I already took out one of the yellow felt sheets from my open back drivers, I will try with both removed (leaving the third glued one of course) but do you guys think there's any risk to the headphones without at least one of those sheets of felt in place to help protect the driver and wiring...

(45 ohm open-back configuration) I took the recommendation that someone else posted about modifying the Equalizer APO rock preset, and this is what I have so far. Soundstage is pretty crazy with this, I had to double check the effects to make sure some kind of crossfade wasn't being applied...

I'm switching back to the open-back grills and listening that way. The closed cups do sound good with the damping in them, but that setup is even heavier than my LCD-Xs. And honestly, I can prevent sound leakage and get isolation, while still enjoying some of that wonderful planar sound with...

I think my previous post came off a bit more negatively than I intended. I will say that the closed-back configuration doesn't...well, it doesn't sound like a closed-back, at least compared to others I've heard. The most direct comparison I can make is my HyperX Cloud Orbits, which are...

I'm still working on my own impressions of the Sash Tres 45ohm. I wanted them to be closed back, because I already have Audeze LCD-X (2021 revision). I can tell you with the open back grills, the Tres, at least on first listen, does not make me want to sell my LCD-X...they don't have quite the...

Heavy felt being the material provided with the headphones? Or your own material?

Got mine too. On Ukraine's independence day no less. Slava Ukraine! Listening now.

Just got an update that the headphones arrived in the USA. I'm assuming the port is in New York.

Wow, 8 days from Ukraine to New York? I'm on day 20 and there hasn't been any tracking update since the 2nd. I'm not worried yet but I'm definitely eager to get my hands on them.

My LCD-X with the Audeze leather pads give me that kind of suction cup feeling too. Man, I can't wait to hear the Tres 45ohm when it gets here. I've heard a handful of planars, but the LCD-X is the only "high-end" one. I have the HyperX Cloud Orbit (Audeze Mobius without bluetooth) and I had...

My Tres 45ohm are apparently scheduled to ship on Monday! Woohoo! He even said he thinks shipping to the US is ~2-3 weeks. That seems optimistic given the state of the world right now but we'll see!

I wonder if that headband is compatible with other LCD series headphones like the LCD-X.

I got the impression that he'll make the foam cut outs according to the options you choose, so if you don't get a pair of additional cups, I don't think the gift box would have a cut out for them.

How much sound leakage on the semi-open cups? I originally planned on doing open + semi-open but Sasha convinced me to go closed for my second cups. I really want to run these with a closed or semi-open cup to be honest; I already have Audeze LCD-X and aesthetically, while these are good...

Since we're sharing the configuration of our orders, I put an order in for the 45 ohm Tres in the reddish-brown color and shiny finish (so similar to a nice rich mahogany) with open + closed cups and leather + velour pads, the gift box, and a 1.2m cable terminating in 2.5mm balanced.
