Very sorry for the late reply, life has been busy. The only way to remove the driver is to take apart the whole headphone. There is another option. If you wish to try and remove the hairs with disassembly, you can remove the fabric driver cover, and use plastic tweezers to remove hairs. DO NOT...

That actually sounds like a pretty good plan. Maybe I'll buy the Sys and a Grace SDAC.

I just looked it up. It actually looks like pretty viable option! Sites seem to sell it for ~$210-$230 so it's close to my max budget. It seems highly requested on massdrop as well, so maybe I'll see if it goes for a little cheaper on their too.

Ok, thanks for that info! Do you have any recommendations for a DAC and a splitter box maybe? It would be nice if I could have two outputs, with one being balanced. But maybe I'll just have to settle for less with my budget.

Hi all! I'm looking for a DAC with multiple outputs for my multiple amps. Since I'm running it to amps, I don't need high output power. I plan on using it on a dark voice, my stereo receiver, and for a balanced amp I will buy in the future. Four outputs would be nice, but 3 is the minimum. I...

@legopart Hi! I just got something else too. Some Stax SR-40s! Along with a SRD-4 Energizer! Now my question is, how do I hook up the Unipolars to the SRD-4? I'm so excited! I took picture of both for reference.

Wow thank you for the information! I guess I thought electric didn't need an external transformer (my K340s have the transformer inside). Now everything makes sense. I actually just scored some Realistic Electrostatics for $100. They are actually Stax SR-5s. So when those arrive I'd love your...

Hi, I just got a pair of Unipolar 2000s off ebay, but I don't have an amp for them. I was wondering if I can use the HER 2000 energizer in the US at 120v? I was also wondering if I could get an old stax energizer and it would work with these (after getting a new plug of course). I know how...

Thanks!

So I've been wanting to build electrostatic headphones, but before I can even experiment I need an amp. I've been trying to find the schematics, Gerber files, BOM, and a board layout for the KGSSHV Carbon. But I've only managed to find a Google drive for gerber files. Most of the links I run...

Thanks! I plan on getting even more. I'd love to get DFs, a Sextett, and some massdrop K7xxs. I'm also looking into building a set of electrostatics too!

Thank you! I finished cleaning my left driver and thought "hey, I don't think there's a guide. Why not take pics of the right side?" Lol. I'm not sure, but I think all the 5xy designs should come apart nearly the same. If anyone does this on different revisions, I would list any differences in...

Hi all, many people, including myself, have rattling HD 598s during bass notes. Since these headphones are popular with many people who may not take stuff apart, or know how to take apart headphones, I figured I'd make a short guide! If you'd rather use my imgur album to follow, here is link...

Hi all! Thanks to this site, I've become a vintage headphone collector. I currently own 2 AKG k140s, a broken (anyone got a spare 600ohm drive lol) set of K141s, K240 Monitors (600ohm), K270s, Realistic pro 30 orthodynamic headphones, Sony DR-S5s, and some really cool vintage cans I converted...
