    Dear God, what have I wrought?

    What's wrong with foam? Just want to let you know that you are missing out. A properly designed Tumult in a sealed box, with 2 of these passive radiators will sound so much better and much much louder than your current set up, with NO distortion. How are low frequency produced? By pushing crap...

    DIY HD590 cable upgrade?

    You know, I'm thinking...Why bother with the tiny little 2.5mm plug? Why couldn't we have both end of the cable 6.3mm plug and use a high-quality adapter. That way, the cable is a lot more versatile, not to mention much easier to make too. What do you think

    DIY HD590 cable upgrade?

    OK, after 4 hours of labouring, my fruit of labor is done. It looked great . However, I didn't do a good job on the 2.5mm plug. FYI, the Nectec 2.5mm plug DOES fit my HD495. I would imagine it should fit just fine on the HD595 (which should be on my door in 1-2 days). The fit was VERY tight on...

    DIY HD590 cable upgrade?

    *UPDATE* Cables and connectors from Markertek have arrived! Damn the Canare cable is fat. I don't know if I could shove both cables down the poor 2.5mm connector's throat. I'll see. Order from Partsexpress.com is taking its time. Until they arrive, I could only sit and stare at the Canare...

    Quote: Originally posted by Orpheus i couldn't even fit one into a mini plug, much less this ultra thin 2.5mm plug.dean Thanks for the reply. I have an idea though. Since the connector is so small, why bother? Why can't we use a 6.3mm connector, and use an adapter so it's like this...

    DIY HD590 cable upgrade?

    After reading the thread about the cable upgrade for the HD600, I wonder if I could do the same for HD590. I know Equinox and such have great cable, but spending $100 on 10f cable is rediculous in my opinion. I was thinking of getting the Vision 1 instead ($45/10f). However, there must be...
