I'm back looking for more advice for my T50RP woodie project. I'm rather concerned about weight, but still want to use some wood. My Dad has a bunch of Meranti hardwood.
I'm thinking now of making most of the baffle/cup one piece of wood so the headphone is more like a jar with a lid facing out than facing in. This way the baffle will be more rigid given less ear-side thickness. The walls should add a lot of rigidity. I noticed that Grado woodies are one piece of wood. I'll then have a lid on this baffle/cup combo.
I'm dead set on being able to swap out the damping/cup lid quickly and easy for different circumstances. (e.g. for the train).
Is there any reason not to have a one piece baffle/cup?
