This Beyer driver is 234 ohms instead of 250. Can anything be done?
Hello, I have two Beyer DT770 drivers, each from a different pair, I put them together and noticed the volume from both sides was different, so I measured it and one of them shows 234 ohms, the other 250. Can I do anything to match the impedances or I'm just going to have to adjust the volume...- Amatsu

Well I appreciate your responses anyway, at least I fixed the resistors :thumbsup:. Maybe I'll try to find a higher rated psu, I think the_equalizer had a 1A cisco psu.- Amatsu

I connected R3 and R9 directly to the pins but it didn't make a difference unfortunately, power supply still turned off after around 2 hours. I tested the current and it was drawing 0.28A. (This PSU is rated at 0.38A).- Amatsu

Interesting, can I test the current with the multimeter? At what point would be best? The mosfets are connected with cables to the pcb, maybe I should connect them directly to the pcb.- Amatsu

Does anyone have any idea why the Cisco power supply enters protection mode after 1-2 hours? It just started happening all of the sudden, I have to disconnect the power supply and wait a minute. The amp works fine, it just turns off all of the sudden, I also notice the power supply is quite hot...- Amatsu

That's what it said. I contacted the seller for a more detailed description. My guess is they messed up and it's actually the RE-400i.- Amatsu

Hifiman he-400i Impressions and Discussion
I just bought a used pair for around 67$ + shipping on amazon.co.uk from a very reputable seller, it said it comes with earphones only + extra earbuds. I don't have high expectations but I had to try. As long as they actually work I supposed I'll be happy, I can always buy or use replacement...- Amatsu

Have you tried with the onboard audio? Some onboard chips nowadays are more than decent.- Amatsu

Yes I'd rather not buy them there, plus they are double the price.- Amatsu

Such a shame that there's still no way of getting these in Europe. And can't even find a place to import with a fair price either.- Amatsu

Well I've re-build the amp with the new pcb into a small cardbox until I can make or find a decent enclosure. It finally sounds alright! I knew there was something wrong with my p2p build, it sounded very harsh, now it's totally different. I'm really glad I bought the PCB, thanks again Fred. ...- Amatsu

Hey muskyhuntr, what do you use for the words on the case? It looks neat. Also do you use a led for the power and if so where does it go in the pcb? Quote: Not at all, it's just I prefer the 2D puzzle myself at least for now, maybe because it's easier. Also feels more sturdy with a...- Amatsu

It feels so good soldering in one of these...Doing a p2p build the first time was a good learning experience but I'm never doing that again.- Amatsu

Just as a curiosity, you can usually find up to 6 mosfets with screws, washers and insulation pad inside computer power supplies. If someone has a dead power supply it can be a good way to recycle some parts. Just be very careful if you're gonna poke inside a power supply, be sure to fully...- Amatsu
