Improving bass response of orhodynamic headphones
Dear community, I have a pair of Peerless PMB 100 orhodynamic headphones. I just checked with a swept tone and there is no audible output below 35...40 Hz. I came to the idea that the reason might be acoustic short circuit. They are, like most orthos, an open type. The actual drivers are round...- lcsaszar

Technics EAH-830
There is definitely no double cavity. The diaphragm is about 4.5 mm (3/16") from the front surface, not counting the earpads. There is no leak from the back to the front. There is a 'cavity' behind the diaphragm, it is 17 mm deep (11/16"), undamped, apart from some thin dust-protecting fabric...- lcsaszar

Orthodynamic Roundup
I disassembled my Peerless PMB-100 headphones, and sealed all the holes on the baffle around the diaphragm with masking tape. I also applied a thin layer of black felt at the whole rear surface of the headphones, just behind the covering grille. Unfortunately the bass did not increase much, only...- lcsaszar

Technics EAH-830
I bought my pair of EAH-820 long, long time ago. One may get another pair only by chance. I have seen one on eBay (it's a pity I missed it): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=230060193781 However, I have seen a technical brochure on this line of product...- lcsaszar

Technics EAH-830
Hey Wualta, Thanks for processing my scan an republishing it in this thread. Actually my EAH-820 and your EAH-830 differ only in some minor details. The external face of the 820 is formed from the plastic case as a grille, painted with silver paint (unlike the 830 which looks for me woven...- lcsaszar

Orthodynamic Roundup
This is the intact diaphragm indeed. The other is broken. I tried repairing it with "liquid silver", a PCB repairing fluid, but no avail. I contacted a company who scanned it and probably it is possible to transfer the pattern to the foil, but I have no idea how to do it. Someone suggested that...- lcsaszar

Orthodynamic Roundup
I am also a proud owner of a pair of Peerless PMB 100. I purhased them from Germany, and of course I disassembled and inspected them inside. I also recabled them internally, painted the internal felt black and repainted the rear metal grille. I replaced the ear foam with thin perlon wool covered...- lcsaszar
