Dave R

Sorry if I've upset anyone, I think I'll just read the post other's do rather than write the same crap.

With me getting the Aristaeus and not being 100% happy with the 009's, when the new senn electro headphones come out I'm auctioning them with the BHSE and Aristaeus and if I'm happy with one, I'll be selling the 009's. I've just got the senn HD600's which at the moment I'm driving them with my Pico Slim and I'm very happy with the SQ from that combo. I'm hoping though that the new senn electro headphones look very similar to the HE-90's & HE-60's.

Yes you have but at that place I don't use DaveR.

As well as me having the BHSE, I've also got on order the Aristaeus + GS-X to which I received an email from Justin last week asking what colour finish I wanted the front panel/knob, [ I've gone for Silver ] so hopefully I'll have them soon. I've ordered those two amps to give me a change. I've also just got the Senn HD600 to use with the GS-X, though until I receive that amp I'm driving the HD600 with my Pico Slim and I'm very happy with the SQ, the HD600 is also the most comfortable headphone I've ever worn. P.S. I said I was very happy with the 009, but since then I've found there are some songs I listen to with them I'm finding uncomfortable. So after hearing about Sennheiser working on new electro headphones, I'm auditioning them when released and if I like one, I'll be getting it and letting my 009 go.

I've had the BHSE just over two weeks driving my 009's and I'm extremely happy with them both, especially with my source used being the K-01. I have learnt though that the volume has to be controlled, meaning some songs can be listened quite loud but others have to be listened to at low volume otherwise they're very uncomfortable. All in all I'm very happy with the BHSE in every way, it's build quality I put at least on par with my Esoteric K-01. Dave. P.S. I got to listen to the 007mk1's the other day driven by my BHSE along with my 009's and out of the two headphones I preferred the 009's. From headphones I do like detail and transparency to which imo the 009's will be hard to beat.

Because I'm a newbie I just wanted to make humourous my post. I am looking forward to receiving the BHSE but until that happens, I'm getting very good SQ from the combination I have now which is, Shure se535's + Pico Slim + K-01.

My headphones are the SR-009's and source is the K-01

While I'm not very good at describing SQ, I like to think I've chosen the right amps [ with the help of a certain person ] because where I live I'm not able to audition them. The two amps I've ordered are BHSE and Aristaeus to which hopefully I'll be receiving the BHSE in two or three weeks. When that happens does anybody think I'll be having more orgasms ? Dave. P.S. I wish I'd have joined Head-case sometime ago because I'm enjoying the reading.

Although I haven't heard the BHSE I do have it on order, I'm 15th on the list and I think Justin's doing 8 or 9 at a time meaning hopefully mine will be in the next batch. I've also placed an order for the Aristaeus so when I have them both I'll be able to do a comparison.

No I don't believe it has.
