| 120 or 240 AC current, Which one do you like best? Stehno & Sean, thanks for the info. I am interested due to the fact that My Ikemi, Kudos, Kairn-Pro & Klouts can be changed to 240 V by means of a switch in the rear panel.Lower ac noise is what I am after, will also install the extra 120 ... | |
| Is Sennheiser 600/650 an overkill ? My advise is the Sennheiser HD-497, it should be a good match for your computer. The HD-600 & HD-650 would be an excellent match for an amp that can drive them (300 omhs),the HD-497 impendance is just 32 ohm and it comes with the1/8 connector.... | |

| Totem Mani - 2 Signatures vs. Original Mani - 2 I used to own a pair of regular Mani-2 for about a year. I got me a new set of Signature Mani-2 about two months ago.First the main difference is closer tolerances of the drivers, and better internal wiring. Soundwise, you must have pretty good so... | |
