Any meets in the Wisconsin Area? (Milwaukee, Madison, Fox Valley, Chicago)
I'm down in Madison but could also come to Stevens Point area. I have Senn HD600, Schiit Magni/Modi, Rega Planar 3. I know a buddy in the Stevens Point area with AT M70, some Pioneer BS22s and other items would be willing as well (not currently active on HeadFi)- frogstomp88

Broken Grado 125i headphones voice coil? Fix - Help
Alrighty, that's the first thing I'll try to take care of. I think I can pull out the dents with the tape method... Steps in taking the drivers out: 1. Remove headband. 2. Heat up cups where the grill slides on. (Blow-dryer or 1/4" of hot water) 3. Slightly file down the black 'bumps'...- frogstomp88
