I haven't had any problem with the headphones specifically. I've had to switch out stock cables twice and it looks like i will just stick to the stock cable I just had to ask to see if anyone else had any recommendations.    Thanks :)

I use my 846 4+ hours a day to include heavy uses during workouts. Has anyone had any issues with the stock cables? Does anyone have any recommendations for a heavy duty aftermarket cable for workouts? I've looked at a lot of after market cables but none of them look like workout cables. 

ToddTheMetalGod,   I wish I had the answer but I know Mark does, just ask him. I decided to get the Level 3 Mod (should have them middle of next month) and Mark has been extremely helpful and answered all the questions I had in extreme detail. 

Oppo PM-1 Ultrasone ED5 Ultrasone has pushed back ED5 shipments three times that I know of to the UK. Originally X-Mas, then mid March, now who knows. Wondering is they are having financial problems and are going down the drain. If so the ED5 will be a collectors item.

Has anyone had a full Lawton Audio Mod on this headphone? If so can I get an impression? I have no doubt I will be in love with the look and sound of the headphone, but I decided to keep the stock ear pads. 

Is there a reason for purchasing flagship headphones (over a $1000) if I can purchase uncompressed binaural recording? I uses my HD800 then my ED8. My jaw dropped listening to both.

Wow, I had no idea music could sound this good. This is my first 192/24 download and I truly hope HIDEF music takes off because after listening to this I will not be able to go back. 

Thank you,   It was pointed out on another forum that I may want to consider selling the TH-900 cups since I was getting them modded. Since I'm getting new cups and new cables there is no need IMHO to change the TH-900 when I can just do it to the TH-600 since it does not come with as high...

Aizura, I see the picks so I'm assuming it's the same headband. Are you running a solid state or tube amp? I'm assuming you prefer the TH 900?

Is the Th600 a fragile headphone? For the people who have heard the 600 and the 900 is the headband the same? I'm asking because I'm getting my 900 modded and if the headphones feel the same no I will just get the 600 and mod that instead.

I picked up Bubinga and your headphones look gorgeous. I want an analytical sound (and a wood that would not increase the headphone weight) because I listened to nothing but trance and dance music. He offered me about eight woods to suit my listening taste. I'm keeping the stock earpads because...

Glad I found this forum on the Lawton Audio Mods. I went with the full gambit with the exception of the angled pads. I love the look of the stock cups but putting all the effort into having those cups layered in lacquered for a classy finish then stamping Fostex in the middle, just seems point...

Thank you 

Can anyone recommend a good stand alone EQ? 

Thanks again, now I just need more to be produced.

You should receive the user manual with the amp. If you do not receive the manual or a reply from this forum as the man who made it.

I read your description of how your ears fit into the pads. So just to clarify they fit similar to the HD800/T1, and just kinda float? If this is the case I'm sold and will be done with headphones for a while after this purchase. 

Thanks for all the impression, so many choices when it comes to quailty headphones. I guess there is a long line of people waiting to purchase these headphones. The website says put your email address in and Oppo will contact you when some are in stock. Hurry up Oppo I want one, and I'm like a...

Thank you, the T1 is on a ale so will probably pick it up.

I've been looking for another headphone for a couple of months now and since the T1 is on sale I would like to know how the earpads fit. I have the HD800 and consider my ears just float between the pads and the dynamic drivers I have no desire to go back to any other headphone that isn't this...

I'm sure this has been answered before but I have to ask. Is sweat an issue with the stock leather earpads? I tend to listen to my music for extended periods of time while I'm working so is ear fatigue an issue for anyone?

Thank you for the description, were you able to use the EQ on the AK240 to improve the sound? Do you like the AK240? 

Good for you for giving it another listen. A little shocked someone is already selling a used one that is basically the same as the purchase price. The ED5 in Europe is going for about $4,700, in the US it's going for $5K. Interesting about the isolation, the ED8 is the best isolating headphone...

LOL, I woke up this morning and I had a nightmare about buying the ED5's. I've heard from multiple people this is a midrange headphone and my favorite source said it would work well with a tube amp. So I'm at a lost of why the nightmare occured, I thought I had moved on from this debacle. No...

Thank you, another 10 years it is.
