Driving with Headphones
My car is loud due to a performance exhaust system. Around the city I use my stereo (it is a nice component system, and the car is dynamatted). On trips 2+ hours, I love using my IEM's. It seems to make the time dissapear, and it is very nice to isolate my exhaust, and wind noise from my...- rvas18

[MOD] HifiMan RE-ZERO Balanced Plug removal + standard plug mod
Thanks everyone. I haven't heard anything about the RE-Zero's warranty being upgraded myself, but it wouldn't surprise me if Feng did that given the RE-0 have 12 months. Either way though my warranty is gone :P This mod has been great so far, it is great not to have to worry about the...- rvas18

[Review] Hifiman RE-Zero
Quote: I just ordered a neutrik plug. I hope the wires aren't enameled, but with how thin the cable it I am gonna assume they are. I will post some pics of my progress and of hopefully a much more convenient and improved (for my purpose) set of headphones.- rvas18

[Review] Hifiman RE-Zero
Has anyone tried soldering a normal plug on these phones? My soft adapter is starting to give me a crackling sound, and i hate the bulkiness of the hard plug. I am a little scared to ruin my set, also I am curious if there is a plug that would work well with such a light weight cable....- rvas18

I am getting back into headfi and I bought a couple things tonight....
Yeah, it is. I am thinking of building me a nice box for the amp when this summer college semester is over. I still am anxiously waiting to put this together. Does that circuit look familiar to anyone here?- rvas18
