^ I can pack you some of the stuff I use. Shouldn't cost too much and if it doesn't I won't charge you anything. Just give me an address and I can probably send it out tomorrow.

If anyone in Australia needs some distancers, shoot me a PM. This drill press is going to make things much easier...

 

[iHelp]

Do I need to buy a drill press?

Seems so...

New MS1000 owner here in the States. Just got it put together tonight and have been fiddling with the felt. This mod definitely improves overall sound quality and range and comfort.

I just used some epoxy... was too impatient for the silicone to dry, lol. I guess the first go-round the epoxy got too spread out and separated and left a lot of gaps because it sounded thin and tinny... went back and filled in around the distancer with more epoxy and it helped a lot.

Thanks apatN for your services and nickchen for all the information. Had a lot of fun on this project. I feel like the MS1000 + uDAC is a nice lil' package for a "beginner" audiophile like myself.

It sounds fantastic.

Btw, the wife said I looked "dorky", I responded, "What's new?"

 

[nickchen]

Congrats, dorky

Haha, glad I could be of help.

They're a great beginner's headphone but now that I heard a lot more headphones there I am still in love with them. The only drawback is the lack of resolution that some higher end phones can give you.

 

[gknix]

yay. I'm on the same boat as a new Ms-1000 and thanks to the help of apatN and nickchen

Here's my rig:

That's the uDAC in the fore. As for the '1000, I left her natural... big ol' black tires with white lettering. In the future, who knows, maybe I'd like some woodies to replace all the black plastic.

Hi,I am a MS-PRO ultimate(MSU) user in Hong Kong and express my feeling of MSU. My source is CEC TL51X CDT and Corda stagedac

When I firstly hear MSU, I am suprised by the sound stage but disapointed by the sound because the sound seen is less wonderful than MS-PRO

However, today I use a tube amp as preamp and then connect to an amp (an amp that adjusted the sound as similar as ATH HA5000), then a wonderful results occur.

I find almost all the good sound in MS-PRO return to MSU with a bigger sound stage & deeper bass and now I can confirme that MSU is one of the best mod for MS-PRO.

Futhermore, MSU is a great HP mod and has many potentials but is more difficult to drive then MS-PRO. People must make a good combination to exhaust the power of MSU.

I doubt I'll adopt that shortcut

However, have fun with your Ulti!
