Where did you get that suspension belt? I think I may need something like that. Lots of pressure at the very top of my head. Other than that, the LCD-XC destroys my LCD-2 in sound quality.
I made them myself out of some canvas belts. They were new and not used. I just prefer leather belts so it was pretty much useless to me. I figured I'd try modding it and it worked really well.
It takes slight modification to get it on such as removing the leather padding and cups from the headband. Aside from that it can be done in 5 mins and is completely reversible with no signs of ever being done.
I'd be more than happy to send ya one for $5 to cover shipping but if you're broke like me I'll send ya one anyway. I only have a few more left tho. The only color I have is the OD Green below but I can get tons of other colors from Amazon. Id like to try black or khaki. For those I'd have to ask for $10-15 and I'll make ya a couple. That'll cover shipping and the belt.
I do add rubber washers to help keep the belt from moving but those were like 10 cents a piece from Lowes. It adds a bit more style and some usefulness. It's optional but does help keep it pulled snug up against the headband.
Not doing them for profit. Just extending it on to those who could use it. The soft canvas belt is much better than the leather tho. I could probably so an actual belt easily but the canvas is soft and doesn't tug on hair like leather can. I have found that after a few hours the top of my head no longer hurts but now I feel it in my neck which is better I suppose since the weight us really slowing. That said it's very minor compared to the pain I was getting in the past of just using a leather pad or a cushioned pad. Hopefully that makes sense.
In short it sits more comfortably on my head now the even weight distribution is very nice but it can still be a pain but its unrelated to the suspension, just the weight having its toll.
Just PM me if interested. If not feel free to try it yourself. I'll send ya measurements. I use a soldering iron to burn holes thru the belt so it stays stronger and I tuck in so it looks nicer but is still adjustable. I like keeping the height at the absolute lowest since I'm already on the last 2 pegs anyways. Could call it a low rider suspension.
Ugh I've written a novel, I'll shut up now. PM me or Quote me for any questions or interest in getting one.
PS: The belt does stay on place. It is rigid enough to stay upright without folding in on itself but if you shake it it'll cave. I like that because it keep the material soft and cushy without being hard. My first trial run was with an actual seat belt. It worked much better than stock but the rigidness if it could add up to head pain because it had no give when and where you needed it.
