edit: actually due to financial circumstances, i won't be able to purchase these cables for a few months :( ... they will still be around right?

I am currently running 14V with my Grado HF-1, it sounds pretty good so far. Can't wait till the tubes are broken in.

thanks tomb! i did exactly what you said, turning the other direction did the trick. I didn't realize how many times i need to turn before the voltage starts dropping. I was afraid to send too much voltage being sent through. Its the opposite direction as the DB

I finished building my Minimax, and is just trying to bias all the stuff at the moment. The tube bias is giving me some problem. diyforums says that the prefered range for the tube voltage from the 2 test points are each supposed to be half the powersupply (~12-14V)but mine is at 21V with my...

does anyone know which way to connect the UE cable to these? do we have the etched "R" and "L" letters facing away from the face or towards?

sounds interesting, I put down a order through live.com last week for a pair fo C3. and have setup a appointmetn for impression next week with my school's hearing center

are the boards here ?! i got in the case group buy but can't seem to find the board for the minimax anywhere

I'm interested in a board too, can you hold one for me?

oooh!! thank you!! found the problem with the input joints... looks like I have overlooked the input and output connections now i jus tneed to get everything cased up and it should be good to go!

does haveing a 150ohm resistor at R6 and R16 causing the volume decrease? I still dont think it would causes such a drastic drop in volume though Update: I bypassed the R6 and R16, the music volume is louder now, but the bass remains at the same volume, very shallow and not what I expect a...

found the problem! while i was checking the joints i noticed that I had the R7 and R8 reversed (and also their counter part for the other channel) after switching the resistors I was able to adjust the voltage to 40. But i got a new problem. After trying the amp with a pair of cheap headphone...

I just finished populating a SOHA kit that I got from glass jar audio, I'm doing some test with the voltages, all the points checks out except for the 2 marked as +40v I know i have to adjust the pots to get it to 40v, but I cant seem to get the voltage pass 30V, then turning hte pot who have...

aww boo, I love the k518dj sound... I'm keeping it even after I got a pair of HF-1, I'm trying to sell my k141 though well good luck finding something. I do have a sextett that I'm fixing up, would you be interested?

I've A B between my ipod classic and diymodded ipod nano (roughly 70 hours burn-in now), this is what I thought: DIYmodded nano: better bass handling, more detailed highs. ipod classic: a slightly more expansive soundstage

I wonder if i can ask them to attach that wire in the opposite direction (upwards) so I can wear them over the ear like all the other custom IEM's

I'd use valcro to hold the cable. I do that with all the headphones I use at home, so I can have the option to uncoil it. this is where I got the: Hook and Loop Fastener , Cable Ties, Computer Cable Organizers, Rubber Grommet, Velcro Cable Ties, Wire Wrap

i just bought #373 from 3x331m

i was afraid to damage the ring. but I will give that a try later today. I need to go to class soon

how did you pop the ring of plastic off? I'm having the hardest time getting off. I'm cleaning outthe old phone so that I dont get all these black gooy things (most likely the disintegrating foam) on me when I use my sextetts

oh, good idea not to go outside when any sport team wins or looses, a couple some kid at my school got killed when the Yankees won the world series here

many people's got PX100/200 at my school (Northeastern University), even saw 2 professors walking around with one on before

I can always put my multifilament nylon on it, but I'm saying, sonically, which is better?

I just tried calling frank about a order I placed back in Nov. I got his voicemail... and it was full, so I could not even leave my phone number for him to call back. come to think of it, out of the 5 times I've called him, he never picked up, and I was only able to record a voicemail 2 out...

I have recently acquired a sextett in pretty bad condition, I have ordered parts to clean and fix it up. But now here's the 2 dilemma: -Should I use the spare AKG stock cable from another one of my vintage AKG that I had re-cabled to keep the unit "stock" (or OEM) or re-cable it (but that...

thnx, I will. meanwhile, how did the rest of you with a nice leather HF-1, how did you get hold of those nice headbands?
