Hello I am Hawaiiancerveza. Some of you may have seen me on head-fi but I came here to learn more about headphones/sound anything I can pick up that I never knew (which isn't a lot...lol). I currently live in Hawaii hence the Hawaiiancerveza. I have had my share of headphones such as:
-Shure srh840 (sold) I didn't like how the headphone made my head hot. I wasn't to fascinated with the sound either.
-Denon D2000 (sold) I liked the sound but didn't like the long cord. I had it modded by moon audio with the blue dragon cable 5ft long. I really loved the sound than and the mids were brought out a little more.
-Sennheiser hd555 (currently have for my wife)/pc360 (currently trying to sell)/hd-25 i (sold)
-Audeze LCD-2 (sold) I loved the sound but felt that the sound stage just hit the wall and ended. I got the Q-audio cable 5ft and it opened up the sound stage a little. Not quite as much as the AKG Q701's.
-Hifiman He-4 (sold) I liked this headphone but I wanted to upgraded to the LCD and was happy with that choice.
-AKG Q701 (currently using) Awesome sound, very neutral and I love the sound stage!
and amps such as:
-ibasso cobra (sold) Sounded awesome for my first amp!
-ibasso T3 (sold) Didn't impress me that much...
-NFB-5 (sold) Was good but took too much room on my desk. It was too warm for my taste.
-Vioelectric V200 (sold) It sounded great but the sound stage was a little to small for me.
-Lavry Da11 (currently using)I love the neutral sound. Some say its dry... I don't feel that way but that its very transparent.
Thats some of my hifi experience. I wouldn't mind hearing some stax ear speakers, or some other headfi gear such as the LCD3, Fostex TH900, and some other amps. But it sucks because I live in Hawaii and there aren't any can jams here. Other than that I am a college student trying to get my DPh in physical therapy. I an also a CNA and work with HOSPICE. For those of you who have never heard of it, I work with people who are terminally ill.
Some of my hobbies are:drawings, surfing, going to the beach, reading, playing some video games, hitting the weight room and playing sports.
Other than that I am just an average guy living one day at a time.
But the main reason I came here was to learn more about headfi things.
Aloha
