Nice introduction. We like that a whole lot more than a first post trying to sell something.

Take Nate's advice and get up to speed. We're a bit different around here, but a great bunch. Welcome!

Thankyou all for the welcomes.

I have been reading up a lot lately on cans... here, head-fi, 6moons, moon-audio, headphile, lawton audio...and everywhere else.

I am NOT new to the Tube Amplication world...But i am on cans.

My set up consists of:

Mastersound Reference 845

Sunfire Tube Preamp

Shanling SCD-T200 Sacd/Cd tube player

Sony SCD-1 Top Loader Sacd/Cd player

Sony SCD-777es Top Loader Sacd/Cd player

Speakers: HGP Fuga ST Tri-wire

Power Cords: XLO, Zu, KimberKable

Speaker Cable: KimberKable Trifocal XXL

Interconnects: Synergistic Research, Tara Labs Reference, KimberKable

Made a couple of buys on Cans and Access.

AT Ath-W1000

AKG K701

Grado SR325i

Denon A5000

Little Dot II with Mullard Tubes

Creek OBH 11

Cardas mini to mini line out

CMoy

Only the W1000 and the Creek arrived...loving so far...cant wait til everything is here so that i can make the comparison.

Anyhow, I will just keep on reading up...and hopefully will contribute to this great forum someday.

Thanks again for the welcoming.

You like the W1000? Leave HC

Something i should know about? hihihi

The W1000 was my first experience....and it was a world apart different from my cheapy in-ear that came with the iphone.

Not confidence enuff to say that the w1000 is the best...cause i have not heard any else.

we're not talking about reading up on cans, we're talking about reading up on our community

huh?????

Ok..all i want is to LEARN about cans, whether such can has good ratings, or bad ratings, what would complement best for such can or should i just skip such can for good..etc... Afterall, it's for my personal taste preference.

Certainly, I can assure that NO FLAMES would come from me. And last but not least, I am not looking to date anyone on here nor to become best friends.

Regards,

SD

What he said, plus welcome to Head-Case.

Then you are in for a treat. The W1000 (and 5000 for that matter) are weakpoints in the AT lineup.

True enough, but W1000s are nice sounding and do especially well with tubes for a tube sound lover like our new friend here. I had a pair of A500s as my gateway drug and the W1000s were a big improvement over those, so going from ibuds to W1000 is a massive upgrade.

I call dibs on his liver.

:laugh:

Welcome!

If you disgrace the name of Calvin & Hobbes in any way I will find you and kill you.

Don't forget to save the liver for aerius.

Rookie: welcome.
