Bought this about a week ago, but the sound is not my style. Rather than reselling, I've decided to give it away. It has new pads and elastics and is recabled with Canare starquad cable. I have heard the left side intermittently fade in and out twice, so there may be a loose connection on the...

A little over a month ago, I helped a fellow DIY HFer with some out-of-stock parts. I gave him a good deal and even let him after he receives the item. (Yes, yes... I know, stupid idea. But I was shipping it regular mail w/o tracking and it was $15.) Needless to say he hasn't paid me yet, but...

Does anyone know if other AKG pads fit the K401? The stock pads are made of some plastic material that feels itchy.

Is there a US distributor of Qables' Y-Splitter or a domestic company that sells something similar? Qables | High Quality Custom Made Qables

No real takers in my FS thread, so I'm just going to give these away. I have two ε22 boards available for anyone working on a β22 build. If you want one, just reply to this thread. Special consideration will be given to members who are:active in this forum, or active at Headwize forum, or...

For my Bijou, I want to encase it in a wooden enclosure. I don't have the tools or the skills to make one that looks decent. So far, I have only found Welbourne Labs (Welborne Labs Hardwood Chassis) but they have a spotty record:diyAudio Forums - Welbourne Labs! Welborne Labs business in trouble...

Anybody planning/already bought the new USB DAC 301 from AudioDIYLab? For $90, it seems like a nice project.

My friend has an AA/AAA battery charger. If I were to connect a C battery holder to the + and - terminals, would it be able to charge a C battery? Could this work? The multi-type charges are quite a bit more expensive. I'm wondering if it as easy as adding a battery connector to the chain.

I have some 3.5mm connectors with 4 conductors. I know there's left, right, and ground. But what does the fourth one do? I've read that the fourth is used for video, then on another site, it says it is used to supply additional power. So I'm guessing the actual usage is dependent on the...

I'm planning to purchase a drill press; nothing fancy, just something with enough to get by. There are a couple of models at Harbor Freight that are in the same price range, but I don't know what the differences are. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=44505...

This was my first attempt at soldering. I used the other half of the protoboard to practice before attempting the real build. I'm using the Hakko 936ESD for the soldering iron, and 0.020 eutectic solder. For "helping hands," I bought a Panavise 301. It seem more useful than the Panavise Jr. I...

I've been at odds on whether to go for a solid state amp or tube amp. For solid state, I'm thinking of getting a Corda Aria and perhaps upgrading to an Opera later. Reading some of the tube threads has got my head spinning. Can anyone make recommendations on good tube amps at different price...

I bought this together with my amp. Does anybody know which version this is? It doesn't look like any of the ones listed at ALO. Just to give an idea of size, it's on a pack of 3x5 index cards.

Is there any special markings that would differentiate the old version from the new version (e.g. different Label or Serial Number)?
