So Jason vs Justin, who is better? Or are they the same person?

I second this

does anyone else only put 3 out of the 4 earpad tabs in? so it leaves a vent for increased bass reverberation? imo bassheads would love it, as it gives the bass much more presence... you can test out its effect by holding the headphones 1mm from your ear

That's a pretty 'sibilancy' area, so I followed that thread and tuned down that range, which has helped.  Same as if I'm listening to live jazz - the trumpet hits my resonant spot badly and makes me cringe, just as the 400's do with those instruments.  That sinegen program mentioned in that thread will help you find any nasty spots.

 

I've done that. Thanks for the advice.

 

My "bad" spots were arround 7.7khz and 11.1 khz.

 

It sacrificed some detail though. I'll use it only with non-instrumental songs.

Thanks Matt. I'd heard of Moon Audio, but didnt realize they were NC (Cary, about an hour from me). Good to know.

I ended up saying screw it and bought the Brainwavz stand because Amazon had it for $15 less than MP4 Nation's site. It fits the HE-400 very well and I don't feel like the headband is being stretched at all. Here's a couple pictures.

 

Also pictured: Shure SRH750 DJ, Creative T40 Series II Speakers, Larry and His Flask ... Flask, HE-400 on Peridot stand, Tetris NES cartridge clock and Creative Aurvana Live! headphones. Also, Cthulhu in the middle, protecting my HE-400. He's very tiny but packs a punch.

Headlamp huh? Sounds perfect for someone who's looking for headphones and matching lamps.
