So can you explain the difference if any and does the person sell their services?

I purchased these after Maxx134 modded them, I bought them because of the pride he took in his work. I like original and unusual.

Any recomendation for a closed back planar?

There aren't that many because planars' mids are more affected by closing the back than dynamics making them much harder to tune.

I can vouch, however, for the M1060C. They sound pretty decent if some of the rear foam is removed (I removed 2/3 of the foam disks). Despite common belief, they don't have to be modded open to sound decent, IMO. it should be noted that they aren't super isolating for a closed back, but they are closed.

You might PM Maxx134 and ask him if he does that as a service??
He's an awesome seller and those cans are getting very sweet!

Look what the mail lady delivered today, Modded by Maxx134, they are more beautiful in person.

The pads look shredded where they mount. Did they come that way or is that part of the modding process?

They were old pads and he left them on, I think they got messed up from taking them off and putting them on, they are very comfy and sound good they just look like a butter face

You might have some luck with a single lap of hockey tape where the pads are mounted to the headphone.
This will also increase the seal.

I just bought second hand HE400i (2020),
Right now i need replacement cable to get 2.5mm out for my BTR5.

I got two offer, a 8 Braid silver plated cable for $28 or get AudioQuest cable for $53.
i don't quite knew about custom cable, do the audioquest one worth the extra price?
Any question i should ask to the maker?

I've ordered some different pads from Amazon, Dekoni hybrid pads they look like they could fit. Hopefully they don't change the sound.

Get a used ZMF Ori. Fantastic headphone...I've heard other planars w/higher resolution, but none w/that quality of bass & soundstaging.

Linsoul has an interesting new planar for sale - the $399 Ovidius TX-901 'Combat Armor'. It looks pretty cool, though doesn't look like anyone has heard one yet.

Lol, that's a new market segment: Rugged audiophile headphones.

Some users have expressed interest in the Tecsun "Grassroots" model headphone. I came across this information today and thought someone might get some value from it. I am providing a rough machine translation for those that cannot read Chinese. I can say they are musical and drive nicely with Mojo/Poly.

Japanese Amazon Has them in different colors.

I’d buy one blind in that metallic teal color if Linsoul can get it.
