    Have you considered the ETA Mini C or S?

    If you’re willing to wait and spend the cash, Atrium Closed will be coming out at some point. ETA Mini C is also a good choice.

    How about an IEM to tide you over such as the Timeless 7hz? I use them when away from my Atrium or Auteur.

    In the end the bbc dip prompted me to sell mine, but the prices on the VC have been coming down and there always seems to be plenty of them for sale over on Head-Fi. I'm wondering how much the audio market will be impacted with the recession that will become obvious in the next few months...

    @GanGreinke @edd @Cryptowolf My big concern with the Mini C is soundstage...the main reason I got my current AKGs is that they have a pretty good soundstage for closed headphones, but they just kinda sound thin compared to my HD800's or my HE500's. IEMs might be a possibility despite the soundstage thing, though, since those could also come in handy when I'm doing chores or running errands.

    Although maybe the problem is the AKGs not synergizing with the BHA-1...I should try other amps I have around before throwing money at the problem.
