Finally got around to rebuilding my Ypsilons. Used the following:
Cable by
@Arty McGhee
Aluminium cups custom milled by Chris at Elleven Acoustica
Aluminium gimbals by Symphones
Leather headband by Turbulent
Stock Grado metal band and plastic rod blocks
Ypsilon drivers (of course)
Black Limba sleeves turned by me
TTVJ Flats (they give the Ypsilons a little more bottom end)
Someone at work I did a build for a while ago looked worried when she saw them. I asked why. "Well, they don't look like a pair you'd made..." she said. I have to admit, these are a little bit of a deviation for me, but I like the look of them. The Nhoords in Black and White Ebony will likely stay my daily drivers, but these will stay on the desk at home and maybe come out once in a while.
This was the second in four personal builds I am setting aside time to get together. The next two will use the Nakamichi SP-7 and the Magnum V6 drivers I think (unless I get antsy and skip to the V7).
