A friend of mine is waiting to get his he-1000 to use with the 2A3 mk IV and dp-777 SE. Looking forward to give it a try when he gets them.

@lojay : Thks  :money: but comparing a new challenger and a defending champion can be a bit biased. Maybe the best way to go is to give hours and hours to the HE1000 and  put the HD800 in a box before serious A/B comparison.

Wanted to make a subgroup where we could discuss sonics of HE-1000. Sometimes there are things that we miss. Sorrodje thought it would be a good idea if we could have a little corner to ourselves to bounce thoughts off each other. See what aspects we agree on and what we find different and the causes of those differences. A private area away where random people who don't have anything to do with the beta can't add their 2 cents is kind of the idea. Less noise. More signal.

That's very good idea. Definitely in when my pair arrives.

Lojay, is he1000 going to be compatible with fuzzor mod?
I'll have to check if the pads are removable.

Are you planning to have these make sound 24/7 for a while? Perhaps there will be some "burn-in" change. My HE-6s sounded less transparent and articulated at first and this pair I've got I bought new fairly recently.

I should have my HE1000s pair by mid week next week - DHL shows my pair is currently kicked around in depots in Hong Kong. I'm interested to join the subgroup.

Good idea. I should probably play it out of my computer's sound card to save the tubes on the 445....

By the way, are you getting HE1000? Are we getting any measurements for this headphone?

HE-1000s - in the house. DHL is the best this side of the world. Very prompt with notices, free text messages etc.
