I was more so focusing on the diy kit. But yea, they will build it for you.

And yea, I really enjoyed it with the HE-500. But at the time had a Lyr so

it didn't fit my needs. It doesn't really get talked about at all, but it's a nice piece.

I'm holding out for the HE-450 in candy red, with a strong bass emphasis. biggrin.gif Something that caters to those of us that like an even more fun signature. No Planar has it, yet. Hifiman should cover their bases with one. I loved the HE-400, but in the end, more bass was needed for me.

Oh, I won't! And some comparisons between the two pairs will follow, and pairings with a M-Stage and Yulong A100/D100...

Thanks for the info! My pairs were both "rev3" that's why I've been waiting for so long.

Congrats on HE-400, Mr Guess. :)

 

I bought a used pair of HE-400 a short while ago, and was wondering if anyone could fill me in on what the changes across revisions has been? I believe the pair I have is older. It only has the pleather pads and the jack is 1/4", if that is of any importance. They are enjoyable headphones indeed.

All the HE-400s come with pleather pads. You have to order the velours seperately.

As for the plug... make sure you can't disconnect the 1/4 plug. The new ones snap off to reveal the 3.5mm plug

Impossible now... and still....pleather/leather = no.

Besides, I miss that open, planar sound. The HE-400 was nearly perfect. Just more bass is all I wanted. The E17 at bass +4 did it, but I didn't want to rely on bass boosting, when not everything I plug my headphones into will have it. I want it to be part of the headphone.
