That's great news for you as the newer model band also has a silicone type insert between the metal parts that swivel,.
So you get smoother motion and no metal creak/squeek.
Didn't notice it until you mention it. The turning is really smoother.The new headband is much better than the v1. I was all hyped about the lighter weight and wearing the HE1000 for the whole night.
I wonder how did Hifiman make the stock v1 balanced cable with 2 cores? I remember seeing somewhere saying a balanced cable should have at least 4 cores. Just like my ALO Litz 2.5mm, it is also 4 cores. I have been using the stock balanced cable from the very beginning... Should I consider getting an after market 4pin XLR cable for the HE1000?
