Thanks DB!

We'll I'm balding, do I just buff with a towel!

Figures a fellow Canuck would go to such incredible and detailed lengths to work out a solution. It also gives me hope at solutions. I happen to have a friend with a 3d printer in resin, so I'll try this in the future and update. As it turns out my headband is in need of replacement, so your...

Cheers bro. Enjoy your vacation.

Hey DB, were you ever able to source a solution? My d7000 headband pin just broke, and I'm a little attached since I self modded it

Quote: I did, and can tell you that impressions are limited due to meet noise, but in the end, I found they sounded quite similar.  That said, STAX remains my favourite headphones to date, and I really need to get me a T1 energizer + a nice lambda signature or even a lambda nova!

Quote:   Peter, I'll bring the template amp to use, although it won't be burnt in as I've already packed away all my audio equipment for the move.     I'll also bring an extra DVD player as a source for those who want.  Sorry, it's all i've got extra.  

It's been too long since I've been to a meet, and the wife's ok'd me, so I'm in.  I'll bring my OD5000's (MD5000's, self-modded), a KICAS and Caliente, and my CA 840C.  I'll try to see if Peter will loan us his D7000's and maybe his DT990's.  Maybe he'll even come!   I'm not rushing to bring...

I decided to look up Mikhail and found him - http://www.linkedin.com/pub/mikhail-rotenberg/a/498/8b4   He has 3 profiles and is still located in the Denver Area.  That and he has the chutzpa to call himself an electrical/electronics engineer... I hope this isn't old news...   I wonder...

Hi all, and thanks for stopping by.  July is a special month in North America: On July 1st, we Canadians celebrate our independence as a nation with Canada Day.  Only 3 short days later do our cousins to the South celebrate Independence Day in the USA.   It is a time to celebrate our freedom...

Just something to think about: the noise rejection spoken of by Cambridge Audio should be considered carefully. Although the noise rejection on the XLR side (source) may be better and pass through the system, you may end up with a bottleneck at the RCA inputs on the amp, as their connection...

I hope the mods don't delete this one, b/c it's fair game, I think - I heard looser101's Cambridge Audio 840C (had a VDA-2/VAC-1 at the time that I LOVED). Well, I sold the DAC and bought it. I wish I had the time/money to get a pair of T1's or HD800's to perfect my system, but man! what a...

soldering is easy enough a skill to learn - lots of online tutorials w/ step by step instructions, plus you should be able to buy a decent soldering iron and supplies for 100 quid, which is at least as much as you'd pay fo someone to do the work I'd imagine... well, someone worth sending your...

easy answer? try new cans. "Classic" Senn's have a deep bass weakness, so does the AKG lineup. certain manufacturers of audio equipment compensate for this weakness by boosting bass frequencies a few dB. GCHA is pretty neutral and doesn't compensate for weak cans. If you were using a D5000 by...

I'm glad to see this vision finally realized, rhydon. I didn't think it would ever happen, it took so long. I know you're anal about acheiving the right sound, but I hope you didn't compromise your Joe Grado tuned HP-2's for this endeavour!
