What are you guys using for amps? I have an RME Babyface. There a whole lot of volume/headroom in it, but it isn't anywhere near 600Ω impedance. It works great with the 250Ω DT-1990, but that's, ya know, about half.

Love to know how the modification turns out. I live the sound of the headphones, but hate the mechanical noise. I wondered if adding a headband pad would help. keep us posted oops. and forgot... They Beyerdynamic dt770 headband pad does not fit. Won't wrap around all the way and snap...

I might give those (Fisual S-Flex) a try. If I do, I'll pass on any good news.   r

Hey! I have the FSP, and for a lot of reasons I really like them. However, are you using the stock cables that came with them? If not, do you have a recommendation? I'm having a lot of trouble with acoustic noise when the cables hit anything (like a shirt). Any suggestions would be...

FSP overall Beautiful bass extension. very tight. Great isolation comfortable Can't speak for the purported mid-range hump, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. (I monitor on Genelec, Dynaudio and PMC. Occasionally on ATC. All of these but the ATC have their idiosyncrasies) Extremely...

THANK YOU!! I will try it. (neither of mine have a remote button, but I don't use them for the phone anyway)   Best Wishes,   r

I just sent this letter to Focal. I have had a pair of focal pro headphones now for a few months. First, I have to say, that the sound coming out of the speakers is excellent. No complaints. The cups fit and are comfortable. Here's the bad part. I can not comfortably recommend these to...

That's cool. The logic of the etymology says yes anyway. (there's nothing in the word indicating electrocoustics) So.... nothing about cables?   r

i wasn't sure I was using the right terminology. There's no electrical signal interference in my cables, only mechanical transduction. but I was using the term 'microphonic'. The post above (below?) indicated this is probably wrong and that electrical signal was a requirement where the term...

oh well. I'll figure something out. parbly delete it

so is a Shabbat microphone not actually a microphone, since it doesn't use electricity in any way?

how about 'microphonics' since that seems to be in dispute?
