Yeah, it's definitely a lot more comfortable this way, glad you found the same to be true. Incidentally, how do you like that cable? I was looking at that brand on AliExpress, maybe even that exact cable, but I haven't had any experience with them.

I keep seeing recc. to use an NX7 style connector cable, but for my anatomy personally, the FiiO included cable does not reach to the front of my ear, and rather than wrapping around the front of my ear cartilage, forces me to bend the cable slightly and tilt the earphone down so that it can...

Hey y’all, I haven’t posted on Head-Fi in years, mostly because, for a quite a while, I was satisfied with my desktop setup (DT-990 Pro (typically eq’d to a Harman-esque target) and modded T50-RP sourced from an older but capable Matrix DAC/AMP with rolled op-amps), at least enough that I...

I do not care about Bill any more. I haven't heard my Grados since March. It's August. I will harrass him day and night if that's what it takes. Not saying I will, but honestly, screw Bill. There's no excuse for stealing my headphones. Because of that whole incident, I don't even use this site...

Yeah, pretty sure my SR-80i is gone along with my 80 bucks. This whole thing has been just crazy...man, I just want to listen to my Grados!

Still no cans. It's been four months. Not cool. I haven't heard from Bill in 16 days now. This is just crazy.

Just modded mine. Mind = blown. This is ridiculous and amazing, and I will be back in here with a better description, but I need to get back to jamming Zeppelin IV.

Quote: I believe that's his work number. I already tried calling to no avail earlier today.

Oh wow, I forgot about my pads (HD414) and laser cut screens, that brings the total I'm out up to 205 dollars. Believe it or not, this is the first time I've ever been ripped off for anything like this and it's over 200 bucks, right to bilavideo's pockets. Major bummer for real. Being new to...

The Ares look pretty cool, nice and flashy! I'm all about it. The Hephaes looks the best to me overall though.

Yeah man, sorry, just been busy. I'll respond to it now.   1. Saintkeat - Zebrawood modified cups - 17/04/2011 - $50 sent 2. Ubitwarr- Has my SR-225i's and is adding Aluminum Cups and Wood inners. Also adding a silver cable - 4/24/11 3. sml1226 - Original: Inners and Replacements for...

Bill has my SR-80s and 85 of my hard earned dollars. I've been waiting since March. Not cool. Since that number is gone, I'm going to be scouting for it myself. I don't even care about being "polite" at this point because that's all I have been until the last couple of responded-to messages I...

I'm having some serious problems with bilavideo.   On 6/10 I sent him a PM that will let you in on what I've been going through:   Quote:   I got a reply the next day (6/11) from bila, blaming school for taking up all his time and saying that he would make them that very day and...

I have one, one that i already knew of. He works pro bono on bicyclist accidents, especially with vehicles. He's an awesome dude, I have good insurance and I'm confident we'll find the person who ran me down. Im just glad I'm not more seriously injured. I mean, a broken tibia, a couple cracked...

I'm at the point where after I get a bunch of medical bills (got hit by a car on my bike last week, sucked!) taken care of, I just want to build a nice and unique M³ and get a vinyl setup established as well. After that, I'm taking a long break from buying audio stuff.   I'll mod my Grados...

Ok, sorry guys, I've been busy lately, didn't notice this even had posts in it. The RockBox Wiki has EVERYTHING you could need to learn how to build your own Rockbox distro with the above patch. Be prepared to do work if you've never compiled anything before. I just don't have the time to write...

Crossing my fingers hard on this, if I won I would probably run around my house pumping my fists and yelling at the top of my lungs.

*takes a bow* In reality, I'm a military contractor/field engineer, which is hard work and very long hours. On the side, I also I write freelance code, repair/design and build/troubleshoot computers, make organic body jewelry and buy things on craigslist and at thrift shops to resell as well as...

My vintage setup is a Harmon Kardon PM 665 feeding a pair of Design Acoustics PS-10s. I just picked these guys up and they are wonderful, I really dig them. They've got a great tweeter and midrange driver in the front, with a 10" downfiring woofer. The whole thing is very small, about a 12"...

Well, my financial situation has been pretty interesting throughout my whole life.   I actually went on a time-traveling adventure in a highly modified Delorean DMC-12 to the year 2015 where I acquired a copy of a sports almanac containing the outcomes of 50 years worth of sporting events...

My problem with pine would be if you dropped your headphones are even bumped them against something, you'd probably be left with a big ol' dent in your shell. Pine is just too soft. If it's not seasoned right, you might also deal with cracking, shrinking, splitting, etc.   However, that...

Bill, those new pictures are making me itch to get my cans back! I really can't wait to see my shells, your work is looking awesome. Also, I have made a good amount of organic body jewelry with a lathe before so I might be able to help with any questions, etc. My lathe was stolen from my garage...

Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor. Those are incredible. Absolutely stunning work.
