Anyone have a copy of the usb32 firmware download?   Links http://www.audio-gd.com/USB32firmware.rar and http://www.audio-gd.com/USB32firmware2014.rar do not work...404   Never mind, emailed kingwa and he provided the latest firmware files.

  Hah, the HE-6 are in storage for now. Planning to pick them up some time this month. We'll have to do a meet so you finally get to hear them.  

  Great! I feel the C5 improves the ER4 on many levels (bass being one). I have mine set to medium and its just right.

    A recent lifestyle change caused me to acquire a portable setup.   Clip Zip + C5 + ER4PT (with ER4S Conversion Cable)   Might consider a DX50 and cable upgrade down the road.

Quote:   I was one of the few who heard the hissing. I noticed it on my HE-500s and DT770 (250ohm) with or without music playing. Oddly, I can't detect it with my HE-6s.

Grats on the purchase MrTie84. Be sure to try the velour pads.

Using the mini-x/he-6 for a month and really loving the combo.     I don't see a reason to upgrade unless I move the mini to my speaker setup.   Great performance for the price.

May have a point, I don't think changing the impedances has an effect on the sensitivity of the headphones which causes the noise.     Both, music playing and music not playing. The hiss only gets higher when you get closer to 2 o clock. Anything below and it's a steady hiss.    ...

Quote:   Thanks for the info and mini impression.   I'm going to work on building a new speaker tap impedance cable. I'll report how it goes.

Quote:   Did you build the adapter? What ohms was it? Also, glad I wasn't the only one who heard the hiss. =)

Although I love the sound of the a-100 and he-500, I can't get over the hiss produced by the combo. I tested the HE-500s on my NFB-10.2 and it was dead silent so I assume the headphones are just too sensitive for it. I've asked others who own the HE-500/a-100 combo and they did not hear it or...

CD on the way to my partner. Hopefully he gets it before the holiday. 18th-24th expected delivery 

Quote:   Were the pads a nightmare to put on? I went with the lawton audio pads for my HE-500s and like them very much. They slip right on the ring. I plan to put them on the HE-6 but I'm still curious about the Audeze vegans. Hideous as the vegans look on the HE-6, I bet they are very...

Quote:   Looks more like the NFB 5.2, nice cans mrAdrian!

Quote:   Hey by chance, can you take a picture of them? I would greatly appreciate it! 

Quote:   Not that hard, solder the positive to the internal pin inside the connector, ground get's soldered to the body right under the "hump". Use hotglue to make sure they dont wiggle.   Heat shrink..I used 3:1 ratio 3/8".   Good luck if you attempt! 

Quote:   I've done two cables with those connectors and they were a challenge to work with.       I finally got the replacement a-100 in and enjoying the setup!   (from right to left) foobar box (mini-tx pc) -> nfb10.2 (dac fixed line level output) -> a-100 -> HE-6/HE-500  ...

If you're looking for an amp to ONLY power your soon to be HE-500s, I would take a look at this little gem.   http://shop.emotiva.com/collections/amplifiers/products/a100   currently $179 which is a steal   It even has enough juice to power the HE-6   checkout preproman's review...

HE-6 cable I've built using nucleotide copper wire with a viablue splitter.    

Quote:   I too would like to see that review, I believe the other amp was the nfb-10se. It's somewhere hidden in that he-6 thread      Just a head ups on emotiva's service..THEY ROCK!   I received my a-100 on Tuesday and sadly it had some dents and a scratchy volume knob. Called...

Quote:   Nice Cable, simple and straight to the point!   Did you have to solder or was it screw on? I didn't realize the plugs I purchased were too big for the gauge of wire I used so I had to solder them on.   I wasn't looking to do any soldering for this project but things...
