Wow! Please count me in as well. This is going to an amazing meetup. I will be roaming around with a dacport and some hd650s/600s so i won't need table space. Yahoo!

Wow! This is gonna be such a sweet meetup. Really looking forward to this!

Quote: Thanks for the update. I was just wondering about that. I might just have to order me a set to experiment with. I just put in an order to parts express to try out some of the their full range 2 inch speakers. I'll let you know what I come up with. Keep us posted on those ribbon drivers!

Good tip thanks I'm gonna order a pair of those.  

Thanks for posting the link to your build process please keep us updated with how they are turning out.   I was having some really good results recupping a a second hand Grado Prestige Series SR-60i  last night- doing a sort of thunderpants treatment that seems to be working well.   So...

LOL! Didn't mean to start a war of which is the 'best' headphones. Engineering aside these things are pretty subjective. I was just looking for a way of getting a slightly more scientific 'snapshot' if you will of my incremental mods. As Listening, Adjusting, Listing, Adjusting is great but can...

Nice one! Thanks for the insight. I guess what would be really helpful after building such a rig would be to try and get a hold of some "good" headphones and to make my own measurements, that way even if the mics aren't as amazingly accurate as something really high-end dummy head at least I...

So after much scouring of the interwebs I found this magical page - http://www.digikey.com/product-search/en/audio-products/speakers/720966   Lot's of  really interesting headphone driver options for cheap. Now I'm excited to do some building!

Hey Guys,   So I'd really like to have a way to start taking measurements of my DIY experimental headphones. I know a lot of the pro's use this beast - Neumann KU 100 dummy head (which runs about $6000) .....   I was wondering if anyone has had any luck building their own with a couple...

Quote:   Did you git the ribbon tweeter? Let us know how it sounds.

Those look cool but the frequency response is 6000 - 25000 HZ which is only the very high plus air frequencys which is great for for a tweeter but wouldn't work in headphones. That's why I was looking at 'full frequency' drivers/speakers like these -   HiWave BMR5 Compact 2" Full-Range...

Sweet. I'm so looking forward to this! I can definitely kick in a donation towards the cost as well. Don't know what we are doing for coffee but I would be happy to bring some of those Starbucks (13 cup) boxes so we can all stay nice and caffeinated while we talk about and listen to some mighty...

Hah. Love the coat hanger headband! I'm gonna do some experimenting and if I don't die in the process ill report back!

Super interested in attending. I've got a benchmark dac1 and some interestingly modified shure 1840's. would love to be a part of this.

Wrong thread.
