you hacked up the stock cable? I wasn't too fond of it so replaced the whole thing on mine. a balanced PS1 sounds great though.

there are so many balanced PS1's around compared to its production run. possibly the highest ratio of balanced headphones to the available stock?

It just thought they suffered a bit from lack of bass control... aside from that I cant really pick out any gripes with them... Think a balanced amp will greatly help them out... we shall find out this weekend at the ohio meet. I also made some 75ohm extensions which helped the bass a bit as well.

I suppose the recable helps a bit, but its the extra control you get with the balanced amp that really seems to make a difference.

I just don't like the look and build of the stock cable, that's all.
