I'm glad you like it. Actually, they fitted so good that, when I left them inside the cups (not very smart, I know) for a couple of weeks, I had a really hard time to get them out again (probably due to the expansion of the wood because of the different climate or the oil sticking to the walls...

Well... it took me almost forever, but finally I managed to find some spare time to finish a build and I just wanted to share it with you guys (sorry for the terrible pictures): Some info, just in case anyone is interested: Headband: Turbulent Labs Grado leather headband XL (inner...

Great! Already ordered a pair, hopefully the discount will compesate the customs. Many thanks for your help TravAndAlex, much appreciated!

I can't see any discount applied on their web site, do you have to use a promo code or something or is it just that the sale has not started yet? Many thanks for the heads up!!!!

Thanks! I'm going with a DIY cable. Basically 4 strands of 24AWG 6N OCC Copper with a .50 microns gold plating twisted together, covered with teflon insulation, covered with a cotton sleeve, covered with a copper mesh, another layer of teflon and a nylon multifilament sleeve. This is a (very...

You are very welcome! For the headband I've ordered a Turbulent Labs black XL headband. Did some DIY headbands in the past, but this time I going for a more "professional" look (plus I don't relly have the time for that now). These are the cups that I'm using for this build (I have to...

So a few weeks ago I asked if anyone here had ordered from Concord Custom Lab in the past, but no one seemed to know about them. I went ahead and ordered a set of aluminium gimbals and rod-blocks for a project that has been laying around for years now, and this week I received the packet. Since...

:joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy::joy: Man, I'm so desperate for a set of good quality gimbals (built myself a couple of sets, but they are not professional enough) that I don't even care anymore. Putin himself can come and drag me out of my house with his own hands as long as I'm wearing my...

I believe that they're from Moscow, but I'm not completely sure. They are from Russia for sure.

Thanks! I've been considering Shipibo gimbals/rod-blocks as well, but the product is listed as no longer available on their Etsy store. Anyhow, Shipibo stuff looks terrific, but I like better the aesthetics of CCL gimbals/rod-blocks. So... no one here has any experience with them?. Guess I'll...

Hi, I've been looking for a set of aluminium rodblocks and gimbals for a while now and I've been considering the ones from Concord Custom Lab. Has nayone here had any experience with them?. Many thanks for your help!

Much appreciated! Thanks!

  Thanks for the tip, I've contacted him and he already answered. Do you have the ones that you purchased with you? If so... how are they compared to Martin's ones?   Many thanks for your help!!!

  Looks great!, congratulations. I also have a set of wooden sleeved alloy cups and a pair of drivers... if I could only get a set of Martin's gimbals and rodblocks...

  You were lucky then.   If you are in contact with him... could you ask him if he is still selling gimbals and rodblocks, please? I'm desperately looking for a pair. Many thanks for your help!

  Many thanks for your suggestion, I will definitely consider those gimbals as an alternative. The problem is that I also need the rodblocks, and, to be honest I think that Martin's gimbals are better finished, and I don't mind paying a higher price for something that is well built.   Thanks! ;)

Does anyone here have any news about Martin?   I've tryied to contact him several times but unfortunately I had no luck. I just wanted to know if he is still selling his aluminium gimbals/rodblocks, I'm desperately after a pair to finish a build I have in process.   Many thanks for your help!

  Thanks Headcan!   Actually, I already knew about Gamja Labs, and their stuff sure seems great, but honestly I was looking for something a little bit more "professional" if you know what I mean. If I can't get my hands on a pair of Martin's gimbals then I might end up using my own diy ones...

Guys,   Anyone here has any contact with Martin from Martin Custom Audio? I'm looking for a set of his fantastic aluminium gimbals/rodblocks for a build I have in mind (with V6 drivers), but he is not replying to my emails. I know he posted a message explaining that he is quite busy right now...

If you want to have an idea of how your cups would look like with tung oil, here are mines: http://www.head-fi.org/t/576717/grado-modders-go-magnum/1665#post_8570145. I don't have pictures of how they were before the oiling, but they looked almost identical to yours right now.   Regarding...

Great work Rav, they look awesome!!!!!    I bought the mesh for my woodies here: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/MeshCompany (they also have a web: http://www.themeshcompany.com/), great stuff.   As per the finish... after several failed attempts of spraying transparent lacquer (every single...

Quote: Thanks!!   I did a mod to a set of sr60 with the same gimbal/rod set and posted some pictures of the modding process in an Spanish forum, maybe you'll find what you need in that thread: http://www.auriculares.org/foro/index.php?topic=5912.0. It's in spanish but hopefully you can...

I've just finished my Magnums. V4 drivers, Cabillas cups, DIY aluminium rods and gimbals, DIY mahogany and leather headband, cardas wire and furutech connector. A few pics:                 Hope you like it :)

Quote:   I don't think so either. I've dealed with him a few times and he has always been a great person to get on with, taking so much care of everything and being extremely helpfull when things went wrong (even when he had no resposibility at all). He is a really nice man, simply not...

  WOW! Those look amazing!! Grado should take note for for future versions. I've tryied to improve my SR-60 in the same way (more or less): http://www.head-fi.org/t/119314/post-your-grado-mods/1740#post_7716956, but they don't even come close to your design. Don't give up, I want to see those...
