    Like you bought them and regret it or like you were given them and don't want them?

    They were given to me and I have WAY too many headphones already. (and could use the cash.)

  Massdrop Noble X's in the house! I was not expecting them to sound this good! Sounds like my K10's...

  Just received the entire Noble line of universal IEM's for the San Diego meet tomorrow. No Noble X's though. K10 Encore is pretty good...

  Monoprice M560 planars in the house...After 2 min of listening - treble peaks = harsh, sibilant --> painful. Lean sounding too.

    That's a shame. I suspect they have potential and will need to be extensively modded to tap into it.

    Is it the same for both the open back and closed back modes?

    First thing to figure out is if they should be open or closed... because they sure as heck can't be both!!

  Took a chance and ordered a pair of Monoprice 560 planar headphones. I can return them if they suck. http://tinyurl.com/hly7r7b

    Weird, I could not find a single review. There was one video that mentioned them, but nothing about how they sound.

    Aargh... stepped out of the house for 15 minutes and of course the delivery guy came while I was gone. Didn't know I had to sign for it. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

    Looks amazing and all but where is the seating? How do you actually get to enjoy something like this?
    
    Nov 2, 2016
  4. Out Of Your Head
    Didn't sound as good as I had hoped. Room was too reflective, like a church. Owner likes that sound though. There was seating on couches and chairs, but I just didn't show it.

    "Almost" doesn't cut it. Sink them into the desalinization plant or throw them into the core of the San Onofre nuclear reactor.

    Honestly, the only reason I keep them is that they are popular when I exhibit at shows.

    Mike has openly discussed the possibility of a tube phono pre in the Long Strange Trip thread on HF.

    That's why I have a feelin' that could one item unveiled, with the ADC coming late this winter like Mike hinted at on HF. f**k it, tube phono pre with the ADC built in !!!

  Hi Darren, I saw your post about the SBAF meet and what gear you'll be bringing. Just curious, do you only use the SRD-7 for your SR-009 or do you have a dedicated estat amp as well?

    I have a Stax 323A amp. I also have a Vostok DAC/amp that is pretty good.
