This headphone has been SOLD
I am selling a new custom Grado SR/Prestige style headphone. This build utilizes the following parts (all parts are new):
* Custom Narra wood cups, turned for me by Head-Fi member 'Fleasbaby'
* Symphones Magnum V9 drivers
* New set of Grado L cushions
* Sennheiser HD800 cable sockets
* New 10-foot Sennheiser HD800 cable
* Shipibo Audio (now: nyczaj.audio) slim, lightweight machined aluminum gimbals and rodblocks, finished in flat black ceramic coating
* Turbulent Labs standard width black, padded leather headband
* Grado spring steel headband support
The headgear is very lightweight, about the same weight as the stock headgear from a Grado RS2. Assembly uses steel set screws to mount the rodblocks to the steel headband support, nylon tipped set screws to set tension for extension and rotation of the gimbal rods within the rodblocks, and adjustable pivot set screws to hold the cups within the gimbals. The extension/rotations set screws allow for anything from easy adjustment on-the-fly to a fixed set-and-forget fit.
This is essentially a new headphone. The headphone, minus drivers, has been assembled and ready to complete for a year or so, awaiting drivers. I stopped building for a while due to medical issues. I installed the Symphones V9 drivers today and listened with them for a couple of hours using a cable from one of my personal builds. As I have already settled on a pair of custom built Grado headphones for my own use I am selling off the remainder of my custom parts. Save for the external design of the cups (aesthetics only) this is essentially a duplicate of my personal headphone with V9 drivers.
To assemble this headphone today using new parts would cost $500+, plus any associated shipping cost.
I am asking $325, price includes PayPal fees and shipping CONUS (currently for sale only within the United States). I am willing to entertain reasonable offers.
If interested please leave a reply in this thread and follow-up with a private message.
Thanks for looking! Have a great day,
