Want To Buy Driver for Hifiman HE560 v3 (sell me your busted HE560)

- Or best offer
- Ships to
- Anywhere
One of the drivers in my HE560 v3 has crapped out. Way out of warranty so I'm fixing this myself. So if you have a busted HE560 laying around, I want it. Ideally you have the tools to desolder and send me just the driver to save on shipping. But I'll take the whole set if not, not going to...- Kitchener

The Entry Level Stax Thread
It seems most people are lucky with vintage Stax setups, I however will never fork over a dime for a vintage Stax setup. I bought a used Lambda Pro with an SRM-313 amp. It was my first Stax and it blew me away. For a month. Then one of the earspeakers crapped out (dust in the driver or...- Kitchener

Vesper audio custom earpads impressions thread
I'd say you buried the lede there as far as I'm concerned; love your keyboard.:beerchug: Split ortho is the the only way. I'm glad you don't have a trackball there, otherwise I might start suspecting you to be my lost twin. -

Topping NX4
Got a NX4DSD from ebay seller forexmen about a month ago. I've been using it with my iPhone 6S + and Macbook Pro to drive my HE-560 and it drives them quite well, haven't noticed any abnormalities. It runs straight from my iPhone 6S + with the supplied Lightning to Micro USB cable without...- Kitchener

"Millett Hybrid" redux: NuHybrid headphone amp, using the Korg Nutube
Yeah, that adds up! Thanks a lot. Now I can start planning a neat little case for it. This will be my next project once I finish the Jonokuchi I've got lined up. -in fact, I'm the pain in the rear that's been pestering you on eBay :beyersmile:- Kitchener

"Millett Hybrid" redux: NuHybrid headphone amp, using the Korg Nutube
Great info there, thanks a lot Pete. That carrier PCB should definitely be helpful, I'm looking at the Nutube (NT) data sheet and (I have to admit that I am, pardon my french, a dumbass) I am having trouble with the pins on the NT. Would I just run wires from the same connectors as the NT pins...- Kitchener

"Millett Hybrid" redux: NuHybrid headphone amp, using the Korg Nutube
This might be a stupid question, would it be possible to lift the Nutube off the PCB and run wires from the pins to the PCB? -And then mount the Nutube to the chassis with, I don't know, a simple DIY bracket. I suppose the pins are quite soft and prone to snapping if you apply any force to them...- Kitchener

The Entry Level Stax Thread
Anyone have any experience running the SRD-7 (or similar) with a low power amps like the Bottlehead SEX? The SRD-7 manual states 10 Watts minimum but at least one forumite I can recall from over on Bottlehead states he's pleased with the results but I would like a little more in depth feedback...- Kitchener

Mitchell & Johnson - Electrostatz, 2 way hybrid, Headphones Appreciation and Impressions Thread!
No?! They do?! Ah, curse me for not asking. Well, maybe not, I quite like regular leather anyway. I ordered two different pairs toghether; one for the MJ2 and one for my HE-560. Both totalled at €128,50, don't know if one was more expensive than the other. So €64,25 each? -About $85- Kitchener

Mitchell & Johnson - Electrostatz, 2 way hybrid, Headphones Appreciation and Impressions Thread!
Yeah I don't really know what they offer besides "leather" and alcantara. I just asked for leather, I'm a simple man, didn't bother asking for alternatives. So far I've got brown leather pads for my Stax L500, black leather pads for my HE-560 and black/white for the MJ2. All by Vesper, as it...- Kitchener
