    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    Missed that part! Haven't handled a green pair yet so don't have info on that. Haven't encountered this on any of the red mk II's.

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    Hi guys, this loose swivel issue was a small problem that occurred with the initial run of these phones (the original TH-900, not the Mark II) when they first came out. Fostex solved the problem on the subsequent production runs.

    Denon AH-7200

    Hi xinghui0711 Thank you for the pics. Would it be possible to get a few close-up pics of the rear of the driver assembly (this piece):       Also, the interior of the wood cups would be useful much obliged. Cheers.   Mark

    Fostex TH-600 discontinued / out of production? Get yours now.

    My first post here at good ol' Head-Fi in many years and unfortunately I must be bearer of some potential bad news.   A customer alerted me that the TH-600 was missing from the Fostex website, wanted to know what the deal is. After a few phone calls, here's what we know.   I had a chat with...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    Hello, I would like to make a clarification. Customers who send in their phones are welcome as they always have been to keep any stock parts.  We are retaining the discarded factory parts from the remaining new Denon units we have in our stock. It is from these units of ours that we are...

    How To Build One Of The World's Finest Dynamic Headphones (markl Denon AH-D5000 Mods)

    Hey guys, I agree with Bostonears on the damping of the driver front, the regular Dynamat Extreme can be too heavy for the typical listener on some equipment. I have not tried the specific material he mentions, but these days, for phones where we do apply material to driver front, we use a...

    D2000 now same cable as D5000/7000?

    movi, correct, D2000 and D7000 have different wire inside; they also have different sheaths.

    D2000 now same cable as D5000/7000?

    Hi guys, Here are some pics of the D2000 cable and the D7000 cable to compare. D2000 on the left and D7000 on the right. First one shows the different copper. The pic doesn't cature it that well, but the D7000 wire is softer, more flexible and is more orange/pink than the D2000 wire due to...

    D2000 now same cable as D5000/7000?

    It's the rumor that won't die! I can't say for sure that there has never been a D2000 that somehow got a D5000 or D7000 cable put on it at the factory by mistake or something. I can say, in all the hundreds we've handled, we haven't seen it.

    does anyone have internal photos of the LA7000?

    Hi guys, Neither of the two damping materials used in the LA7000 are dynamat, they are similar compounds, less rigid, less thick and heavy than Dynamat. We've done a lot of testing with different materials, they aren't at all all created equal by any stretch. We've discovered D7000 doesn't go...

    Lawton Audio Custom Cups

    Hi Necrolic, From time to time, we will be turning some special pairs. I don't know yet what that will be and sometimes Roshan and George will surprise me with something. In any case, if and when they become available they'll be put up on our Specials page. Cheers.

    Buying a MD5000 third (or fourth) hand - How can I tell its Markl Modded?

    Hi guys, thanks for bringing this up. For some time now we have been shipping all product with a certificate of authenticity with serial number. We have records of all of our phones and customers of course, so we can authenticate it's one of ours. We invited all previous customers to e-mail...

    Lawton Audio Custom Cups

    Quote: Does Lawton Audio offers black gaboon ebony wood for extra fee? Hi DC5Zilla, From time to time we will have a pair turned from special/premium woods, though right now we do not and have no immediate plans for more. Our current line up of 6 standard woods are result of careful...

    Lawton Audio Custom Cups

    Quote: the damped Sheoak cups would tighten bass up a little, bring the mids forward and make the highs crisper and cleaner. Thanks, Necrolic for posting your thoughts, glad you are enjoying them, not sure what happened there at first with your equipment, but I don't believe it was...

    Help me find out if Doors Legacy is clipping.

    Quote: I know you have said in the past that all remasters you've heard sound better than their previous version and that's fine with me. I completely disagree and find many of them just too compressed and punchy for my tastes, preferring the much wider dynamic range of the earlier...

    D7000 instead of D5000 - Worth the cost?

    Hi guys, I think it's fair to say a lot of us, as one of our shopping techniques, do at some point in our information gathering, search for negative reactions in order to find out what the "dirt" is on any particular potential major purchase. What are its faults and is that something I could...

    D7000 instead of D5000 - Worth the cost?

    Hi Necrolic, I can't agree with your observations or your characterization of the prevailing sentiment about the sound of the mods and our phones, but that's life on ye olde internet.

    D7000 instead of D5000 - Worth the cost?

    Quote: The beauty of D7000s is that they cost about $150-$200 more than a markl modded D5000, but they control the bass very well and don't need a mod, yet they maintain the beautiful musicality of the D5000s that the Markl mod somewhat taints. ??? Necrolic, you have a lot of...
