Masterlogic, sorry for my tardy response, I have not heard the 06 yet. I know one person who has heard both and he says they are different animals and not really to be compared. The 06 has more bass weight than the 05 whilst has a little less refinement.
He ended up going for the 06 as he has a home amp similar sounding to the 05 (though it cost another 2K!).
Black tang, thank you for your kind thoughts. As time passes my appreciation for the amp just increases. It is nice to see some other folks getting their amps now and finding the same as me in terms of sound quality. Shikada San is being kept very busy these days!
HiFi guy. I have a number of headphones and the ER4's are still my benchmark IEM's. They do so much for so little!
