Stockholm (Sweden) Mini Meet - Interest Check
Hi! It's a great idea, but my family situation and location is very different compared to 10 years ago so I can probably not attend. If there is a meet and the stars align perfectly, than ... perhaps ... but can't count on it :/- Henmyr

The Leben CS300XS Thread
The hum is very very quiet and nothing that bothers me at all (I'm not sure I really hear it at all even when I try). It was worse with Sylvania 5751 and did bother me then, better it's much better with the Sovtek 12AX7LPS I'm using now.- Henmyr

The Leben CS300XS Thread
For the past years I've used the HD650 for 90%+ of the time and wonder if the Bottlehead Crack would be even better than the Leben for those.

The Leben CS300XS Thread
Hi. I did anyone try to add a switch to change the resistor values? I have low level noise in the right channel with HD650/600 but it's completely silent with Grado RS1. The sound is excellent with the RS1 and I don't want to lose that, so I'm considering adding a switch. There is no good...- Henmyr

Grado modders go Magnum
Quote: Thanks! Then I did it correctly. The headphones are now as raw as can be, unfinished non-premium wood cups, no headband and temporary cable, but the sound i'm getting already makes this a VERY promising headphone.- Henmyr

Grado modders go Magnum
Hi. I got a pair of V4 magnum drivers today. How should I solder the signal and ground? There is a small dot/mark close to one of the solder pads. Is that the solder pad for the signal or the ground?- Henmyr
