Hey guys, I've been inactive for a long time. Had to start adulting and other hobbies took priority over my audiophilia. The last set of high quality headphones I bought was a set of Fostex TH-X00 PH back in 2016 when they were initially released but I never opened them as i moved shortly after...

Found the Service Manual online. Useful resource. Where was this 5 years ago...   Either way, here you go! https://panasonic.encompass.com/shop/model_research_docs/?file=/DEN/sm/AHD5000.pdf   I've saved a copy if it ever goes offline.

Lossless music library is 200GB Counting TV shows, movies, and video games. I have over 6TB of media. Yikes

Hey fellas. Bad news, I had a family emergency (uncle passed away) and had to travel out of the US last Saturday. I am heading back tomorrow but as you can expect have had very little time with the headphones and no time to do a head to head comparison. I will try to get a review written down...

Ok, so first impressions: A new box is definitely needed. Beat up as hell. Headphones are beautiful. Love the look and attention to detail on the design. They smell like smoke though, and I really wish that the pads and headband was removable as it makes me cringe a little every time I wear...

Just got the headphones! Wont be able to listen to them until later tonight though

Guys, lets keep the discussion on the appropriate thread please.

Just an update, Haven't received these yet. Hopefully Mshenay can get them out to me soon or I won't be able to review them as I'm planning an overseas trip in the next few weeks.

Can't make it guys. Girlfriends family is having lunch and according to my girlfriend, I'm going to be there. =(

@cb3723 : Can you keep your images small or in a spoiler box? really sucks whenever I look at the thread on a phone...   Here's a thread with some reviews about the didos http://www.head-fi.org/t/697985/perfect-sound-dido-d901-mini-tour-reviews-discussion-impressions-musings-etc

Here's the list of my stuff. Denon D2K Beyerdynamics DT770 Premium Hifiman HE-400 Perfect Sound Dido d901 (Hopefully) Schiit Magni & Modi

Well, crap. I'll most likely have to make a cable for it then. Hopefully I have a 3.5mm connector small enough to fit the cups. Is the entry recessed in any way?

Well, I've just learned about this meeting. Thanks for contacting me Mike.   Will definitely come by for a couple of hours at least. I can bring anything and everything listed on my profile.   Cheers, PXSS

Subbed, I just hope this thread stays a little more on track than the last one.   Should be receiving the Perfect Sound Didos d901 over the weekend to perform a review. They're supposed to be really bass heavy.

Like!

I guess! Got finals this week and I haven't received any notice from mshenay, so I'm not sure when these are coming and if I'll have the time to carry out a proper review/comparison

no worries, we're all just excited for our turn =D

Where are these right now? Any more impressions coming up soon?

They cost me 60 plus shipping. I'll sell you mine, I had bought them for comparison purposes. I currently have Lawton Audio Angle Pads on my D2K which provide a slight decrease in sibilance in my opinion plus they are more comfortable on my head due to the increased clamp force and plushier...

Contact Luigi. I'm sure it won't be cheap but it's your best bet

thats what girlfriends are for!

Ok fellas, please take the D3 conversation to pm. Way off topic

The drilling isn't nearly as bad as the soldering, the pins are tiny and VERY close to each other. It took me a couple of tries to get them not to short. A multimeter will be very handy if you decide to go the Lemo route. Cheers

How about amping? Do you have any amps avail to do another comparison? I am very interested in knowing how well these perform with amping. Do you still have the DT770 80ohms? How do they compare? I know there's a huge price gap but I would still like to know how the beyers compare since it's...

Mark Lawton Modded D2000 and yes, I had to drill through them, original hole diameter is roughly 5.5mm so there is no chance you will fit anything in there without drilling. I have access to a drill press and a vise, so it was done in a very precise manner. The only other modder that I've seen...
