this meant touching it with the soldering iron, just melt it and fixed it up again..?

Thank you! When you say reinforced, did you re-solder all the joints/welds?

Hi, relatively new owner to a crack... been liking it so far with my HD800S... and gaming with it is great too... maybe just that lately it's been giving me cracks/static at random moments, and I may need to check the solder joints with chopsticks for any incorrect joints... but looking forward...

hi, new owner (or 2nd owner...) of a 5x5, hope to learn from you guys... so far I'm loving it... specially when I'm unwinding after work...

are they good? where did u buy them? thanks

oh got it, what tubes do you use?

Whats convince?

Alright.. thanks ill check the things you said out.. oh so the xlr connection is purely for aesthetic purposes..

is that balanced output for the crack? Is that possible?

Oh ok, the reason I didn't get it was that bottlehead support on fb chat told me just to get the basic one.. is the speedball really a big difference? which is the power tube? the big one in the middle?

yup without

Just the ones that came with the stock equipment. It says here on the instruction manual, 6080 vacuum tube, and a 12AU7 vacuum tube. are there any recommended tubes to upgrade? preferably something with soundstage as that's what I noticed that disappeared when I used the crack.. but any nice...

Not changing tubes?

hey, fairly new to OTL tube amps and assembled a crack a few months ago. Actually the experience with the HD800S I have is kind of underwhelming. Sounded pretty normal to me, despite all the hype the crack gets with senns cans. Was just wondering maybe I should change the stock tubes? I have no...

how's the HD800S with the bottlehead crack? I actually got myself a crack and a Aune x8 magic dac with burson vivid op amps.. I must say the soundstage of the HD800S disappeared when I connected it to the crack.. the vocals are a lot more emphasized though..

Tried searching for a thread for HD800S in the full-sized headphone sub-forum came up empty. How come there's no thread for this headphone? It's one of the good headphones..

was hoping to go tube

Just to know more.. I might get the bottlehead crack, would you recommend I get the speedball upgrade..? When you say tube choices and capacitor upgrades, what tubes do you use and what capacitors did you have to change? Thanks.

Can't try ADUHF's graphicEQ settings, after peace was installed it seemed to have changed the config.txt file.. I gave all the HD800S presets from the autoeq link HifiHawaii sent, tbh after all of it I liked the non-eq'd version of the HD800S lol.. though for the crinacle 711 preset the treble...

Thanks guys. Tried the peace plugin, when I import the parametricEQ should the results be instantaneous or should I click on something like apply first before the presets get applied? edit: got it, it's instantaneous and there's an on/off toggle at the upper right..

Where is the HD800S by Crinacle, Ears 7-11? I read the github page of autoeq and the only options for HD800S were the original HD800S and the HD800S with dekoni sheepskin presets..

Ok can you post the config.txt form again too because that would be better..

Yes this is what I do too.. change the values of the config.txt file..

How do i use this in equalizer apo?

Hi guys, just thought if anyone knows how to EQ a headphone, mine specifically the HD800S. I use EqualizerAPO and I used autoeq's presets for the HD800S and found them a little weird sounding so I wanted to try Oratory1990's settings for EQ, but when I searched for his presets it only led me to...
