Sweet Spot Quote: Sound quality (Not dark presentation) Isolation Portability(which also means easy to drive....I don't want to deal with an amp just yet...maybe in a few months) Try the Senn HD 280's 1. Sound is fairly analytical with a little extra bass (Must break-in for...

Quote: how would the ms-1s fair with jazz (ella fitzgerald) and trance? I don't know how the MS-1s would sound, never tried them, but female Jazz and Lounge vocals sound excellent (you can hear every breath) on my RS-325's. Any instrument with strings will blow you away. I even like...

buster, I understand about portability. I don't find the 280's too bad. They stow around the neck well for talking to people or listening to other things. They fold up pretty compactly and without the amp everything is pretty portable (the amp introduces cable issues). However, the lower...

My commute = 1hr 45min on train, 30min on subway, 10min walk. Both ways. I use a Sharp MD-MS722 -> Home built CHA47 -> Senn HD280. Sound=Excellent. I can't hear the conductors announcements (or much else for that matter) on the train or subway if I have the volume up to a comfortably loud level...

scottder, The LED is green and I'm using Burr Brown OPA 2134's the gain is 5. I think you will find the best explanations on the differences between a CMOY and CHA47 in the archives here and at Headwize. Or just try this link: http://headwize2.powerpill.org/proje...heared_prj.htm By the...

Hello All, I need help in choosing a home Minidisc deck. I’m new to MD and want to use the format for a few different things. Like most, I want to use it as my main portable solution. In addition, I want to use it for live recording of everything from loud shows to the babbling brook...

jude Quote: I told my wife about these Cardas RCA Caps, and she just giggled. I'm actually quite lucky that she finds my audio enthusiast peculiarities somehow cute. I also told her today how I sold my extra pair of HD-600's. Her instant reply? "What're you going to replace them...

Thanks for the replies, blip, The case is a standard Serpac H-67, AC. I had not seen anyone use this case before I tried it. The H-67 and H-67, 9V seem to be used commonly. The only difference in this case and the H-67 9V is that it has the access panel (hence AC) on the bottom without the...

you've got urgent PM

Try checking out this site http://www.turntablelab.com/index1.html Look under CD's or LP's in the navagation bar at the top right. Namastay, Cheeba-Fi

Sorry to throw a wrench into your theory, but I prefer Krispy Kreams and I love my Grado 325's.

Hello All, Wanted to show the CHA47 I just finished. Nothing major, just the obligatory post with pics (in this and the following posts). Thanks to all who contribute so much knowledge to this forum (I'm not going to list them, because I would hate to miss someone and everyone knows already)...

Quote: I also bought a set of Beyer DT990 Pro's about 10 years ago and the foam on the inside (right over the drivers) has disintegrated as well. I don't see that this foam is replaceable. Watchdog, I had a similar problem with a pair of Sennheiser HD 560's. I replaced the thin...

disturbed, What do you consider reasonable for international shipping from the US? Namastay, Cheeba-Fi

Quote: Cheeba-Fi has a pot question? Well, someone finally put one and one together and found the humor in my thread subject line. Thanks Jeff!

Thanks for the reply Dreamslacker. Did you wire up the crossfeed on your META boards? If so, what type of bypass switch did you use? Thanks again. Namastay, Cheeba-Fi

I found this thread on Headwize late yesterday. http://headwize.powerpill.org/ubb/sh...0&srch=hansen; I was wondering if a 3P2T switch is correct. I found these switches in the Mouser catalog #506-MTA306D & #506-MTA306E will these work for the crossfeed? I guess additional question is, do I need...

Hello All, I have a couple of questions. I am currently building a CHA47 based on the directions in "Apheared's Project Notebook" on Headwize. I would like to add the crossfeed available on the Hansen board, but I am unsure on how to integrate this with the basic CHA47 setup because of the...

kerelybonto, What about trying the addition of the Sennheiser head pad suggested by TimD in the Collected Grado Mods page on Headwize (http://headwize.powerpill.org/projec...=grado_prj.htm). The solution is similar to what millerdog is suggesting just a little more refined and at $8.60...

ppl, What type of image editing programs do you have? As much as you have helped everyone, I'm sure that we can help you out with getting your pics on line. The first questions I would ask are, what resolution are the images at? and what file format are they saved in? Anyway, give us some...

M Rael, You've got PM mail JMT, Ditto skippy, I probably will do that to get a sense of the original flat pads (and so I can further enjoy my 325’s). Just offering (possibly) an alternative for those who might be inept with sharp implements. Namastay, Cheeba-Fi
