Ha was that a lucky guess or from memory
Yeah, already asked him about it a while back.
He's got a clone I think, and uses DIY leather earpads. So it's not quite the same.
I guess these are too uncommon.
Yes identical but different branding.
Stock form I would say close to what is posted in the wiki
These now have an unconventional type mod.
PM has been sent .
khbaur330162 has some also by the way, and is the fellow who kindly posted the pics at the wiki... Sure a strange rear venting in the first chamber.
His pics show 6, but that may be after magnets were removed in that section= could be a view from inside rather than the pic I posted externally. Mine only have 4 offset ones.
2 at top towards one side, 2 at bottom towards other side.
No idea what mine look like with magnets removed not about to chance that one.
Excuse the crappy resolution I did not have time to take a clear shot before a battery drain and the macro setting was not cooperating.
Picture with stock round felt damping disc removed.
fellow orthohead,
does anyone could share how worth it Amfiton TDS-15 price vs performance?
just curious..
I know Snoory has torn these right down and placed the magnets more closely ( aligned more accurately ) and removed any of the rear obstructions that might reflect backwaves, he might have even polished the magnets up a bit more precisely.
According to him there are some that are better than others, but how to identify that is unknown I have not seen pics of those early ones.
Sub-bass might need some help, they respond to bass boost well. There is a bit of a low end roll-off.
There are different versions I assume the resulting sound has to do with the various damping methods, though reading the Russian forums it might be a combination of the dampings
and / or the exact model together that makes one better than the others.
I have no idea what an early version looks like from the external markings.
His description seems to be all about whether the driver is held in place with screw or clips. Early version uses screws to hold the drivers in place.
Of course no way to know from an auction about that unless someone posts opened-up pictures.
I have a set that is biased towards the high end ( nicely of course ) that has gold dots + lettering,
and a set that seems slightly murky in comparison that has white writing and
no other symbols.
>Both have stock pads that are restuffed perfectly.
It might be down to internal damping methods(?) I have yet to check= that will be upcoming when I get time to add in some Sorobthane to see how it extends the low end, and I can get pics then compared to what I hear from each.
They seem to go for a fair bit $$$ and I cannot speak to the maximum potential of them just yet.
Just for sure= the low end has some roll-off in both sets here. In stock form of course. Who knows about modding.
If anything can do it Sorbothane can combined with some fancy damping.
Hope this helps. I know it is not helpful as far as placing a value on them, it's all just up in the air until I figure that finalized sound out. All I know is that I hesitate spending the large amounts currently being asked for them, now that I have the two versions.
Depends on sonic preference, but they sure are a neato driver.
