My schedule is flexible. You have any ideas of where on campus you think we could meet, Kamak?
 

 

[johnman1116]

community center at norte. all other rooms at uci are either too small or require a free. 

 

[Kamakahah]

I posted what johnman1116 sent me in the first post. He reserved the room for tomorrow from 11 to 3. That might be hard for me to make honestly.

How does that work for y'all?

 

[j0val]

I can probably make it around 2pm. Hopefully you guys are still there if it's going on.

 

[Kamakahah]

I would be gone by then. If we do it tomorrow.

 

[johnman1116]

Lets regroup and aim for a set time and date next week. This isnt working out.
maybe this weekend?

 

[Kamakahah]

If you guys want, you can still have it today. I'm out of town this weekend.

Totally down for Thursday still, but we can postpone it for another time

I've got to meet a client out in the far reaches of Irvine / Lake Forest late this morning, so just in case you decide to meet, I'll put some of my gear in the car and check this thread on my phone. Been more than a few yrs since I attended UCI and I'll def get lost at least once though haha (Community Center at Norte?).

Anything going on?

I appreciate the efforts of those reserving the room. Maybe we can do next week? Have a set day and time at least a few days in advance.

 

[Kamakahah]

It's appears no. I'll set and pole for date and time. That way we can just pick.

 

[johnman1116]

interestingly enough, I ended up getting both the Mad Dog (3.1 alpha) and HE-400 without a listen...

Lol I went from:
Crack, HD650, DT880 to HE-400, Mad Dog 3.1

Any impressions?
 
I just finished 3 of the 4 steps for the jergpad mod to the pleather pads on the HE-400. I would definitely recommend you do it. I think they're the best headphones I've owned so far. Previously, I've owned the Grado sr80i & ps500, and also the HD650 with a NuForce Icon HDP amp/DAC. By far, the HE-400's are easily my favorite of the bunch after the mod.

I actually dont have them yet! HE-400 coming Wednesday and Mad Dog coming Thursday. Exciting! 
At a weird state at the moment since I dont have a real main headphone (Momentum, bought the SE215 too [awesome!])
 
Lol im thinking about the Jergpad mod but seems like too much work 

; If the HE-400 gives me any trouble, ill consider it. 
Lots of cutting and taping, correct?

It really is a lot of cutting and taping. I feel like it takes a little more patience than skill. It was my first time modding anything, and I think it was a bit easier than I thought.

I would recommend getting used to the stock sound for a week or so, and then try modding the pads. That's the route I took. Honestly, it took me a couple days to really start enjoying the headphones.
