  5. after making my cmoy based "brick" headphone amp some ppl think it looks like a bomb tho been testing opa 227 the classic cmoy opamp to me its clear just abit harsh opa 2132 a friend describe it as cleans up his ipod sound which i have to agree but abit laid back opa 1642 soic only opamp but i think its super musical and clearly nice sounding opamp more opamps to test on the way
  6. u mean noise cancelling? hmm why not try the bose quiet comfort but sound wise u need to compare if u like it too or NAKAMICHI - NAH-950NC

  15. Beyerdynamic Headzone Home HT Surround Headphone System with Head Tracker hahaha but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of normal budget im using es7 works well with this test u dont need a certified headphone just test with ur current one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fligG_SLnOc
  16. Got bored so decided to recable my ES7 using 18awg hi grade spc 18awg for headphone is the usual recommendation so this is a simple guide which generally most headphones can follow disclaimer - this guide only for those who dare cos u may damage ur headphones driver or any other things laying out the 4x18awg 1.2m wires, notice one of the white sleeve is marked with a masking tape to differentiate left/right signal, while black wires are both return clamp at one end for easy braiding later marking where wires should split (30-45cm fr headphones would be enough) mount on sth abt your height or lower so easier to braid (your choice of braiding litz or chain) i used a variation of chain braiding so wires dont end up flat done up with monster cable splitter for deco, u can use heat shrink instead if u are making for earphones dont forget to insert ur cable management here too the patient before transplant remove the earpad this was taken from a senn hd25 -1 so got extra foam remove all will reveal screws unscrew both other earphones may be diff - notice tt right signal (red) left signal (green) copper return easiest way to ensure which is signal mark the side with a marker unsolder and remove the strain relief (easier for smaller wires) solder the 3.5mm jack remember which side is left and right and set it accordingly should have used canare f12 cos wires are too thick but manage to fit in wires are too thick so have to remove the rubber grommet to fit in solder the wires in here do be careful and make sure all things cool down as the glue on the driver is soften and may break away from the driver rendering ur headphones useless. something i learnt the hard way so carefully put it back in place be paitent i also used a cable tie +heat shrink as strain relief done and ready to be enjoyed a nice black and white theme sounds much better and bass department improved although for this headphone is marginal as the impedance only 32ohm for higher impedance headphones will likely be much better only bad thing is heavier hahaha
  17. well u could get from forums 2nd hand
