Hey thanks guys for "reviving" this post! Yes Howard, please keep us "posted" with your results.Robm 1 -- if it complemented your Prima, I wonder what it would do to the sonics of my Capitole 24/192? 
Anyone heard of DK design group?
Hmmmm... Well, at least you ("Kimballcorson") have some history here at the 'Gon, (unlike a lot of other somewhat suspicious 1st time posters who also just happen to be "new" members.)I have to admit to still being a little skeptical of the DK Des...

Come On, Zeus-ers, How Does the Big Rogue Sound?
OK, surely there MUST be a few more Zeus owners out there that can "chime in" ?Wonder how it compares to something like the Cary V12R's, or Jolida JD3000A??Anyone?? 
Listening to my HD650's, a sobering experience...
Hey, thanks for all the replies guys! I know what a few of you mean about the "imaging in the head" with the cans, and the lack of the sound having viseral, physical impact like you get with speakers in a room.I have occasionally augmented the hea... 
What's the best aftermarket cable for Senn. HD650?
Looks like a close draw between the Silver Moon and the Equinox - each having it's own attributes, depending on headphone amp, personal taste, etc..Personally, I've always tended to prefer Silver, if its done right, so I'll probably go for the Sil...

Best speaker cables for electrostatic speakers?
SoundString -- smooth, articulate... have a pair linking my Prodigies to Halo JC-1's with really musical/magical results. 
Why all these JC-1's for sale?
Just some observations... I noticed as of today, there is only 1 Pair of JC-1's for sale here @ 'Gon.So, what about the hundreds and hundreds of completely satisfied owners such as myself? (Maybe we're just too busy enjoying them to read these pos... 
Review: Denon DCD-1560 CD Player
