this phenomenon is what I experience as well. such idea has rarely been discussed here on head-fi. what does that mean to us head-fiers? For one, our brains have some sort of latency or even temporary fixation if you like. That is by learning of our neural networks. They get acustomed to a range and stay there to decipher info from that range. Once we change headphones, and thus that range, our brains say: hey, what the heck was that? And we hear odd and undesirable music. Does that means that we need only one fairly good cans to acheive that kind of end-comfort from music?

I would recommend to all the dx-1000 owners doing the delightful bdh mod which is very easy to do and undo for that matter, it sounds amazing....

It's not easy to undo the pad modification.

And that's one-third of the mod. Although it might be possible to order a replacement set.

 

[Nachkebia]

I did not do the pad mod, I like the distance between my ear and driver

now I am thinking of recabling actually, I fell in love and I am willing to push extra step...

Is it possible for you to post the contact information to get DX1000s repaired within the United States? For example, who do we need to call or e-mail and what informaton do we need to provide them?

Maybe you could post the information in this thread and in a new thread as well, since such useful information will eventually become hard to find even using the search function in a thread as long as this one.

You obviously did a considerable amount of research to get this information. So thanks.

I, for one, would love to send my JVC's to San Diego, have them order the necessary part to fix the broken hinge, bill me for the part and repair work, and then send me the repaired headphones.

Just got these yesterday. Love the sound but the headband sucks, as many have pointed out. Do Beyerdynamic headpads fit around the headband, or do I have to do some mods of my own to fix these.

 

[V1KTA]

Bleh, I'd buy a pair if I can ever justify spending that kind of cash

 

[knubbe]

Welp after a bit of a struggle I modified the headband. First got a Beyer headband which didn't fit at all. So I opened it up and took the foam out. Putting the foam inside the JVC headband was not as easy as I thought it would be. After some struggles I figured out a way to do it. Sadly when I was attaching the cups back to the headband I forgot they were connected and the one I wasn't holding on to dropped and got dinged. Luckily it was only a shallow mark. Oh well, it was worth it though. I can barely notice them on the top of my head now, whereas before they were annoying as heck.

Hi, i will hopefully be a future owner of JVC DX-1000 is a Little dot mk III a good match or is there an amp in the 300-400 $ price range there is?

I hear really good things about the Audio-GD C2 amp. I'm happy with my Little Dot Mklll but i hear the Audio-GD is superior in every way...it is the next headphone amp on my list
