Hey guys,

So I've finally made my decision and went ahead and placed an order for a new pair of Woody Darth Beyers (Bloodwood w/ Blackmax recable) from Larry over at headphile.com.

FYI: he just got a bunch of them in stock and they are ready for modding ($165 /ea. + mods, which, incidentally, I think is an excellent price). Check it out if you are interested.

P.S. thanks again for all of the advice.

Hmmm, now that I think about it, it is an awesome deal.

I have to get me one of those in the future. Uberbasshead cans with tamed mids... hmmmm.

You will not be disappointed. Larry's headphone worksmanship is unparalleled.

What wood did you choose? Paduak seems to go well with the Darths!

Congrats on pull the trigger for a set of Woodied Darth Beyers, be sure to post pics and your impression once you've received them.

Congrats on your new Darth Beyers! Did you go with the screen option?

 

[intermezzo]

Umm I went with the Bloodwood... It's similar to the Paduak but the colour is a little bit more red/richer.

I didn't go with the screen option simply because I still want them to be somewhat closed/noise canceling.

I'll certainly post a review when I get them (probably in a few weeks).

I think you'll love the Bloodwood. That's what I chose for my HP3000s and they are drop dead gorgeous. You will not be disappointed.

Bloodwood is really beautiful. Congratulations for your new headphones!

. Here you have some photos to help in your wait (Bloodwood Darth beyers):

Darth Beyers are fun, fun, fun. And they respond very well to equalization if you find them too much "wild". I find myself frequently tuning the bass down, there is so much of it

. Upping the mids make hard-hitting cans for rock too. I'm playing with something like that right now in my behringer DEQ (with a negative gain offset), but possibilities are infinite:

I don't like equalization with other cans, but the darth beyers are really responsive to it

edit: And I like the silver pads too!

More eye candies - though the wood is Paduak and not Bloodwood, and the quality of pics are nowhere near that of carlosgp's.

Yeah, I jumped on that train yesterday too. Ordered them closed, in Paduak. I love the stock DT770's so much, I cannot WAIT to get these! Really looking forward to it!

Congrats. I still miss my maple screened darth beyers...

 

[carlosgp]

What? What happened to your maple beyers??

 

[akwok]

He sold em!
