I've switched from planning to use Sportapro drivers to planning to use orthodynamic drivers. I've spotted a pair of HP-2s that are going pretty cheap and I'm going to try and snap them up. However, I haven't gotten the OA-7 yet and I plan to do the mods once I get back to Hong Kong. A bit anticlimatic, sorry :D  


No problem, I can be patient! Looking forward to the completed project :)

Additionally, I've just snapped up a TDS-5 and TDS-5M - ortho clones of the Yamaha HP-1 apparently. Also, I kind of want to buy an AKG K141M chassis to transplant one of the ortho drivers into...but it costs $50 including shipping, so I'm seriously debating it. Should I pull the trigger?

In the end I declined. $50 was a bit too steep for me.

  Can't remember if I posted this here or not.
 
My in-flight IEM bass-kit.
 
There is no DAP - I use my iPod, but this can be used with in-flight entertainment, PSP, 3DS.. Any source you feel like listening to.

It's past two am here, and I'm up cramming for an exam I have in a few hours after procrastinating for a week.

Currently listening to my current favorite opera through the X5 and my ASG-2. I feel like I'm sitting in a grand opera hall surrounded by my own personal orchestra and vocalists. It's moments like this that remind me why I'm in this hobby

How's the C3 with the T1?


It's especially good in soundstage width and overall smoothness, the presentation takes a strong hold on T1's influences over C3 or equally between them. You can hear the extra refinement T1 offers, tighter low end. I think a stronger line out signal would benefit further as C3 is a little weak in output power, T1 would appreciate being fed the extra power to work with. Overall though for the price it sounds pretty damn good.
