[Audeze]

The cipher is 50 from Audeze?

The price difference between standard and lightning versions of Audeze headphones is $50.

The connectors.

I like these because the barrel is screw on, others just slip over and you have to glue. Seller has other styles also. The pins on these fit the isine but the groove is too narrow and shallow. You have to widen and deepen the grove just a bit. I just used a exacto knife tip to scratch it a few time and it did the job.

The cable.

Copper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1meter-4cor...738136?hash=item465c72ccd8:g:mrUAAOSwgv5ZVJS7
The silver is softer to the touch and more flexible than the copper. Silver leans towards brighter and copper towards warmer. I like both for different amps.

Thanks a lot. This could save us a lot of money when you see that after market branded cables are sold between 100 $ to 1000 $

Looks interesting. We contemplated doing something like this in the initial design. Is the headband attached to the logo by Magnets or is it glued ?

 

[sunneebear]

Yeah just a $2 mod.

Poop out the drivers.

cut out the ball pivot.

stick to isine with double sided tape or hot glue.

You do have to remove the "A" from the isine first. It is held on with double sided tape.

Cool mod, though sad to see the 'A' go

Thanks. I'm somewhat of a old school Koss modder so I knew right away where to look. I did try searching for other headbands but I can't find one of such simplicity. I do feel guilty that they are so cheap on a expensive headphone but they work so well.

I will try this mod, they are very cheap, but imported to Scotland, another£40!!!. I do think this will really make it easier to fit, use, so I will let you know how I get on. When you say....cut out the ball pivot, and cut out the..A.., do you mean literally, a Stanley knife job?.

The cheap headphones are very easy to open up. Remove the foam cushions, open up, remove drivers. After that you can use a knife to cut out the ball pivot. I used a small wire cutter to cut it out. The plastic is very soft, you can even use scissors. After cutting a little sanding may be needed to smooth over the cutting.

The "A" logo on the isine has double sided tape underneath. I used the tip of a small hobby knife and gentle push in the edge while slowly lifting. A good place to put the knife tip would be the top of the "A". There is a notch on the back that I think is for alignment. Save the Audeze logo to reverse the mod or glue to the outside of the headband.
