No lah.... it just a normal system... Not that high end you think. Fook Lai

Hi Rameish, May I know roughly how much will the Porta Corda Mk II cost? Thanks Fook Lai

To cut it short, I got two source in my system. One is my PC which is using M Audio Audiophile 2496 and another one is Rega Planet 2k cd player. Both connected to my Lexicon pre amp(processor) and Bryston power amp. I am so sad because all of them using left and right RCA connection and none of them accept my headphone jack or 3.5mm stereo jack. Back to the question, how to connect my Grado and Koss headphone in my setup? Anyone can help? Fook Lai

sorry, forget to add in the purpose of the amp and the headphone that I am using. I am using Grado SR 60 and Koss Porta Pro, the purpose of the amp is a connection between my CDP(RCA out) and my headphone. I cannot find any method to connect a Left and Right RCA out with my haedphone which accept jack input only, so have to buy a headphone amp to connect them. That's looking for budget headphone amp only. Fook Lai

I saw someone selling this heaphone amp in singnet. Do you guys got any experience with it? How is the sound like? Do you think it will improve the sound generally? Fook Lai

Please pm me the price also. I am interested..... Fook Lai

After running 3 weeks, the boomy and harsh sound of porta pro has gone. I am very happy with it now, it is a very good headphone, recommend to you all. If you are looking a portable headphone for plenty of good bass, go for porta pro, you wont go wrong with it..... Fook Lai

yup...... no need already..... PX100 is almost as good as Porta Pro? Then PX 200 might be better than Porta Pro loh??? Fook Lai

normally I would think the source which should be cdp play the most important role for speed. Naim and Rega CD player is well known for fast and good rythm cd player. Actually others component do will affect the speed. Like the Grado SR 60 headphone that I am using, the pace is very slow compare to my just bought Koss Porta Pro. Fook Lai

thanks.... I wont have next headphone list in near future. I am very satisfy with my Grado SR 60 for serious listening and Koss Porta Pro for portable usage. Talking back to the koss, it surprise me after let it running one whole day without listening to it. The boommy bass is tighter a lot, the high also smoother a lot, the great difference is the imaging. The sound become bigger and the imaging is full of body now, i never think that running in headphone also can have such improvement...... Btw, blackadder do you mod your Porta Pro, some said cutting a small hole will get better sound, dont know is true or not.... Fook Lai

simply because most of the user review prefer porta pro over KSC 50 in the web. I wont buy KSC 55 in the first place because of cannot foldatable.... I know cannot choose in this way without comparing myself but too bad none of the shop can let me audition them.... Fook Lai

Thanks I cannot make comparison because I got no chance to audition both of them. I know their price are pretty close(actually both below $100 which is my budget). Both of them received fairly good review over the web, hence their sound shouldnt be too bad afterall. Therefore, the only comparison I can make is the size from the my eye. The Prota Pro looks smaller before I open it, but after opened it I found it is still quite big even after folde(not so pocketable like sony). Anyway, I am still listening to it now, it is getting better...... I made a comparison between it with Grado SR60, the result lead me to believe it is in different level. However, I am still quite satisfy with it for the money I paid and the feature it can provide when Grado cannot. Hopefully running more will let it getting better..... Fook Lai

Hi all, thanks for all the input. I bought the Koss Porta Pro in the end. Like the style and looks of the Porta pro over KSC 50/55. The sound initially is a bit harsh and bommy, now after running one hour is better, not so harsh and boomy. I think the only downside for me is it is not so pocketable. And maybe a bit bommy in certain poor recording MP3, I felt that this wont change after run in...... But I will keep running them and see how..... Overall, it is a very nice headphone, and it is getting better every moment.... Fook Lai PS. I am listening now
