You miss the point of my remark. The point is that he is worse than clueless in a sense.

So then are we in agreement that he's a clueless twat who's either gonna bitch about his new toy or gonna be crying about how his old shit was better?

i think the best thing about these headphones is that I can use them out in the field for my personal use.

ack, my work blocks most photo sites, so I don't know what elephas is talking about. :(

We're talking about invisible purple unicorns, that's why you can't see the pictures.

Oh my I am impressed Elephas

I like YOU.

The PFR-V1's cord is very short, and terminated with a 3.5mm plug. I'm using a 6.3mm adapter and driving it with the AT-HA5000. Source is the Accuphase DP-500.

Sound? Actually not bad. Good details, immersive soundstage, crisp treble, overall on the bright side, decent bass impact.

It does remind me of the RS-1, SA5000, Airbow SR-SC1 and yes, the K1000 and even the HE60.

I don't have an amp for my K1000 yet. I've been looking for one recently and tried it with a Cary CAD 300 SEI. The K1000 sounded very, very good driven by the Cary. I don't think the PFR-V1 is better than the K1000.

Other than IEM's those are the only headphones I've seen that literally look like they are going to rape your ears.

Or however that thing goes.

The "hooks" that rest over the outside of the ear canal has a hole where sound comes through. They rest lightly and I don't feel uncomfortable.

My initial impression is that these are not bad-sounding. I would consider it a specialty headphone, not a replacement for a full-size headphone.

Sound quality is roughly about the same level as the MS2i and below the SA5000, RS-1, K701, AD2000 or HD6x0.

nono, it's like this:

Hmm, maybe saying it is about the same as the MS2i might be short-changing the PFR-V1.

It does some things different from other headphones. It throws a very unique soundstage and imaging is immersive and 3D-like. Treble clarity and details are good.

I plugged the PFR-V1 directly into my 2G nano and it sounds OK. A bit thin and lacking in body, but still decent-sounding.

Ear shape might be a significant factor. I have small ears that lie flat against my head. When I pull out my ears and move them around a bit with my hands, the sound changes.

No, the PFR-V1 is definitely not better than the K1000. I don't think it's even close.

Are you using it with that boostaroo thing or without?
