Alright, did the signal generator test and 50-60 hz seems to be really bad. Took the left driver out and held it up to my ear - perfect. Put it back in the cup - buzz galore. I did this a few times, blew out the back of the driver with canned air, re assembled - still buzzing. Tried re routing...

Thanks guys sorry for the slow reply, I thought I had set up the thread to email me updates... anyway the driver looks nice and clean. equipment doesn't seem change anything. also thought it could have been the recording so I tried some flac files and still no change and also the...

So I have had these DT770/80s for about two and a half years, have been listening to them on average 4 hours a day. Have over driven them a few times with the Starving Student Amp and now the left hand side is buzzing. It seems to be really bad below 150 hz and at any volume you can hear it, no...

Got a couple for ya - just finished my 1911 porting and DuraCoat   The two guns are a Taurus PT1911 45 ACP and a Sig Sauer P250 in 9mm   Taurus before DuraCoat   And in case you are wondering whether the compensator works check this one out Here is the whole...

Wow, this is awesome - I can't  believe I won!   Thanks james444   I'm gonna go with the Atrios - really excited to hear them!   Thanks so much and hopefully some day I can do the same and give back to the community

Ha! Not quite - not real wild about the color but that's what the store had.  

^^ Nice haha, anyway my apologies for not getting these up sooner. They could use some trimming but they work for now so I'm not messing with them

Actually I think you could make an SE530 work. I believe the key is to have the removable tips, otherwise there is nothing for the plug to grab on to.

Radians offers a custom molded ear plug that you can make at home for about $15. If anyone is in need of hearing protection I would highly recommend them. I shoot competitively and I can wear these plugs all day without any discomfort. I also use them on my motorcycle under my helmet - again...

This is great! Thanks for doing this. I have heard good things about the atrios- I almost bought them when I was looking for iem's. They seem like a good choice for a basshead like me

I think my DT770s are going to have a hard time outperforming my 12'' sub under my desk ;-) But I am interested in changing drivers on my cards - didn't even know there were other drivers out there. So the beyers are supposed to be a closed back design(from beyer's website) - but you say...

^^ X2 Here is the link to the dell website where I found the specs A40 Gaming Headset - Black : Gaming: Console | Dell The sensitivity is basically the relationship between power coming in and volume heard. So the higher the sensitivity the less power it takes to create the same sound...

Welcome to Head-Fi ( sorry about your wallet )! I'll try to help you out a bit here - I have the DT770/80's and I will say without an amp of some sort the bass is just not good. The 32 ohm version should be a bit easier to drive but taking a quick look at the specs says different. The...

Surely no one on this forum...

Are Dayton components high quality or are there better ones? I am interested in possibly building bookshelf speakers and a sub, most of the places I have looked have cheaper parts than Dayton stuff but I am worried about the quality. What sort of brands seem to be the best?

^^ I like it. Make everything - you get what you want and you should be able to get better components and end up with an overall better system. I will be interested to see how it turns out for you.

interesting thoughts, I used a port from a 10" sub and I have tried plugging it with rags but nothing seems to help a lot. The 4 - 8 ohm mismatch isn't helping me either. Pretty sure that the main problem is the box is way too big and it probably leaks as well. I think when I get some time I...

kinda have the same problem with my setup - I am trying to use a 12" Kicker car sub in a custom fiberglass ported enclosure with a JBL home theater sub amp ~150W. It's loud but it lacks any punch at all, the car subs are usually 4 ohm and HT stuff is usually 8 ohm. I think this may be causing...

Skylab, I would like to grab the black LOD, let me know how to send you my address

I would recommend something like the klipsch custom series, they have the semi rigid over the ear piece - I wore my custom 3's under my full face helmet for a 1000 mile ride and only had them start coming out in the last 40 miles. All that riding was interstate at about 80 - 85 mph. Hope this...

2 years? Lucky... mine was 5 years ago. Congrats anyway

dallasstar, I would have to give one vote for the klipsch RPW-10. For a home theater setup it is about perfect for under $2000. The problem that I noticed with the 12in and 15in subs is they tend to be less dynamic than the 10in. Meaning the 10in offers a punchier sound. The only bad thing about...

at Orubasarot I am very happy with the bass response of the Klipsch Custom 3's - they out perform my DT770s even without an amp. However the cable really sucks, I suggest them because they have a very well rounded sound and after about 5 months of listening to them they have become my...
