  1. Our brains are "wired" differently. Our ear canals are formed differently. So many variables. I wouldn't be bothered by the 6 items cos one can list negative attributes of HD800 in a small review as well.

     

    IMHO HD800 mids are kind of lean and could do with more body. One can never deny that HD800 is soundstage king. Very few headphones can match it. I find it impressive too but I also feel that it's kind of artificial at times. It all comes down to personal preference and taste. Take comments with a pinch of salt. There're always two sides to every coin.

     

    HD800 and LCD2s are two very different headphones catered for different camps of listeners. Some people own both cos they find them complementary.

     

    Just my 2 cents.

     

    Cheers!


  2. Received my JDS Lab O2 couple days ago. Have been running in. First impression is pretty good. Lots of drive, sounds "big" if you get what I mean :)) . Don't even need to pass 11 o'clock on the vol knob on my LCD2s at normal gain. Rather analytical, can be too bright on certain recordings. I'm getting very bad distortion when I switch to high gain even at low volume. Not sure if it's the opamp. Will roll some opamp and see.


  3. wah...like tt will be SGD 1k++ for mp3 player sia..lets hope it's really gd..time to change my creative zen m liao. Aron discount leh...lol

     

    I wouldn't play MP3 on it. It will be a waste of it's Sabre 9018 DAC. IMHO It's meant for FLACs and Hi Rez albums.


  4. Peak Fusion carries Grace Design stuff. Not sure if they have any demo units or not though...

     

    Thanks for your reply. Saw Peak Fusion as distributor for Grace products but no info was found when I went to peak fusion website. I was hoping one of the shops in Adelphi will carry the product ;-) You bought yours from Peak fusion?
