Help me choose which wood to get for my HHF-1

[Purgatos]

I voted Cocobolo(I was certain I spelled that wrong... too many 'o's).

It's really pretty.

How can I not vote for the Paduak? The paduak photo is of my HHF1s I think. Unless anyone else went for the sparkly wire up to the 'y' splitter besides me

Oh.. my.. god...

I voted maple, not sure if that was right - I liked the second from the bottom best. Well, actually the ebony ones but you don't list it and I know Larry said he didn't have anymore available. Dang, that pic of the ebony HF-1s is the only headphone pic I actually saved to my PC though! Yum. I'd love to have Larry to a few ebony accessories for me (splitter, plug, etc).

I know it's not one of the choices, but I'm a sucker for Purple Heart.

I think the mahogany of the HF-1 button goes best with the Zebra. Or said the other way around the Zebra wood goes best with the mahogany of the HF-1 button.

If you aren't worried about keeping or matching tones with the button, I like the Cocobolo by itself.

I voted Bubinga (would match my humidor) but the Cocobolo looks sweet and would match my Rosewood speakers. Larry does such beautiful work.


OFF TOPIC: Would it be worthwhile to woody SR225s??

Cocobolo here

Sure, they'd look great...

Anyone else glance at this title and read "got wood from my HHF-1"?

I like the cocobolo, makes it look distinguished. That having been said, when I finally get around to sending my HF-1s in (I need the money), I'll probably have them done in something weird like purple heart. Mostly because my Senns are done in Koa...

Things change, I have it listed now as a choice for all...

 

[yellafella321]

surprising amount of support for the maple...

bump for more input! Will order this weekend!

 

[Mr.Shadow]

Just a thought...
sound wise: isnt maple the best wood out there ?
btw I voted for Maple, i THink it is more grado style, but with more satyle

And I also think that in reality the maple will look more beatifull than the wood samples that are shown by larry.

I really prefer the Maple over the Zebrawood, but admittedly I have also taken a liking to the darker redder wood (whichever).
