postjack Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 Anyone have any feelings they'd like to share about this conflict? http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=233352 Basically Headphonia completely ripped off Dr. Meier's design for the Porta Corda III. I don't get any joy out of portable amplification but it was an interesting thread to read through.
mirumu Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 Yes, it has been an interesting read. It did seem like some favoritism was shown by the mods at times but I'm in no position to comment on whether it was appropriate or not. If Robert had actually turned out to be innocent it would have looked like a beat-up but that's moot given the outcome. Definitely best if things can be resolved without lawyers. If Kevin says the amps are identical then it's good enough for me. I wouldn't have bought a Headphonia anyway but I certainly don't believe in giving any money to unauthorized rip-offs.

pabbi1 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 Can i have access to 'The Casino', por favor? Ditto - if kg says the circuits are identical, no other sources are required.
n_maher Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Can i have access to 'The Casino', por favor?I nominated you ages ago (July 16th), but the powers that be haven't activated you yet. I'm sure it's just an oversight.
pabbi1 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Thanks, Nate - how are you digging the HA-2?
n_maher Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 I love it, I just wish I had a better than Mid-Fi source for it. Soon enough, soon enough...
en480c4 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 I love it, I just wish I had a better than Mid-Fi source for it. Soon enough, soon enough... Hey, go easy on the Denon! :'(
postjack Posted April 10, 2007 Author Report Posted April 10, 2007 I love it, I just wish I had a better than Mid-Fi source for it. Soon enough, soon enough... What are you running again n_maher? Is it the 3910?
n_maher Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 I run a couple of setups. (see updated sig) SB3 as a standalone (much better now with a new linear, regulated PS) or SB3 --> Denon DA500 DAC or Denon DVM 3700 Don't get me wrong, they all sound pretty damn good but I've unfortunately been spoiled by hearing a couple of really nice rigs in the last year. I'm currently working on plans for a standalone DAC to couple to both a CD transport and the SB3. I hope to have it done some time mid-summer. And for the record I'd qualify just about any of the sources I've heard in the sub-$1000 bracket as mid-fi so it's not really a dis on the Denon gear.
