Well that's not strictly true Jerry, is it?
After all, he blew his budget by 50%!

Looking at the review they have plenty of punch one the reasons why I do not bother with Can's these days as most I heard lack these quality

Jammy, Thats some set of cans!!! A lot of guys on Head Fi sing the praises of going balanced and re cabling to get the best out of they're set ups. Look forward to your impressions.
Mind and give them plenty of time to break in and you to tune into what they do. My 650s took about 200 hours to really settle down and just got better with time.

I must admit the Audeze LCD3's look very tempting let us know how you get on with them Sorry for the delay ive had a hectic Xmas & New Year.... But my new cans probably have a 100 hrs on em by now and i luv em. They make all other cans ive tried seem like a set of those cheap give away ones you get on long haul flights.......A bit naff. If you aint heard a hi end pair of magnetic planer type Headphones, then i can assure you that you will be grinning like a Monkey...!!! (I was and still am). I wont try and review em (webs full of reviews) suffice to say the clarity and natural sound is quite astounding. Q - Has anyone had any dealings with this Crossfeed Technology.......I would love to try this headphone amp...!!! www.highendheadphones.co.uk/sound-performance-lab?category_id=71 |

I'm not really a can man but your enthusiasm is infectious. I'd like to hear planar headphones. Did you get the Bryston amp or are you holding out for something better?

Dont get me wrong my current NVA AP10h headphone amp sounds very good, but cant help thinking that my new can's would benifit further by pairing with a top notch amp. Still on the look out - Probably something like the Bryston BHA1 or this.....etc etc etc It would be great to demo all this gear but just not possible for me up in the highland's.  |

Well ive looked long and hard for a suitable hi-end amplifier which will do justice to my Can's. And I can report that the web is choc o block full of purported reference / statement head amps from a multitude of manufacturers. But at last "Eureka ive found it"............... It's a 3 box twin vol control beastie from NVA. Cant wait, I will of course let you know my findings once it arrives. |

Twin volume? Is it due to a "double mono" circuit?
Does it also have balanced outputs?
I hope you enjoy it as much as your other NVA kit.
