    Closed back headphone advise

    Thanks, I will put it on my short list. Very difficult to get a sense of all the options without listening to them. I don't even have an idea of where one would be able to demo anything.

    Closed back headphone advise

    I need some advise on getting a headphone for work. I want good sound quality but minimize noise pollution into the office space. Budget is around R3000 just for the headphones. I have looked at the Beyerdynamic DT770 250 Ohm. Is there anything else I should consider?

    Linn and Naim components

    I have some of both. I have an older classic Naim amplifier and a newer Naim integrated. The older amps sound very different from the newer one.

    Two 42V 500VA centre tapped transformers. What will the effect of the higher voltage be? Will it run hotter?
