CAL2 broke after 6 years so now what? Momentum or M-100?
Hi guys, I owned the CAL2 for 6-7 years and they finally broke. I feel sad as these were my first "serious" headphones. I also had a lot of fun modding them with Dynamat, which tidied up the bass. Strange how one can be so attached to a pair of headphones. I think it is because of all the...- Quaresma

Audirvana even though I'm just using the built-in output?
Hi Hope this is not a stupid question. Will Audirvana Plus make a difference if I'm just using the built-in output of the Macbook Air? I don't have an external DAC, so just wanted to know if the software will make my music sound better Thanks- Quaresma

Get the HM5 pads! They are so comfortable. But I didn't really notice better isolation:/ Also, get some dynamat and start modding. My CAL2s are fully modded with dynamat, and they sound so much better than stock. No exaggerated wobbly bass- Quaresma

Here are the pics: Inside the cups The butt of the driver. Remember to make a hole in the middle, so the driver can breathe This is what made the biggest impact. Remember to cut out holes for the screws I know it doesn't look pretty. Not the best cut-outs, but it...- Quaresma

Ok guys I modded my CAL2 with Dynamat, and it sounds SO much better now! The bass is REALLY right, no more bloat or uncontrolled bass. It even made the lower-mids better, because of the tight bass. I put some dynamat inside the cups, on the butt of the driver, and on the round plate when...- Quaresma

Just received my HM5 pads! They fit perfectly. The bass tightened up, and eliminated the bloat that was there before. They are big, so much more comfortable. Also, I think the soundstage widened a bit, since the pads are deeper. Overall, a must have mod for 17$- Quaresma

I Just received the cable 30 minutes ago. Pretty fast from Hong Kong to Europe actually...in a few days :) Well, the cable is SO much better than the stock cable. No more distortion due to built-in volume control. The 2.5mm end on the headphone fits perfectly! Finally the CAL2 feels solid...- Quaresma

The Fiio cable is expensive IMO. Don't know if it will make that much of a difference on a not-so-audiophile-headphone. :/- Quaresma

You should've posted that link earlier, a little too late now :)) But thanks, that could be my replacement cable if the new one is too long like you said. Anyway, let's see how it goes. I'll post my thoughts when it arrives- Quaresma

The flimsy cable is already dead!:( Now I have to buy a replacement cable. Knew that thin cable wouldn't last long. I'll just go with a generic 2.5mm-3.5mm cable- Quaresma

What about Jmoney pads? They seems to be thicker and deeper. Will they fit? Or maybe denon 5000 and 7000 pads?- Quaresma
