD. I would steer clear of tube amps known for euphony and smooth treble if you are planning on using the L3k as your main headphone, would probably be too similar causing un-synergy... don't know what else to call it. I am thinking that a good solid-state amp would be best for them. Alas, I do not have one to test this assumption at the moment.

  6. "The powerful opponent that in the foreign country in order for popularity to be high, ?now, three having L3000, the [ru] however, we want?, L3000 (also) it is in the person who exchanges the mail with Head-Fi! Furthermore as for 1 units balance conversion being completed?Somehow, the world seems the fearfully wide way, ((((; ゜Д゜)))

    The one where many have MDR-CD3000 even in Japan, burn!! Because, outrageous outstanding talent such as the person who continues to gather the cartridge of the professional baseball is the large quantity, if you compare to that, me et. al it is the nose flap young priest level which still starts gathering the surprise man seal, (laughing)"

    Not sure what this comment is saying for sure but there is definitely some anger towards head-fi/ non-japanese headphone enthusiasts buying up all the L3000. hehe

    Thanks for finding these reviews, thought I had run out of L3000 reviews to digest, forgot to do foreign google searches!
