Headphone

Gentlemen,

Just aquired Sennheiser 650's and am in the market for driver amps. Lots to choose from, but I've only noticed Headroom and Meier products offering a "cross-feed" feature to blend L/R. Those of you who have their products (or other manufacturers ???), do you prefer utilizing this feature, somewhat, or almost never? Some say they'll never go back to conventional drivers without it.

Thanks in advance,

Frank

Greetings, I have the Headroom and I wouldn't listen without the "effect" on. When ever I compare turning the effect on or leaving it off, I alway find things sound considerably better with it on. Happy listening

Azjake,

Just inquired about the current Grace M901 Audiogon listing (now sold), and the seller stated it did not have the cross-feed feature like the new M902. The M902 is quite impressive, but also very expensive @ $1595. At that price point, Headroom enters the ring with its' heavyweights.

Meier makes some great product, but I wish there was a US importer. Can be a hassle dealing International, and credit card fees negate any advantages. That's not including import duties.

Appreciate both of your responces, and it looks like I'll need to be resourcefull regarding auditioning this feature.

If anyone else knows of other manufacturers with the "cross-feed" option, please contribute.

Frank
