SIVGA Oriole any other options in that $200 range?

Seriously looking at these.

But wondering if I got enough juice from the liquid Spark.

Your setup should have more than enough power for the M1570C. There are little to no vents on that and is almost entirely closed-back.

So that M1570C ad is now closed. Did you buy it? If so, then you will need to get this headband cover to protect the headband pleather from flaking:

No my funds did not clear the bank in time. He had another buyer so I told him I would pass. It was a good deal though. The only difference between the 1070C and 1570Cs is the connections on the hp from what I can tell. I would rather have the 1070C connectors. There is not much info on these.

Well, here is another 1570C that you can throw another offer of at least $200 their way :

I posted on the other thread on the difference between the 1070and 1570. You would not happen to know that would you? I also don't know if I want the 4 pin out on that.

Oh yeah. So there is also a M1060C as well and even some grills that will apparently fit on the M1060C ear cup frame (remember everyone using Brawny/Bounty paper towels as filters for extra bass on M1060s years back):

Put on offer in but I don't think they will take $200 . There seems to be a lot of those on ebay trying to make double what they paid for them or more. I am also watching those 1060C and don't know if I want to do head band mod.

Whelp, I ended up with some Sundara closed- back hp. Little more than I paid for my Fostex B stock. I got them form the classifieds on here. Fingers crossed I will be happy with them.

Did you verify their feedback and such?

 

[Zodlaw]

Sure did, Olumm has a classified feed back is 141 and they were all very positive. I felt bit better getting them off of here rather than somewhere else and they are suppose to ship Monday.

Okay. . So when you get them, do check them as thoroughly, see if the warranty is transferable and if not, whether the original owner will help out in the warranty process, and post feedback with the original post listing when you are ready.

Any suggestions for future modest cable upgrade?

 

[pbui44]

This cable should work:

One in double-length as well:
