I've ordered mine, waiting on shipping notification. I've been looking forward to this for some time. Based on my impressions of their PM1 headphone I'm a little nervous about the amp but I've got my fingers crossed.

I look forward to your observations, Assimilated.
X1 on Valhalla vs X1 on HA-1 vs X1 on HK3490

I can already tell you the X1 is not a good match with the Valhalla

Did you do a write up anywhere on here? They don't match well with my Yamaha AVR, either.AsSiMiLaTeD wrote: »I can already tell you the X1 is not a good match with the Valhallaafterburnt wrote: »They didn't speak a word of English, they were from South Carolina.

I've done a write up on the headphones, nothing specific to them and the Valhalla. Those two don't match up well even on paper, the Valhalla being an OTL style amp designed for high impedence cans. I can't imagine any higher end headphone sounding good out of an AVR...
