Dear God, what have I wrought?
What's wrong with foam? Just want to let you know that you are missing out. A properly designed Tumult in a sealed box, with 2 of these passive radiators will sound so much better and much much louder than your current set up, with NO distortion. How are low frequency produced? By pushing crap...- Irons82

DIY HD590 cable upgrade?
You know, I'm thinking...Why bother with the tiny little 2.5mm plug? Why couldn't we have both end of the cable 6.3mm plug and use a high-quality adapter. That way, the cable is a lot more versatile, not to mention much easier to make too. What do you think- Irons82

DIY HD590 cable upgrade?
OK, after 4 hours of labouring, my fruit of labor is done. It looked great . However, I didn't do a good job on the 2.5mm plug. FYI, the Nectec 2.5mm plug DOES fit my HD495. I would imagine it should fit just fine on the HD595 (which should be on my door in 1-2 days). The fit was VERY tight on...- Irons82

DIY HD590 cable upgrade?
*UPDATE* Cables and connectors from Markertek have arrived! Damn the Canare cable is fat. I don't know if I could shove both cables down the poor 2.5mm connector's throat. I'll see. Order from Partsexpress.com is taking its time. Until they arrive, I could only sit and stare at the Canare...- Irons82

Quote: Originally posted by Orpheus i couldn't even fit one into a mini plug, much less this ultra thin 2.5mm plug.dean Thanks for the reply. I have an idea though. Since the connector is so small, why bother? Why can't we use a 6.3mm connector, and use an adapter so it's like this...
