RS-1 is clearly the new FOTM.
In my experience it's been the permanent resident FOTM at Head-Case.
Do you know someone on APS that has a pair of RS-1s? I don't and have no plans to acquire any. I'm looking for something else though and it's definitely not an SA5000!
What APS are you referring to, because I have no idea which one you're talking about. I was talking about APureSound, who sold it as if someone was waiting for this thread to happen, or something. -
Is 20 gauge copper wire with poor solder connections really going to improve the sound?
ALO also changes the internals a bit, I think dampening material? Not sure, but it's not just a recable. But then again if you're not a doofus you should be able to do the mods on your own. Like the markl mod. Maybe the modded HFI-780 can become the world's second finest dynamic headphone with enough Dynamat.

Is it just me or does it kinda look like a sex toy?
Hardwooddildos.com probably inspired this piece.
-
I wonder how Ultrasone feels about ALO making such a huge profit from modding their failure.
-
Consider me sold. Now if only the RS-1 on APS would still be there when I'm ready for it.

Wow Elephas, that was incredible. Above and beyond.
And I'm with deepak on my HD580; I'm going to try balanced out of my VDA-2 soon but single ended, meh.
If I listen to primarily rock (all flavors) am I going to be happier with an RS-1? The AD2000 seems like a good all-rounder too. Or maybe I should just get both.
-
If I were to get the AD2000 it'd be around $450 in Japan. The K601 was just kind of going off the "enhanced K501" review I'd seen someplace, not really price-wise (around $200-250 used/new?).
-
Thanks for all the impressions; they're really helpful. Just wondering aerius, do you use the RS-1 with bowls or flats?
I've been pretty interested in the SA5000 and a lot of that was due to the looks, but after seeing all this it looks like I'd be best off sticking to the RS-1 and/or the AD2000. My MS-2 hurts after a few hours because of my glasses, but I'm probably going to get new ones this summer and I'll be on the lookout for thinner arms.

Hey, now, don't get me started. Duran Duran bring it. I got the special edition of Red Carpet Massacre.
Careless Memories is one of my favorite songs.

He's hungry like the wolf.
And he's going to get girls on film.

a real whale of a storm.
Is that real?
-
These models currently interest me for a future purchase, especially the MS-Pro.
If anyone has anything to say about these, input is appreciated.
Bonus points if you reference the HD580/600, K501, or MS-2.

I asked my roommate to get lighter fluid and he bought me butane charcoal lighter fluid, but it worked

I wear paratrooper fatigues, but no zippered pockets.

You know whats a good recording you might like-- Ai Aso & Wata - She's So Heavy. Wata is such a nice singer
Wow, I forgot I had that one. *enqueues*
-
More music. Good recordings are the cheapest and best upgrades
I put my music on shuffle for the first time in forever and it hit me how important recording quality was. It was all mp3, but the good ones were good and the bad ones were bad.

Maybe he wanted boom boom bass.

guess im the only one who finds her meh.
I can't dig the curly/short hair.

I feel all left out for never having heard a single Ultrasone.
I was kind of hoping the HFI-780 would be my intro to Ultrasone, and I was kind of hoping it'd suck so I wouldn't have to spend any money. Win-win situation.
-
Now if a certain someone was here he'd tell you to get it modded by ALO
But anyway, thanks for the impressions, loved the "They hurt" part.

I spent too long thinking about contacting that dude on head-fi when he made his final price drop and added "make an offer" but I waited too long when I saw that your little wiener dog beat me to it.

:rofl: -
Thanks guys, I'll go try and find Goo Gone and a lighter tonight.
What APS are you referring to, because I have no idea which one you're talking about. I was talking about APureSound, who sold it as if someone was waiting for this thread to happen, or something.
MS-Pro, RS-1, SA5000, AD2000, K601?

Ha, I only know you as the guy who works at (insert company here). Just wondering, what are you looking for now?
