donunus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 screw it. i'm going for the hd800s and going for broke on the amp later... I'll sell my volkswagen hehehe. I'll use my glite dps for now and see what it does then treat myself with a headfi (or headcase) approved $4000 amp bwaaahahahahaa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asr Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Ok well good luck on a completely blind purchase then, since the HD800's sound quality is still a giant unknown even with the early impressions from Jude and Tyll. I think it'd be an unnecessary risk unless you like experimenting with headphones, since you said you already like the HD600 (and if Tyll's impressions are anything to go off of, and they usually are, the HD800 apparently sounds quite different).

donunus Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 The hd600 is something i like more than other cans ive heard so far but they are far from perfect. They even need eq to sound neutral. In some parts, my stax 202 is much more neutral. The comments on the hd800 are really intriguing me. I'm waiting for a few more comments from the first owners before pulling the trigger though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fungi Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 If you like the Stax, why not get more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 If it needs sex-ing up, throw some Black Gates in there and call it a Maxxxxxxxxxxed CKKIIIIIIIIIII. Even then there would be money to spare.Unless the price of stencil paint goes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocturnalsheet Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 would love to get a chance to audition the wa6 if possible. they dont sell it here in my place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runnin17 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Thanks for the review. Would the WA6 have enough power to properly drive say a pair of sextett's? I have been trying to find some info on recommended amps for them and I cannot find too many threads that provide much info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadphoneAddict Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 It can drive my 600 ohm AKG K240M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donunus Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 If you like the Stax, why not get more? There's something missing IMO with the stax. I'm actually selling them or trading them with k701s plus some other cans or any cool accesories i might be able to use to match my brand new stax's price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
