...or any appreciable wear. I got these used 1 year ago and used them very minimally. Maybe 25 hours on my head, max. They sound fantastic. Just not *quite* in the same league as my HE-6, though, in my opinion. From what I can tell, they're barely broken in! I will double box everything, with...- Tingc222

Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition
Just write on the ebay msg with a reply stating that the blue hawaii has electrostatic headphone jacks designed for much higher voltage handling, and cannot be used for the non-electrostatic headphones in question. Modification to allow the T1 to be plugged into the blue hawaii would cause the...- Tingc222

Hifiman HE-400i and HE-560: From CES to Pre-Launch
Parts of the HD800 chassis is some form of glass-plastic blend, making it extremely rigid for the same weight. It's nothing short of rocket science, that HD800 thing :)- Tingc222

Hifiman HE-400i and HE-560: From CES to Pre-Launch
The He-6 is slightly bright, quite dynamic. I think he meant not warm as in = dark? The HD650 for instance is a very dark phone to my ears, but not the HE-6- Tingc222

Hifiman HE-400i and HE-560: From CES to Pre-Launch
I'm certain sennheiser poured many more times the amount of dough into R&D than Hifiman, Audeze, or any of the other well-received companies did for their phones. This is especially true for the HD800. There are nuances and special design considerations (plastic material, driver design...- Tingc222

McIntosh MHP1000 Headphones Announced in CES
What people appreciate about McIntosh is that it's all made in-house, by hand, and with a pedigree. Fans enjoy the unique sound - bold, dynamic, and quintessentially American. To capitalize in an enthusiast-driven market such as headphones requires the company to have pedigree, significant...- Tingc222

Hifiman HE-400i and HE-560: From CES to Pre-Launch
Passing on the thoughts of a friend of mine, the massive weight reduction is mightly suspect for a switch to the "single-ended" driver design as present in the HE-400. IF that's true, it's a movement towards lowering production cost while effectively changing the linearity of the magnetic...- Tingc222

Re: Attenuator/impedance matcher for HE-6
Interesting...can you explain why the parallel resistor would not decrease load impedance? From what I understand, a 50hm headphone and a 8-ohm parallel resistor should give a 7ohm total load impedance, hence matching it to the 8ohm sepaker out...- Tingc222

Best looking tube amp
I hope to be purchasing a great condition pair of the McIntosh MC60s for powering my upcoming HE-6 prototypes (Maybe considering showing up at a headphone meet with it?? ). In my opinion, Mac gear is stunning looking (a nice combination of industrial and retro-American), and the early monoblocks...- Tingc222

Re: Attenuator/impedance matcher for HE-6
Thanks for your help nikongod. That's what I came to realize in my sleep last night :) Interestingly, the HE-adapter is not built using the typical L-pad configuration from what I can tell. It uses a 10R in parallel but a 25R in series, coming AFTER the parallel connection for the...- Tingc222

Re: Attenuator/impedance matcher for HE-6
Hi All! I'm in the process of building a speaker terminal adapter for the HE-6 (~50-65Ohm, purely resistive). Here's what I've gathered so far. This is for anticipated use with 25 to 75 W per channel speaker amps (with one tube amp at 75W/ch) with output impedance of approximately...- Tingc222

Amps that can drive the HiFiMan HE-6 planar headphones
Interesting question that's been bothering me. If we use the headphone outputs from a speaker amp (ie. front panel), which are usually in-line with the speaker outs but with serial resistors, wouldn't the output impedance be....stratospheric? And if so, are we not better off just using...- Tingc222

Mission: Replace the HiFiMAN ear pads with other brand ear pads
Quote: I had to cut the plastic support rings from my pleathers down into an oval while preserving the rectangular cutouts of the tabs to maintain structural integrity of the tabs. This way, no need for glue or too much stretching. Unfortunately you lose a pair of pleathers.- Tingc222
