New O2 + KGSS Rig

[tkam]

I've had the O2's since Tuesday bought was unable to use them till today when my KGSS showed up

[GPH]

Very nice rig! The OII is like a drug, I can't get them off my head and I bet the KGSS make them even more addictive.

[thrice]

Sweet rig tkam...... Enjoy

[deepak]

Welcome to the mafia.

Thanks

[PFKMan23]

Time to do the tkam!!!

[postjack]

Great looking combo tkam. I love the black.

It'd be great to hear some impressions from you, maybe a comparison between speaker rig and OII rig listening experiences.

Congrats.

Oh, and, eeeeh, if you should feel the need for a BH, I can help you to get rid of the KGSS.

Congrats on a terrific rig! I will hopefully be able to join you in the Stax world at some point

[boomana]

Congrats, Todd. Will be curious for your impressions while I wait for my own O2 rig.

[jinp6301]

Man, thats an awesome rig! Hope it compliments your speaker rig

I can certainly do that at some point but they won't be using the same source.

They are great, hows that?

Who cares?? Get on it, tkams!!

The OII/member ratio is growing pretty fast on Head-case.

From memory, there's me, tkam, postjack, Duggeh, spritzer, deepak, justin, boomana, kevin gilmore, Elpheas. Anyone else?

Just had to sell mine.

It really hurts to part with them but once I have money again, I'll be looking forward to rejoin the team.

[fierce_freak]

I'm considering it, though I'll need to sell everything I'm currently trying to sell plus some other things.

I am listening to me Omega IIs & Rockhopper KGSS as I type. Cowboy Junkies on 45 rpm Vinyl through this set up is some of the best headphone listening I have ever experienced.

[GPH]

Seriously, I never thought I would say that, but I think the OII is a pretty good deal for the price.

I see a lot of people on H-F rolling dynamic cans in the 300-500$ range and never being satisfied. They lose money in the process and end up buying different cans for different purposes. If they want to buy the really high-end dynamic cans (K1000, HP-2, L3000, R10, HE90...), they have to pay the same price or more than a used pair of OII. Sure, the electrostatic amps cost a lot of money, but the good dynamic amps also cost a lot.

It may not be the same for everyone, but with the OII, I don't feel the need anymore to buy another pair of headphones. It covers all the genres of music that I listen very well, it sounds realistic (for headphones), it's incredibly detailed, it's comfortable and it scales well with good equipment. I have not heard the R10, HE90, and L3000, but at the prohibitive prices they sell, I'm not interested.

Anyway, all that to say that the OII rocks.

[luvdunhill]

listening to my hopped up KGSS and SR-007 right now.

[aardvark baguette]

Only reason I haven't jumped onboard the Stat train is it would necessitate an entirely new rig. Its taken too long to get decent dynamic amps as it is. I really dont know if I feel like buying a new amp again.

Nice rig tkam. Enjoy!
