    Orthodynamic Roundup

    I'm trying to figure out a way to make this thread more portable.  I normally have very limited web access and would like to have a non-web-based version I can pore over on my personal machine.   There are 968 pages.  Rather than reinvent the wheel, has anyone already saved a version (pdf or...

    Burning in, even on home made drivers?

    Hey, thanks for the response, man.  It's probably beyond my capacity, but might be fun for a project.

    What makes you happy today?

    Internet access for the first time since last week is certainly a bonus!

    Beyer 770 600ohm, any users?

    I think there's an alternative to the velour pads. I have leather on the Strawberry Donuts that I'm trying to get rid of (the leather, not the cans) so I got some of the new gel pads from Beyer; the look to be essentially the same dimensions as my leather earpads, which, in turn look about...

    Where does one look for differing methods of DIY driver construction?

    Why does everyone like Grados?

    The only two pairs of Grados I've heard were my HF-1's (via Headphile) and iGrados. In each case, though, I heard the same characteristics I've heard ascribed to Grados across the board: clear, warm, and well balanced. They aren't the most detailed, but they are anything but sloppy. I don't...

    Low Profile IEM's?

    I have a set of Shure 530's that need recabling. I got to thinking the other day, though, that it would be nice if I could get some new IEM's that would fit beneath my Peltor Sound Trap hearing protectors (like full-sized cans but without the fun). The 530's get press into my ear canals...

    What is your most emotionally involving headphones/rig?

    I have really been enjoying Headphile-modded HF-1's like nothing else. They seem to run best for me through the C&C XO amp vice the Beresford built-in headphone amp on the 7520. I haven't much else here with me to compare against, in the way of amps. If HF-1's are making me [very] happy...

    My New Album, Rabbit Dream

    Hey, Ace (?) I'm not seeing the single on either your site or on the cdbaby site. I dug the streamable tracks and definitely want more. What do I do?

    Beyer Experts...I need a closed DT990!

    I haven't tried them yet, but the 600 ohm DT 770's seem to be well regarded. Moon Audio has them recabled with Blue and Black Dragon cables and proprietary visual cues. I'm hoping to try a pair out next time I'm in the States, but they certainly look good. Beyerdynamic Headphones

    What PC should I get....

    But does the netbook package have good quality internals? I've been enjoying a Toshiba NT250 (?) for the last few months, but build quality seems short in most respects. Is the ASUS that much better?
