can anyone post the default 3 pin xlr used with the headphone
How is the sound with the XL Hybrids compared to stock velour?So, mass drop is doing a 177x Go model. Z reviewed it. He hates the 1770, I guess, but tried all kids of pads on the 177x and concluded the brainwavz XL hybrid are the way to go. So, I have an XL pair lying around. I did 4-5 sets of A/B with the regular rounds, and the XL sounds better. More soundstage opens it up I guess? Better separation, fuller vocals--it just sounds better, so I put them full time.
What’s better then the XL Hybrids? In what way?So, I determined that the best pads for these were actually the Dekoni ones. I never cared for the 1770 Velour pads. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019QXEZHK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They fit better. Quality of pads seemed a little better as wellWhat’s better then the XL Hybrids? In what way?
Alright, so nothing changed regarding sound?They fit better. Quality of pads seemed a little better as well
Dekoni sheepskin. They fit like oem, and i can wear them for hoursDoes anyone know which model of pad retains bass but is comfortable.
My 177x stock pads are a bit rigid.
The baffle design is almost identical (with the DT1990 having that black textile in front of the driver), so yea you could mod a 1770 into a 1990 with not that much work, just have to mod the cups and you should have something roughly similar to it. The DT1990 has 12 not so large holes in the middle of the cup, the venting on the outside is mostly for looks.is ti possible to mod the 1770 into a 1990? The drivers are exactly the same (beyerdynamic part nr.) as well as the amiron.
so I guess the only difference would be the outer cups which are obviously open...? does someone have detailed pics of the 1990 vs 1770 from the inside?
The 17xx are balanced. Haven't heard them though
Balanced cables don't change the sound other than rejecting some electrical noise. Custom Cans makes great cables at fair prices, but they will tell you that cables don't change the sound unless something is very wrong. If you don't like the sound, try different pads.Has anyone purchased the balanced version from Custom Cans?
I'd prefer to keep the stock sound but want a balanced option - also anyone noticed substantial improvement running these in balanced Vs SE?
