Hi Guy,

An assembled Crack will generally sell for more than the kit. If you built the Crack yourself you can probably recoup your original outlay and then some. I say this because I've now owned and thoroughly compared (over on Head-fi) the Crack, SEX and Mainline, and would highly recommend upgrading to the SEX in order to drive both your headphones to even better performance than the Crack.

The SEX sounds different to the Crack, but personally I find it more resolving and with a larger soundstage. It's a worthy upgrade in sound, but also versatility in driving any impedance headphone.

Hi Loquah.
(Strange name,
but I am sure it means something
and there is a reason why it sounds unusual.)
My Crack was assembled by another Bottlehead forum member
for a very good price.
I did not pay for transport and custom tax.
However, I live on planet Vietnam, therfore, I cannot sell it here,
as the Vietnamese don't buy unknown brands,
that how the Vietnamese are.
If I sell it to someone in USA, it would cost too much on transport...
So, if I sell it, I would loose too much $ $ $.
Then I have to come up with some extra money that I don't have.
Therfore, I will keep it.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Ah. I understand. It's a shame you can't enjoy both your headphones with the Crack, but the HD650 + Crack combo is world class so at least there's that. Happy listening!

Yes, my username is unusual - it's pronounced lock-wah and it came from a friend playing with my real name (Lachlan).
