Meier Audio Corda Headfive

[Roasty 0]

 

just received it this afternoon.. in the process of burning in now.

 

so far, wow, very detailed amplifier, lush midrange and abundant bass with punch! well worth the US$250.

 

when i get the time i will be comparing this with the Little Dot 2 and Ray Samuel's Hornet.

 

actually i have 2 headfives with me now.. first one i thought was lost in the mail since it was over 5 weeks since delivery date and i still hadnt received it. so Dr Jan kindly sent me a replacement unit for free last Monday, and this afternoon, both turned up on my doorstep at the same time.. will either be sending the replacement amp back to him, or will pass it to someone in Singapore who wants it and get the buyer to bank in money to Dr Jan directly.

am waiting for Dr Jan to reply me on whether i can sell on his behalf (he is currently away from work, dunno when he'll be back). in anycase, if he does follow thru with my suggestion, someone on this forum has already PMed me to get the amp.. man that was quick!

 

by the way, the other headfive is still in its delivery box, unopened..

Hi Roasty,

 

Do let us noe how this is compared to Little Dot 2 or Xiangsheng 708B.

 

I'll find another way to get it.

Limited Edition, ain't it? Only 500 units, and you own 2.

 

That's 1 in 250 units. Wow...

 

Just wish I could get it free, or some price with only double digits. Sigh.

am letting it burn in for a while before i do some serious listening : right now though, i think the LD2 has better 'slam', but the headfive is already much better in soundstage.

Limit for new users like us is US$500 lor but I blew all of it liao. Not much left, so I have to get the expansion account. But I was told that the limit will top-up every dunoo how long. (I forgot!)

 

Using paypal is the easiest. Got other methods like money order etc. More troublesome.

 

Roasty, I choose #011 but I regret, should go for #111!!

On my HD600, I prefer my LD2+ to my head five. LD2+ just seems to drive the can better.
