    Audeze's Black Box Beta Impressions: The DDA-1

    I was selected from the head-fi community by Audeze to beta test a "black box" DDA-1. I recieved an early version of the DDA-1 with a pair of their EL-8 open headphones. I'd like to say again that this is a beta test of the product, the final version is still being worked on. I'm not affiliated...

      Good to see some old faces are still here. A little surprising actually.

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

      I have heard that. I might be wrong but I think he just has the side with the cable hole in it, and lots of them.   Considering my T50RP have broken and been repaired at least twenty times over the years, I'm pretty attached to these things. They've been stepped on, beaten up, scratched...

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    So I have drilled a great many holes into my poor T50RP housings. Does anybody have any idea of a way to fill these and paint them? Currently I have clay packed in and a piece of electrical tape covering it. I'd like to sand it flush or something but I honestly haven't heard of anything to use...

    Wow, the 3D printed wave guides look really cool. Perhaps I missed it but what do I need to do to print some myself?

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    I've started work on my own open T50RP. Feel free to comment on my goals or methodology. The end goal is a pair of "poor man's open t50rp."   I have access to a wide variety of materials. An enclosure will alter the sound. I'm more interested in how an enclosure would alter the sound from an...

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

    Lots of good posts since I last logged in.   Has anyone measured a stock T50RP driver inside an open housing before? Has anyone attempted to tune something like that? I have a brand new T50RP and a pair of machined open housings that some kind person here sent to me. I'd love to do some graphs...

    Cannot change password

    Something is going wrong somewhere. When I go to change my account's password I get a message "You did not enter your old password correctly."   So I log out and log back in to change it and it's still not working. I switch from firefox to chrome and still not working. It's worth noting that I...

    Dallas, TX - Sunday, June 1st, 2014 - "The Fickle Force of June" meetup

    I'll try and attend this time, although I think I've said that 4-5 times in the past and never showed up. I have a T50RP and O2 amp and ODAC.

    That looks pretty bad. You can scrape the bit of copper on the path to the pads and solder directly there and hope it works. Glue it up afterwards.

    Fostex T50RP Incremental Mods and Measurements

      So I got my driver working again. I didn't take pictures or anything, and my result wasn't clean.   I tried to scrape the plastic coating off and expose the copper, but was entirely unsuccessful. I ended up scraping a hole straight through it, sort of concave in shape. I figured some copper...

      Awesome. I'll give it a try tomorrow. Thanks for the help, I'll report back.   I wasn't ever happy with the quantity of bass I was able to achieve and rereading this thread has inspired me to give it another shot.

    So I managed to rip the solder pad right off my driver in a fit of drunken incompetence. Has anyone ever repaired something like that before, or should I just buy another pair?

    Confirmed for going. I'll be bringing my T50RP, my grados (which are beat to hell) and my O2/ODAC. Also some cheap headphones.

    This thread was infinitely helpful for my mods. Thanks.   Would anyone care to describe what adding plasticine does to the sound? OP's graph depicting it also included the felt and acoustipack.

    Dallas, TX - "Deux for 2012", a not-quite-as-mini meet - Sunday, October 14th

    I'll be bringing my T50RP, my ruined pair of sr60is, my grubDAC (cheapish DIY dac), and my laptop + burned CDs. I'll also be bringing my Q audio interconnects if anyone is interested.   I used to have an ipod, but it was stolen. Kind of bummed about that still.   I also might be bringing...
