    Fatty Flats, a new Grado pad mod

    After reading about the new bowls inside out mod, I would like to mention another mod that I tried some time ago: the "Fatty Flats" . I talked about it in Auriculares.org. It's nothing radical, just a variant of the classic flats using two filler foam strips of about 6mm to move away the driver...

    Closed ones for nocturnal listening...

    I think I will recommend the Darth Beyers. They have excellent isolation, very good bass and a nice soundstage. I prefer them to DX1000. In bed I tend to use big cans. I find them easier to remove and put over the bedside table. With IEMs and other small headphones I always end tangled with cables

    Volume normalization bad? Why? If you are doing it right it shouldn't be any problem. I'm normalizing with iVolume too. Great software.

    Yes, the modded SR225s are heavy, more or less like the PS1. Not very comfortable. They need a reinforced and better padded headband, issue that I'm sure Picodeloro will adress in the near future. The mod does not have a "name" still. Picodeloro is calling it SR225 HD (heavy duty), but I...
