    Just listened to some Fostex T50RPs today... WOW!

    Quote:   Hey thanks for the tip. I never heard of this stuff before but I'll be sure to add it to the shopping list.    I can see how something like this would work very well for regular traces, but one problem I can see with doing something like this on a pair of orthos is when the...

    Quote:   I knew a tracer pen was definitely out of the question as soon as I saw the hairline traces even a super fine pen would be unusable. I have bottle of copper tracer paint used to repair this kind of stuff. I tried it a few times and had to wipe it off cause I could not keep it off...

    Just listened to some Fostex T50RPs today... WOW!

    Quote:   Thanks for the info.    This particular pair has actually been through quite a bit of abuse, so the pads were broken many moons ago in one of my early mods, but I quickly fixed that awhile back by soldering strait onto the traces.       I decided to crack open a...

    Anyone taken apart their drivers before? I have a set of T50RPs with no sound off the right driver, I have checked and double checked all the connections, down to using a battery to test the driver itself and I'm getting no sound. I'm thinking of taking one of the drivers apart to check if there...

    Quote:     Dan,   Based on all your time spent modding so many pairs of Fostex, have you seen evidence of sound quality being vastly different between different pairs of T50RPs?

    Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2

    Quote:   I wonder if there is a huge loss going unbalanced from the DAC to the BHA-1 then balanced to the LCD-2 versus going fully balanced from the DAC to amp to LCD-2.  Usually I would think there would be a huge difference, but I'm hearing some talk about how the BHA-1 is not a fully...

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    Quote: If you get the Behringer mic to work well please let me know.    I have a ECM8000 and a MIC800 combo setup with Room EQ Wiz and I am unable to get reliable measurements.   I calibrated my soundcard and used a general calibration file for the mic and I was still unable to...

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    BMF,   Have you tried punching some 4 holes into the felt for the Naked Driver mod? I'm still doing some testing but the results thusfar are pretty good.   I got a pair of LCD-2s as well as another pair of T50RPs and 2 pairs of 840 pads. Should be a fun week.   I'm going to try to...

    Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2

    Has anyone had the chance to try both the new Taboo and the Bryston together? Or the Soloist and the Bryston for that matter.

    I'm having a bit of trouble with muffled bass on my pair. I'm just not getting the same clean and punchy feel that the stock T50RPs give. My config is the same as DBV #3 except I'm using pink fiberglass. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    After putting in so much cotton and fiberglass, it's kind of hard to close up the cups. Or am I just putting in too much? I ordered a precision scale off ebay a few hours ago, I should know for sure when I get it.    I'm having a bit of trouble with muffled bass on my pair. I'm just not...

    Are 840 pads still the tries and true pads for the T50RPs(for the price) then? Last I heard, the Audeze pads and O2 pads are the best but those are substantially more expensive than the 840 pads. Not sure if there are many other alternatives.
