I've heard that Rhydon has decided to stop making Magnum drivers.How sad . Anyone of you guys here have further info about this ? 

Quote:   To me, the Millett Starving Student sound a little too speedy, not as natural,open,smooth and sweet as the Szekeres.Maybe because of my Millett is different to the original ( I used 12AU7 instead of 6GM9 and the output caps are not exotic ), but I think the main reason is the...

Quote:   You were right about the O2.Analytical and a bit boring when paired with Mags   I think the better options for driving the Magnums are Class A or Tubey amp.I've built a Szekeres amp, and even when the parts are not exotic, they sound very good with the Mags : Much better...

Thanks for rapid response Stratocaster.   Sorry for my mistake, my V4s are grey ring with dark mesh, not white mesh. :p   Btw, when you applied the Ultimate mod on V4s, how deep is your distancer ? Have you lined your pads ? I feel that my modded V4s are lack of bass impact and deep bass...

Hmmm...Anyone of you guys here feel that the first batch of V4s ( white mesh ) are somehow not detailed as expected ? I've just plugged it into my macbook and found that they're not detailed as my previous RS1i ( from my memory ).How do V4s compare to V3.5s in term of detail ?

I think if you can manage to touch a CNC machine and know how to handle it right, the cost even lower.Maybe you could get a $700 - 1000 sound and $500 look with only $200 Quote:    

I think that they were the darker ones.I'll post a pic later, I don't have any digital camera right now.   The reason why i'm asking this question is, when I put out the drivers to do some measurement, I accidentally dropped one into a tinbox, from above 8cm or so.I've heard some stories...

Any of you guys have measured the impedance of the V4 drivers ? My V4s were somewhat mismatched, one is 32.2 ohms and the other is 31.9 ?

Arrived 2 weeks ago and my V4s drivers are still in a tinbox :(   Anyone here have a recommended dimensions for the cups ? I'm going to build a wood cups but don't know which size to follow.Should I build RS1s clone cups or follow another configuration ?

Quote: How much volume you have to increase with Ultimate magnum to match the original magnum ? ( If you can please show the position of the volume knob on your LD I+ )   I afraid that the increase of the volume needed with the Ultimate magnum will somehow break their sound, like...

Stratocasther, do you have to crank the volume up with the Ultimate Magnum than the original Magnum ?       I think this problem was caused both by driver design and amplifier.The amplifier may have enough voltage swing, but not enough current. Quote:      

I've ordered V4 drivers 2 weeks ago.   Thanks Rhydon, he ship them out very fast, my sister in Minneapolis received them after 1 day.But they take a long way to get to my home :D   I'm waiting for my wood cups.Going the hybrid way          

Nice cans, Twinster   Could you please compare them to the MS Ultis or may be stock MS Pros ?

Stratocaster, have you compared the V4 Hybrid setup ( Rhydon's Alu Airchambers + Woodie cups ) with the full woodies setup ?    

My MS-Pros     After one month, they sound really AWESOME !!! Now i'm looking for a decent source & amp :p

Quote:   Open the back of the headphones, you'll see 2 conductors.Use your multimeter to check the impedance between these points.If it ~ 32ohms, the driver is good, and the cable must be replaced.If it's still 70ohms, there is problem with the driver    

I've just listened to MS Pro yesterday, these cans are awesome.I think MS Ultimate will be more than "awesome", so i'm planning to get one, but a 2nd MS Pro is so hard to find these days, and a new one will punch a big hole on my wallet :(.Do you guys know anyone want to sell their MS Pro :D ?
