Thoughts? Better than the K-40's? We all have to remember that the K-40's were nonexistent or a factor in audio until they were praised By "The Mikeyman." Others used them but Mikey made them a force to deal with. They are very cheap as compared to others out there and maybe all feel for the money they are a great deal for a good sounding product. I know a lot of DIYer's suggest polystyrene in the RIAA but how about for coupling? Now that Blackdog made his comments on them I am starting wonder myself. |
