Sennheiser DSP Pro digital sound processor module (from the old HD580DSP combo).

How many here have 450 hours or more on their stock HFI-780? I ask because mine have gotten much darker past the 450 hours, gone is any shrillness or treble energy. Weird!

Mine have about that, maybe a little more, but I got them recabled, and that eliminated the treble brightness.

Are we the only ones with S2 Audio recables as of now? I think we need to help our little group grow Skylab!

. Honestly though, these headphones recabled are wonderful, although I don't think headphones at $250 should NEED to be recabled to be enjoyable for everyone. I enjoyed them stock, but some people don't.

I ordered a HFI-780 from buy.com (under $200) this weekend. If it like it enough, I may end up selling my A900LTDs. I probably will have to wait quite a while before I decide if I will like it according to the thread (500 hours to burn in!). Anyway, I am looking forward to trying a new can. I use to have the DJ1 Pro but didn't really like it that much. Actually, I couldn't really keep it from slipping off my head, that was annoying.

slwiser: I know that you used to have the a900ltds. Which do you prefer (900ltds or 780s)? I guess that is hard to answer since you no longer have them and you HFI-780 is recabled but whatever you could say will be appreciated. I can A/B them myself but I figure that the 780s will take a long time to settle in and I am eager to hear your opinion.

my HFI580 are brighter than my old DJ1 (classic, not the revised specs with S-logic plus)...

And another one

. I know for a fact that one member is close to buying a cardas to send to Scott for recabling their 780s with.

$185 shipped with google checkout discount. I'll probably end up going for this... I wish there was a clear consensus on where they finally end up. I'm not sure I like surprises when they leave an almost $200 hole in my pocket.

If you answered my posts and MP, i will be one of your clients, but i don't known what is that you are thinking about...

You can always sell on the FS forum and end up with a much smaller hole in your pocket. You can think about it as renting the headphone. It is FUN to try new headphones, is it not?

Edit: I just noticed that you are a student so maybe you don't have as much money to throw around....

Yeah, I don't really have any to throw around. I'm trying to be really careful about this. These are really confusing, I just don't know where to stand.

I'm thinking these are the ones I sold to and am sending on Pangaea's behalf (it's on its way btw).

It's on to a better home that can afford a recable. The HFI-780 experiment is done on my end. I think I reached near 300 hrs burn-in.

Hmm... sorry about that. We went back and forth several times but I guess I lost track on where we ended. Please PM me with a final offering and I'll respond tomorrow (Tuesday).

Now back to our regularly scheduled thread.

 

[Wilashort]

Ok, i will contact you later. But please, answer me the question that i put in the Customized DT990 (MANUFAKTUR) thread and the last MP that i send you eleven days ago. Is very important for me.

Thank you very much
