After reading some posts about modding the OBH-11 I got the idea to mod my OBH-11SE. I understand that a remarkable boost in sound quality can be achived by replacing the Samwha capacitors with Elna Cerafine ones. Here's a list of capacitors on my OBH-11SE board: 1 x 63V 220uF 2 x 50V 470uF...

I'm soon graduating from highschool and moving on to college. One of my great interest are headamps so I thought: why not take en aducation so I can learn to build these things? Maybe this isn't the right place to ask but is civil engineer in elctronics what I am looking for? I thought maybe...

I got the "Highlights from the complete Miles Davis at Montreux" from the library. I listened to it 24/7 but I had to return it, so now I'm listening to "Miles Davis: Live Around the World". It's kick-ass trumpet-playing/guitar-slammin'/head-shakin' music, just got to love. I just can't wait for...

I live in Denmark and it's the same here: Grados are way more expensive than Senns. The grado SR125 cost exactly the same as a pair of HD600's, which is about $278. Roughly, I think you have 2 options here: 1. This is your last headphone related equipment, you'll ever buy or you simply don't...

Hmmm... my setup is: Thule CD 100 II -> Creek OBH-11SE -> HD600 Wouldn't you also say that it is the Creek that is the weakest link here? Where I live the Creek is roughly $300. Which amplifier should I consider if I max. want to spent $500? Maybe the Corda Headamp ($345)?

My system is: Sennheiser HD600 Creek OBH11SE Sonic Link Whisper inteconnects Kenwood DP-900 CD player (1985) As you can see, my CD player isn't the best in the world so yesterday I went to a HIFI store and listened to some newer models (Marantz CD6000OSE, Cambridge D500SE, Thule CD 100...

1. Sennheiser HD-433 2. Grado SR-60 3. Sennhesier HD600

Thank you for your replys! To make things clear the dealer wrongfully sent me an SE !(I did only pay for the OBH-11). So he's only obligated to send me the regular version :-( I think there's 1½ year warranty left so I'll just tape the on/off button at on possition on the backplate. If...

When I bought an OBH-11 some time ago I actually got the SE version. Maybe because I had also bought the regulated powersupply that comes with the SE. Now, the powerbutton on my SE is broken and I'm returning it to the store. On my warranty-papers it says that I bought an OBH-11 so maybe they'll...

Here's a site dedicated to girls wearing headphones! http://listen.to/headph0nes Maybe a little OT ;-)

About a year ago i borrowed "We Want Miles", an live recording from 1981 with Miles Davis. At that time I had a pair of SR60's and I found the bass to be too loud/annoying. When I got my HD600's I tried to listen to it again and found it to be listenable. The bass isn't overdone but the overall...

Where I live their price is pretty much the same. I'm hearing good things about both player and I can't really figure out which one is the best. Which player would you prefer? hinors14

Quote: Originally posted by Magic77 I did think they sounded Bassier through the Little and Brighter through the Creek, but I guess it also depends on the recording that is listened to. OK. I do also have the HD600's plugged into the Creek OBH11SE and I feel quite a lot of bass. On...

What are the 3 best headphone amplifiers for the HD600s. What do they cost? (there is no limit on the price)

Well, I pay the same $220 as Jan Meier sells them for, so it should not be for the money. My dealer is very nice and gives me 3 years warranty and besides it's easy for me if they're brake: I'll just have to send them domestic. If I live in the US, however, I would shurely order from Jan Meier!
