Solo SRG/PSU1 has arrived!

Philmic a lot has to do with the size of your wallet and the mods you will be implementing. The differences between the stock D2000 and D5000 are the cable, the cups, and the color of the metal at the ends of the headband. However the D2000 can be purchased used for about $200-$220 USD while the D5000 may (if you are lucky) be bought used for about $350-$400 USD.

Just thought I would come on here and post about how my Solo is coming along. I've now reached over 500 hours and it's still changing ever so slightly with a little more bass coming in and some added smoothness. The bass while not earth shaking like mrarroyo already pointed out is true but man it is so highly resolved its just to die for in my opinion. Everything this thing does is just golden and more then any other amp I've ever heard including the Veda Audio Maxxed Out Dynahi w/ stepped attentuators that I once owned I am just able to sit back and enjoy the music like never before. The soundstage at times really trips me out. I've never really experienced the kind of sound stage that this thing throws out. It really is 3 dimensional at times, a trait I had not experienced out of the Perreaux that I had done all of my headphone listening out of for the last 3-4 years. Really a great amplifier at a great price for the performance it gives. My sennheisers have never sang like this. I've listened to all kinds of music with the majority being diferent types of pop and rock, a little bit of R&B and singer song writer type music. Although a lot of people will say that HD600s don't do well with rock music. Through my Solo, its all sounded superb to my ears. Still can't decide which headphone to get next though. Considering the SR225's which I'm sure will sound superb out of the Solo. Yet again big thanks to Graham for such an awesome piece of audio bliss. Happy listening!

The only high quality pair of headphones I own at the moment are Sennheiser HD600's. I don't understand why I would need to ground it if I'm not using the switchng power supply? I do agree though that it does seem to need more then 500 hours to settle down completly because it does seem like everytime I use it, its smoother then the last time I heard it.
