Hello everyone, I recently modified some vintage Channel Master Dynamic Stereo Heaphones (Model 6406), the modification involved completely removing the original drivers (Measuring in at a whopping 65mm!) and then replacing panels on which the drivers mount to with the panels from a pair of...

Hello, for the past year i've been designing some microspeakers on and off in the Onshape CAD software. And now I'm interested in building said design. I know it's best to use a single magnet, however getting one custom made is costly, and just one magnet would cost me around $70 so I'm...

Hello,    I am currently building a laptop, partly as a project to recycle a road case I have, but also so that I have something portable yet upgradeable that I can work on. I'd like to have audio so here is what I am asking.   Are there any PCBs, prebuilt or requiring self-assembly, that...

So i recently purchased a pair of Audip Technica Quietpoint headphones and found that toggling the power switch causes the volume in the right cup to become softer than in the left. I have to mess around with the switch in order to get balanced volume. Is there a way I can fix or adjust the...

Hey guys, I'm looking to learn how to make my own headphone drivers, I have a rather unique design that I want to test out. I've already designed the drivers in some cad software, nothing fancy but just enough to give me an idea of what the final product may look like.    I'd like to know...

Hey guys, hopefully this is the right section. I obtained a FISHER TAD-992 Stereo from a guy after he said I could have it if I could get it working. That worked out and I got the stereo but the 5 Disc changer still has a problem with the motor constantly running, it got to the point where I had...

Hey guys, I have a modified pair of headphones that I have noticed are sounding very "tinny" and one side is not functioning, the connections appear secure.   The cable I am using is brand new, I only just put it on last night. And it was working fine earlier today.

Hello all, I recently cleaned out a years worth of dirt and debris from my headphone drivers (Let the internal screams ensue) and although I like how much better my headphones sound/respond, I would like to find higher-quality drivers for my headphones.   What 40mm drivers would you guy's...

Hey guys, I'm currently designing a pair of 3D-printable over-ear headphones and I am looking for some input. I plan to make the blueprints freely available once they're complete   What dimensions would you guys recommend for earpads?    Also, would you guys be interested in seeing something...

Hey guys, so recently I was helping to clean out the Storage room for my Graphic Arts teacher and found a 12ft 5-pole DIN 41524 cable among the hilarious/hilariously placed junk in the room. I asked my teacher if I could have it and he said sure. so, was wondering if anyone knows where I can...

Hey guys, I've been modifying a pair of headphones I bought awhile back and i'm looking to buy some new ear pads, the current ones are more of a fit for smaller ears than my own and are uncomfortable.    here is a measurement diagram I whipped up real quick. Does anyone know where I can buy...

So I was thinking about the challenges posed by using multiple drivers in a pair of headphones. I came accrossed the thought of using a dynamic driver with a hollow center rather than a typical dynamic driver. It would look more like a ring rather than a disk.   I'd assume that using two or...

Hey, I'm a sophomore in high school starting this school year, and I've been meaning to either build my own custom headphones, or modify the pair I own so I came here to learn about modding techniques.   Currently I own a pair of Nakamichi BTHP11's which I got at a Sears closing sale for $40...

Hello, I am a PC Wizard (For the most part) and i've also had an interest in headphones and audio equipment, anyway, I am a freshman in highschool, and hope I can learn more about this strange world of sound.   Also, I seem to be having an issue with a two pair of headphones, both of them are...
