Hi all, I have had my HE-400's for a couple of weeks now. Find myself listening to them more then any of my other cans. I am really enjoying the bass on these, and it is very well balanced. Only thing I did not care for was the cable, so I swapped it for a Norne Audio litz cable...huge...

Hello All, Unlike a lot of guys, I'm not running a system from a computer and can't use one of the software based EQ programs. Mostly I'm running vinyl directly to my Woo WA6-SE. What are my options for a good quality EQ device to add to the chain that won't degrade the sound? Kevin

Well the current price seemed like it was time to jump. I have a pair of HE-400's incoming for use with my Woo WA6-SE. Should be fun!

+1. I have two, paid $40 each for them!

Hey all: Built a pair of "Grado" Magnium (V4) with wood chambers from Headphone Lounge and silver cable from Chris-Himself. After listening for several hours I have to say I'm very impressed! I own a few good headphones and this compares in the same level for a lot less money.

Hello,   Purchased a pair of V4 Magnum's.  Please take a look at the picture:     I'm guessing that the terminal on the right (the one with the small dot) is for positive?  Can somebody tell me if this is correct before I solder them?  Thanks!   Kevin

As others have stated you can adjust the clamping force by adjusting the headband. Soak the ear pads in a little water and fabric softener and they become much more comfortable. As also stated, you either like Grado's or you don't...I would never be without a pair....can't listen to the Grateful...

Hey All: Got a couple of pairs of L-Cush inbound for my HF-2 and a magnum mod. Want to try the fabric softener mod to make them more comfortable. What's the deal with this? Do I just soak them in a bowl with warm water and some fabric softener? How long? I'm guessing when they come out they get...

Quote: Got it, thanks!

Hi All:   Got the parts coming in over the next week or two to start my first mod.  Going with the Vibro wood cups, Magnum drivers, silver cable from Chris (Himself) and probably a Headphone Lounge leather headband.  So two questions for all who have done this, should I be looking at any...

Sounds like a great trip! I used to live in Rotterdam...I do miss the country....

Hey all: Reading about all the great Magnum projects tempts me to build a pair. Would the sound be different enough from my HF-2 to be worth it?

Hey all: Never tried a DIY project, but would like to maybe try this. Just a few starter question for you experienced folks. So it looks like I could order a set of drivers, get a headband, woodies and cable from Headphone Lounge...how about the rest? What would I use for the side holders and...

Other then the very nice (and very expensive) Berkeley Alpha DAC, is there any other current DAC with HDCD decoding?  TIA.

Very cool looking stand! What dis you make it out of? I also like the B/W....nice effect.

I've been very happy with the Silver Resolution cables from Signal Cable. Frank is a great guy to work with and his cables sound fantastic (IMHO), much better the the Zu OxiFuel I own.

Might also try Mapleshade, lots of variety and all of their CD's are recorded really well

Hey all, a quick question for this group. I'm thinking it's time to get a set a planar headphones for myself. I've been looking at the LCD-2( rev 2) and the HE-500. I know both of these headphones are somewhat amp dependent, but have seen many people state that both can be driven with a WA6-SE...

Quote:   Its very, very sturdy!  I like it a lot.  It went togeter pretty easy, but you do need two people to do it.  And note that it's very heavy.  Basically you have 4 threaded poles, you put the footers on the end of each pole, slide a shelf down (which steadies the whole thing) and...

Was just talking to Keph today and he is going to make one for me.  Also ended up getting a few NOS tubes from him (as if I needed any more)...looking forward to trying it out.

  So for you guys that go for an aftermarket upgrade of caps, who do you get to do the work?  Is it something you do yourselves?  I would be very interested in getting some Mundorf Silver (or gold silver) caps in my WA6SE...but I really don't think I'm up to installing them myself!

  It's actually a PK100 tmw110!  I had the exact same problem, took them forever to send an email back about purchasing one.  Keep at it and you will get one, I have been very happy with it.  Don't have anything to compare it with as I was using a laptop before, but it does exactly what I...

Here is my modest system:
