Shipped whee!
Anyone got any idea how long they'll take to get to Singapore

Yes, V-moda still has my VAMP, and when it get back I will do a comparison between the official sound (VAMP + M-100) vs. DragonFly and M-100. I guess I will throw in a line or two when there is no DAC / AMP from the iPhone 4S or iPod Touch 5G.

If you don't mind me asking, how do you intend to do this comparison? Presumably your VAmp is still the iPhone 4(S) not the Verza. But the Dragonfly is a USB DAC.
i.e. you're comparing an iDevice DAC/Amp setup with a notebook-type USB DAC setup?
Seems to me there's more variables at play than just a DAC/Amp difference, unless I'm missing the goal of your tests altogether.
Don't mean to be critical, just curious.
Only 10 days left until all this shipping talk mercifully comes to a close.....POOF!
Has anyone in Canada received theirs yet? Mine apparantly shipped on Dec 4.
lol, I was just thinking - If V-MODA would put a summary post with current location of everyone's headphones on here every 2-3 hours it'd save a lot of time/space
Well lookie what we have here. I tried the LP/LP2 pads again and this time it sounds MUCH better than what I recall from last time....to the extent where it sounds very similar to my original pad mod.
I must not have had the pads in all the way last time because I noticed that tucking the last part of the pad into the earcup was particularly difficult for me.
dbdynsty25, I would be interested in what you think of the M-100 with your LP/LP2 pads.
With the LP/LP2 pads correctly installed:
- bass is reduced about as much as my original paper towel mod, check
- midrange is more forward, more so than with DigitalFreak's mod, check (Lindsey Stirling's violin is forward and focused-on, check)
- treble extension/upper-treble is increased, making it more suitable for rock music, check (drummer mode is in action, check)
- soundstage is much wider and less deep, check (it passed all of my soundstage tests: Team Fortress 2 sentry surround sound, Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2", Ottmar Lieber's Up Close album, and even passing the binaural recording effects in Pearl Jam's Binaural album)
- instrument separation is increased, check (instruments are better defined, making it a much better contender for rock tracks with a lot of notes being played at once by different instruments)
Interesting interesting. I'm really, really, really liking my LP/LP2 pads on the M-100. Earpad mods are not needed with these pads, so both comfort and sound are not a problem for me.
I'll have to give this a better listen on Wednesday. I need some sleep now. >.>
Ho gawd this is getting me excited for V-MODA's Revolver and Milano headphones. This was on their website. In case you didn't know, V-MODA re-VAMPed all of their products' webpages.
The first quadrant = HUGE win for me
