So these are back again: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/electrostatz-hi-res-hybrid-dual-driver-headphones/x/13522536#/ Picked up a pair for $69 and they came in a box labeled with he in2uit branding, which prompted my search here and discovery of this thread. Some interesting 'upgrades'...

You might check this link out: https://www.innerfidelity.com/content/sumptuous-and-sonorous-bowers-wilkins-p7 The review shows the details on the ring and how they impart acoustic flavors to the overall sound, so it's more than just a plastic ring. There is a company on Amzn that sells...

The new HD Jimi Hendrix release, Machine Gun, is sounding sweeeeeet on the PH's!

Yes, Eudis, I was thinking about that as I installed the Lawton tune-up... I forget exactly what I had in mind when I saw it, but basically getting some kind of seal between the drivers and the frame to which the pads clip in.  That's not an issue on the Thunderpants because the fabric/leather...

Same happens when I cover the bass ports on my Thunderpants, which is why some of the various T50RP mods have cups with more ports on them (more bass and soundstage, I'd think).  But a direct comparison to those cans sitting on a wood headphone stand with the cups completely sealed (as they...

Those Dekoni pads have the same inner dimensions.  I needed more space for my big ears, so I went with Lawton, also installing the tune-up kit while at it.  Lawton pads have a circular inner diameter vs. the stock 'D' shape.  Much nicer fit, never gets warm/hot even with hours of listening...

They do pair nicely!  

Read through this thread a bit... the thread starter talks specifically about the pairing of HD 650's with this amp (post #21).   Unless you're looking for a dedicated desktop DAC/Amp, you might consider CEntrance's forthcoming DACportable.   I've been very happy with my PX, though as...

Just dropped for $180 for anyone interested!

Product just dropped again, folks!

  Special thanks to Smeggy, Michael Goodman, Brian Goto and the Willett family.     They're real.... and they're FANTASTIC!

For the first couple of weeks I was using a 4s (Verizon carrier) with bluetooth and wifi enabled, in addition to the 3G radio.  When a call came in and interrupted the music, I'd switch to the bluetooth headset for the duration of the call, then go back to the music via headphones/IEM's (1/4"...

No, but I do use M8 as a DAC and 'line out' to the Fiio E9 when I want to more comfortably drive my Thunderpants.  Don't get me wrong, the M8 will power them well on its own, but for lack of a better description, my ears get fatigued when I listen with that set-up, whereas they don't when I'm...

It's a Class A amp, so the power cycle lasts the same regardless of what is hooked up to it.  I get about 6 hours if I have a single pair of IEM's or even if I'm running two similar full-size cans.  Rumor has it that even if you weren't running anything, but the unit was switched on, it would...

Get yourself a hardhat and complete the ensemble!     (there is supposed to be a Village People image here, but you get the idea)
