I have to say I am supprised
From the first note I heard from the unit I was surprised, positively surprised. I did not expect a $400 unit to sound that good. It feels like plastic, it smells like plastic, it looks like plastic and the ear pads are not that good, and ofcourse the cable is not the best, but the sound is surprisingly good. The electrostats are fast, full of "air" and very musical (in lack of a better word). I have $2000 planars that just barely provides better mids and highs, and that is combined with a $2000 dac/amp. The low end is not the richest with the 95X but most of the classic/jazz and female vocals are rendered extremely good. For $400 this is a bargain that makes me want to buy a second unit. I do not think there is a better starting point when it comes to electrostats than this Koss bargain.

KristianNI did an upgrade today, a very successful one. I replace the standard power supply with a high quality Linear Power Supply (LPS). It did a lot of good for the lower frequencies. The bass is way better. There is not a lot bass nor is it very loud, it is just better in my opinion.

KristianNHow many volts does the energizer need? I already have an LPS for the MCTH amp so I'm wondering if it I could switch adapters for my wire and not to blow up my CTH switching between them

HelpbotThe Koss energizer needs a 9V power supply. That is DC by the way.

KristianNI did an other upgrade yesterday, this time I changed the pads for Dekoni Elite Fenestrated Sheepskin. I just love the comfort and they seal better. These pads also gets rid of the terrible noise the standard pads make when I move my head.
