    Ultrasone Warranty

    Does anyone have the warranty info for Ultrasone? I found nothing on their website and all I have is a phone # that I will call tomorrow. The right ear went out on my HFI-780s and I don't have the box with documentation handy, so I'm hoping that these are covered. I got them probably 8 months...

    So what's the word on the new Ultrasone HFI-780????

    Anyone done any headband mods yet? That leather "block" on the top is painful after an hour. I just ordered a HD580 pad, and am going to try and see what I can do with that.

    C'mon guys. The SE530 Appreciation Thread. Triple Fi owners welcome

    Love my SE530s. Built a Mini^3 for it and I actually look forward to being stuck somewhere away from home with nothing to do but listen to them I chose them over the triple.fi because of comfort.

    Quote: Originally Posted by amb No. That cap is merely a small filter/decoupling cap in front of the voltage regulators and the capacitance is not critical. I spec'ed 10uF/25V because it is the largest tantalum that would comfortably fit within that footprint and not cost an arm and a...

    It is hard to build a Mini^3?

    Sorry for the threadjack, but I just realized I forgot C2, the tantalum cap. Is there something I can sub for it (maybe a 100uF 25V electrolytic (C5) or a 1uF 35V tant/10uF 16V tant from ratshack)?
