Audiophile•Let's see yalls rigs.

Almost as soon as it was delivered Fostex TH-X00 sent out for detachable cable mod. Now safe back at home seen here with custom cable from Arctic Cables. And present day rig is now punching well above its weight class with Audeze LCD-2C and Venus Audio copper/silver 8 way cable. Still have the Fostex PH and added the M1060C. Sold off the AKG K7XX & Hifiman 400i. Can you believe I only started this hobby 4.5 months ago?

Audiophile•What was your Ah ha! moment in becoming an Audiophile?

I became hooked just recently with a pair of decent head phones. It started accidentally with some Bose QuietComfort. I bought them to focus better at work. I thought: Wow - these sound really nice! Started googling them and someone on head-fi said they were crap compared to e.g. AKG K701 - so I bought a pair of those in an impulse. And than it startet: Amplifier, Beyerdynymic DT990, Hifiman HE-400i, AKG K340 - very interesting hobby 😊

Audiophile•Massdrop x Fostex TR-X00 Purpleheart Headphones

I agree with Axiomatik. I have both-- TH-X00 PH and Hifiman 400i--as well as Sennheiser HD650, Oppo PM-3 and AKG K7XX. The 400i is a great headphone. But the TH-X00 is better for most genres other than classical and jazz. I reach for the PH when I want to rock out, and for the HD650 or PM-3 (tied in my book) for any genre. The sound profile of the PH definitely is U-shaped, but in a really fun way that's totally enjoyable . The 400i also is...

Audiophile•Massdrop x Fostex TR-X00 Purpleheart Headphones

I agree with Aaron on the sound of the Ebonies, I also heard them at the SF meet. I have far from golden ears, but there was definitely a difference between them and the PHs, and I am comfortable I could do a blind test. It was noisy in the room so I couldn't make a good evaluation of the specifics, but the Ebony was, for me, noticeably smoother and more balanced. No idea if anything else in the headphone was tweaked, but if not then the wood...

I'm using it with Beyerdynamic DT 770 250, AKG K612 & Hifiman HE 400s. I feel, Beyer+Teac is a very good pairing

Audiophile•Massdrop x HIFIMAN Edition XX Headphones

Hifiman HE-400i, AKG K701, Philips Fidelio X2 and closed AKG K550 mk I & Denon AH-MM400. Compared to HE-400i less bass slam and not quite as tight (is close IMO though) but more detail, more air between instruments, more balanced and refined. It’s been a long while that I last listened to K701s but here goes compared to K701 detail is there but it is not as ”in your face”, more bass impact and less pronounced treble, more balanced and...

Audiophile•STAX SRS-3170 Electrostatic Earspeaker System

According to me, yes, they are. I tried the STAX after Senns HD 280 PRO, Beyer DT 770 250 OHMs, AKG K612, HIFIMAN HE 400s etc. None can come even close to the sound and detail quality
