post #17281 of 18428

there are 2 other places but do not ship to Australia under $100 order.

post #17282 of 18428

Ah I didn't realize you were in Aus. I guess mouser won't ship the ixys parts overseas. I know future electronics is mentioned in the thread on the other site and possibly some other sources as well. I guess you haven't taken the advice given here and there to read that thread before building frown.gif

I can get them still, maybe a premium though.

 

yes i did read it (reading it), only got 2-3 parts to source out, no big deal.

I'm trying to replace the earpads, headband, and headband arc on my pair of SR-007 MK1s, but I'm not entirely sure how to do so.  I can see two screws on each side for the headband assembly, but that's about it -- anyone have pointers as to how I should go about doing this?

Sorry if this has been asked already, but I tried searching for "earpads" in this 1152 page long (!) thread and wasn't able to find much.  I could've sworn I once saw a diagram someone drew up illustrating this, but I also can't find it!

Replacing the earpad (takes a little patience when putting the new one on)

The headband replacement is pretty straightforward as well.

 No. Only rated @ 350 volts

Where did the serial numbers start for the SR-009?

Was it 1 or something higher, mine is 1288

post #17289 of 18428

Oh my god.

 

Even powered out of a 'lowly' SRM-252, the Omega II Mk1 is amazing. It is so fast, so detailed, so non-fatiguing and so comfortable. Color me impressed folks.

Color me a red from LMAO.

Is there any bass? how the separation compared to your 323S?

post #17291 of 18428

Would say the bass is there, but not in large amounts. Enough for me to consider the headphone neutral though. I don't get that much sub-bass presence compared to the 507 on 323S. Repositioned the pads to make the distance of the driver further from the ear and now the headphone is seriously pumping out some loud bass. Can't A/B with the 323S as it's in another country currently. I just heard one track that I heard countless times, and for the first time I could make out the three distinct melody lines in one part of the song. Very impressed with the separation.

Can anyone speak to the sonic difference between the Lambda Pro & Lambda Pro Signature?  Or any vintage Lambdas they find superior and why specifically?  Would prefer thoughts on smoothness of frequency response, open-ness of the sound, neutrality.

Well they are made for different parties:-)) Well they are realy close but the Lambda is a kind of tool for studio professionals who only want the "truth". the Signature is for the audio enthusiast who wants a "nice" sounding headphone. I switch around between Lambdo Pro Signature Pro and Sigma Pro depending on what kind of microphones and setting was ued to make the recording.

When "taping" myself I always use the Lambda! (Checking what I play on my instruments)

When listening for relaxing I use Signature or Sigma with ED1 Signature.

Please look at the data sheet for both, they are the same rating for "Max working voltage/350v" and "Max overload voltage/700v"

 

Is this correct?

Yea should be fine then. I just saw the 350 and didn't really look closely. Never heard of that brand of resistors though so I can't vouch for their quality.
