New Cans…a Little Off Track

Okay, so every once in a while I get the hankering for some late night music when my kids are asleep and listening to my setup at less than moderate listening levels is just good enough…so, I got my first set of REALLY sweet headphones. In fact, they may be one of the best set of headphones on the planet and boy do they look the business. The AKG 701’s were recommended to me by my neighbor and parter in crime (co-owner of www.ParkAudioLabs.com) and I can’t say enough about them. What do they have to do with MINI’s? Absolutely nothing, aside from the beautiful retro modern design aesthetic and phenomenal performance. Listening to headphones has never been so good.

For those audiophiles out there I happen to be addict and have a constant flow of equipment coming and going in my house and currently have some Martin Logan Vantages powered by Nuforce Ref 9 V2 amps and a Cambridge 740C cd player that I use as a DAC which goes to a Parasound preamp….all the cables are Kimber Hero and Monacle X. The Vantages are on the way out in favor of the new Spire from Martin Logan…..
