HE-500 damping mods
I have now been in contact with Fang @ hifiman who suggests the ringing/glare is being caused by an insufficiently powerful amplifier. I'm using an arcam alpha 5 plus speaker amp with a headphone output rated as follows: max output into 600 ohms - 10V rms output impedance 33 ohms ...- kindasonic

LCD-2 (especially the Rev2 Driver) or HE-500??
Can anyone offer an opinion on the "glare" or "ringing" effect that some have experienced (including myself) with the HE-500. Does the LCD-2 exhibit this characteristic or is it a general trait of the technology? Thanks- kindasonic

Q-Jays Review
hi all, I have owned q-jays for 2 years and absolutely love them. I have also owned full size cans such as gs1000 and now HE-500 and it never ceases to amaze me how these larger cans cannot match the q-jays for speed of bass and overall tightness of sound. where the q-jays cannot match full size...- kindasonic

HE-500 damping mods
Hi there, I have owned both HE400 and (currently) HE500 and noted the same resonance or "ringing" in the mid range on both cans.
