Certainly not an expert, but when I was setting the wings on this pair, I did a lot if tap and listen, to ensure equal sound response on left and right. The effect was perceptable during the sanding and finishing steps, and very noticable while placing the screens. I finally settled on a thin...

I am trying to burn up the minimum number of posts requirement, so I can post some photos of some custom Grado wooden cups. I don't really want to clog up the board with useless messages, but I really don't have much to say yet that I can without a little bit of visual support. I feel as though...

...so can anyone point me toward a mathematical or empirically data-driven set of general truths for ideal (specified standard) cup tuning? Specifically, I'm wondering if there are any decent studies using tone-generators, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, etc. that could provide the...

...so first of all, I'm brand new to Head-Fi.  Way back in my Navy days, I bought an Aiwa recording cassette player. I think it was the JX3000, and I seem to remember that it sounded AWESOME. Fast forward a bunch of years, I've lost about 6 jobs since then, been repo'd, evicted, homeless, and...
