et je ne parle même pas du Stax SR-009 concernant l'ennui !
Mais parle pour toi, je l'adore mon SR-009.
Il faut juste lui trouver les bons partenaires en matière d'électroniques pour le faire chanter.
Même si je ne doute pas un instant que le Thekk soit un casque magnifique, qu'il me tarde de découvrir.
Salut Sylvain.
Avec un Mc Intosh en pré-ampli (+ ampli Custom islandais), pour humaniser le Stax SR-009 et lui donner une certaine épaisseur et chaleure, je n'en doute pas : le son doit être très bien !
mais avec les amplis Stax, c'est .... du son Stax, un peu froid, analytique et éthéré, qui à la longue m'a ennuyé!
Sinon, je reviens sur un casque mal aimé et injustement méconnu de Kennerton, le moins cher de la marque, le Kennerton JORD, un petit casque baladeur fermé, haut de gamme, très qualitatif, indestructible, supra-aural, et "pas assez cher mon fils", à son plus grand détriment !
Voici le mea culpa de Valentin (le pdg de Kennerton), en anglais, au sujet de ce casque JORD "le mal-aimé", suite à une intervention d'un membre d' Head-fi sur le thread Kennerton.

The Jord seems to be not attractiv for the Kennerton's Fans who wants higher level Headphones
Réponse de Valentin (quote):
Kennerton Jord - it was our big mistake. We wanted to make audiophile headphones for outdoor use with the highest possible sound quality, with the most "unbreakable" design and aristocratic appearance. And we did it! But we made one mistake - these headphones were so cheap that their target audience did not pay attention to them. And we didn't earn anything from it. But, nevertheless, every Jord to the last pair was sold out. Mostly, thanks to exhibitions (especially thanks to CanJam exhibitions) - after listening to these headphones, most audiophiles wanted to have them! Perhaps the Kennerton Jord was one of the best "on-ear" closed-back headphones on the market. I am not aware of any other headphones of this form factor with a similar class of sound, no matter how much they cost. But they brought neither profit nor glory... Because they were very cheap for their extremely high class. And that was a big mistake. Unfortunately, wicked marketing very often replaces people's own ears... But we will definitely return to the release of this model later. It sounded amazing! And we must have this "small diamond" in our product range. And we will certainly correct the mistake of low pricing...
P.S. Sorry for my awful English...
