The photos are gone because I'm a dumbass and put them on imageshack. If I can find them in my archived files I can reupload them to something like imgur or whatever.

  I will look and see if I still have the original images archived somewhere and reupload them for you.

Quote:   Welcome to my world. This is why I stopped trying to get too detailed about the old Kx00/Kx01 headphones. So many variations to start with, then the pad differences.. ugh.

Quote:   I just owned a lot, nothing much special past that.   Photographic evidence for the newcomers:        

Was quite a fun meet. Sorry I missed the first half due to work.

Quote:   The "round" braid I do is leftmost over two wires, then back under one, then rightmost over two wires and back under one, repeat until done. I've not done flat braid in several years so I don't remember the process for it to compare.

Yay this thread is still alive...   Got some major life changes in the works, so anybody interested in some of my old AKG swag? I still have **** like the jacket, banner, lighted sign, hat, etc. Maybe could do something fun with it in some kinda contest or something? I dunno, I don't have...

Quote:   Feckin hell I should've held onto a few more pairs then. People are paying some crazy money these days it seems.

Quote:   Knowing Justin, he won't ship until he is 100% satisfied with the product. Dude is a perfectionist to the extreme; no way is he going to skimp on QC at this point.

Add the K270 Playback back to my list. I needed some proper closed phones for late night music listening, as well as isolation when I'm streaming horror games, and Whitney was kind enough to hook me up.

Quote: I think I did some rough measurements on that which showed minimal difference on the CSD, but it's been so long I can't be sure. I'll get it all measured eventually.

Quote: I was doing some experimentation with the filter board a while back, but don't really remember where I left off. I also removed the foam discs because they were starting to deteriorate, and after making some replacement ones from a virtually identical foam I don't notice a huge...

Quote: Hmm, does sound a little odd in description, but certainly worth trying! There's a few stores around ATL where the uncommon stuff stays on the shelves longer, so I'll poke around a bit, and worst case just have to remember it for next year.

Quote: There's a very good reason the K501 set me off on that downward spiral of AKG ownership.   But I've been holding steady for a while now with the K240 Sextett, K401, and modified K1000.

Quote: You can also reduce the headband tension so they don't clamp at all.

Quote: I've never been a huge fan of Sweetwater even though it's local, what was the xmas one?

Quote: Which can be suitably addressed by the suggestion already made of a Pelican case. They have a matrix of foam blocks that you remove the ones you don't want in order to make a custom shape for the headphones to fit into. Alternatively just get a flightcase, a piece of plain foam...

In the future, if you're gonna dig up an old thread, it might do you well to read and understand it first before making an acrimonious reply. Just a suggestion.   To sum it up for you, all of us, including the thread starter, knew the K400, K401, K500, K501, K601, and K701 pads are...

How many audiopixels are necessary for the amp to reach the high resolution threshold?

Quote: I do highly recommend it if the opportunity ever arises. It was pure fortune that I was able to go there with a plethora of other Head-Fiers for the release of Pliny the Younger, and also indulge in many other brews while I was there.  

And by difference you mean improvement, yes?   The K501 is what first made me fall in love with AKG, and anybody who's been around here any amount of time knows the rest.

Quote: Nicely done. I don't know if I actually had the Damnation, but I had many a brew at RRBC earlier this year (was there for Pliny the Younger) and man do they make some good stuff.  

I still own a K400, but I've had K401 drivers in it for a while. You got me wanting to swap the K400 drivers back in now.

Quote: And contrary to popular belief, he wasn't actually done on the 7th day and resting, but instead spent the whole time listening to the K1000s and forgot to actually finish his work.

Quote: No, those don't come out, at least not without cutting the plastic. Each individual disc is put into the baffle from behind, then the plastic is melted in spots to permanently fix it in place.
