Yeah, the new prime lack of offered Atmos and hdr got my 'feels' too, : not that I've yet used "Primes"-atmos Playback. I'm still looking forward to figuring out how to get the firestick to work (interface with) an android phone display from the realiser... maybe there is any way?
I want to listen to Dolby Atmos Tidal tracks on the go (from the A16/phone screen swiping theough apps and running the firestick), but to my knowledge can't use the firestick fisplay interface from a second screen, like the phone, unless the (HDMI-Out) display has video-in (no phone, i think, though i should check the experia). just to try it first... but don't want to use the bloody remote to type in track by track, the music selection.
Can any of the firestick / Max Or Ultra wirelessly connect to an external device yet, while also feeding the music through the Realiser? Interface by phone or even pc I guess would be nice.
I would rather not constantly swap the cable between pc and realiser, and phone/external display, if it were available...
Also, to all super-secret HD800 users... if you leave the HD 800 at home so there's little to no chance at Damage... this actually looks pretty good... I think it would Firm up and Even further improve the 'present wave presentation from the HD800, this actually looks like a phenomenal idea. I'm going to remove my plastic covers.
I've considered a much more open "fibbonacci" cover for the HD 800 drivers... that would open up the already (wonderful) HD 800 driver transducer wavePlane to the Ear.
Will let you know if I break my HD 800 drivers by simply removing the plastic... It comes off with just bolts, so looks unlikely.
Could be a modest change in the modeled sound after rechecking the hpeq
People just posted about "delidding" their headphone in the CES HD800 thread.
ha! "OverClock-My-Headphone." I can Just See it... Realiser "Listener discretion IS-ADVISED."
Seems like a fairly good idea for the Realiser virtualization delivery...
*Maybe not just yet. It's got to be dismantled to remove the plastic shield. Probably would want to replace it with a more open shield but then lose the sdr, if the 6khz peak isn't too bad. Or just leave it stock.. although it appeared pretty simple. I'd reapply the dust cover to the new shield, or potentially just carefully mill portions out of the previous shield.. I think the dust cover to avoid pokey objects in all mainstays, is useful and probably worth keeping.
I think to keep this simple with the strength of the original ribs, and the optional helmholt resonator, I would keep the silicon -reapply the fabric shield layer, to the plastic shield right after milling, but remove select sections of the plastic ribs. To open, hollow it up some. I would mill the OD of the black outside ring some more to open up the width of the driver by 3.5 or so more mm radiating-diameter and remove 8 out of twelve 'inner-radius' ribs, and probably remove the liner of the larger ribs along the perimeter, again, extending the radiating area of the HD 800 driver, with respect to the in front of the ear / head by about 3.5 or 4mm... that would be simple and fun...
