Thats a nice update to the kit, i have the original nutube kit and i still haven't put it together lol.

What sounds good is such a subjective thing. One of my favorite and most used op amps is the jrc4558 in the to-5 metal package. Something about this chip just hits all the right spots.

When you build the cmoy if you increase the capacity of the input and or output capacitors you will change the roll-off and it will give you a warmer sound. If I was home I could tell you exactly the size I use but it's been a while since I built my last one. I have well over a dozen similar...

Old thread but hopefully still monitored, do you still have the grado cup model? Would be cool to print a set with this new bamboo/pla filament i got.

Hello, Ill keep right to the point and please do ask questions if you have any.   So far i know you have headphone speakers, jacks and cables. What you need is a good housing to put the speakers in, Construction hearing protectors are my first choice, they are large so it will fit the large...

If you want to go the route of making your own check out using a form and press to create your shape so with say a donut you only...

Can anyone recommend a brand that makes inexpensive real leather ear pads? Needed for t50rp and my dt770 compatible 3d printed headset. My ears are setting tired of all the knockoff junk pads being sold on amazon, they are never that comfy and they fall apart way to fast with daily use.  ...

Okay so it's a FIIO E18 knock off with less features for the same price. 

What country are you in? It might end up costing you more to have it recabled then to just buy a new pair. Now if you know someone who can help with the soldering you could get a real cheap iem to use the cable from and if you check out the pictures in this thread you get a good view of the...
