  1. jason i think i figure out what the problem was my R2 & R3 were different value created an un-balance in the ground ? now trying different value for R2/R3, the 4.7K on both seems to hav reduced the hissing, going to try 100k the list on Tangent site was really confusing, i think Kenshinz might hav the same problem too as he got the same set of components for himself as well , there was only 2 resistor of each value, so i ended up with R2 and R3 different value
  2. sorry but they also look very nice
  3. my floor is clean the original version of the plug did not sound good & they were had to wear, keeps dropping out. then i change them to this current sponge, they fit much better, and the isolation is great (ask jason, he tried it before) i think the isolation really brought out the full potential of this plug, it can hit lows like no other headphones i tried, its one of the main reason for my building the Cmoy, want to see if the cmoy can better the sound, cause it lacks a bit of details, but the lows will make u dizzy but i'm not sure what sponge they r...ETYs... they cost $2 each so far it has, at least to me, sound better the the sonys, but i never try the Etys before
  4. happy b-day jason no need lar blues, i introduce him my sister
  5. do u mean the shield of the input and output? yes, they are short together and connected to ground
  6. ask Hung Bros today for price on this baby, he told me should be a little over $200 but not confirm yet. also saw the new AD series there, Hung's got the full range AD-300 to 700
  7. Cmoy done liao but got problem...i'm hearing a "hissing" sound during the quite parts, kind of like its raining outside, also theres a click sound when change track is it normal? or can the sound be improved? the music itself sounds ok, need more listening to be sure. one more thing, i hav not put in the volume control yet, now using the volume control on MP3 player, whats funny to me is that without the amp i listen to it at abt 28 on the player, with the amp i only need to put to 5 and i can hear
  8. got my op-amp today also got 1 extra for kenshinz, when i ask the lady for 1 more she said i got to pre-order again thought they would hav at least keep 2 or 3 extra on hand kenshinz, u want to collect your op-amp tomorrow? let me know if u want, i'll bring it along with me to work
  9. nope , i tried even those that hav components shelfs up to the roof no OP-AMP, "we don't carry this" was all i got from them, even at Federal, i gave them "opa2132pa" the lady told me no, don't hav, but they hav opa-637 only when i gave her RS part no. then she say "oh yeah, this one is opa-2132pa"
  10. i remember u ask for lastest news regarding availability of OP-amp in SLT ? the one i ordered from Ferderal is OPA-2132PA, had to giv them the RS part number for them to find it price $10.50 before gst they also OPA-637 & OPA627 priced $40 ++ i went with the 2132
  11. i want a Super-Charge CMoy with regulated power supply, bass enhanced, runs on only 1 AAA and smaller then my Mpio...
  12. i seen jason's PPA (suntec mini meet) it didn't look like its got anymore space what u builded jason can i use it on my almost done Cmoy?
  13. will ask Hung Bros tomorrow for more info
  14. is it for your PPA or somthing new? i ordered the OP-amp from Ferderal today, 1 for me another for kenshinz, the lady say i can only collect tomorrow think i will get 1 more for myself when i go there want to try the 1 batt layout, already bought enough parts for 2 more Cmoy
  15. there is another interesting pair of cans in the same page Audio Technica TI = titanium rite, so this also a first of its kind? ATH-CM7TI titanuim earphones anyone?
  16. anyone notice the other non-wood cans in the same series? EM9D & EM9R EM9d EM9r i suspect the 9d may be an open headphone while the 9r is closed
  17. i see Audio Technica has put "sovereign" on this as well, could mean they plan to market it as high-end portable headphones?? also as woodies, they make good candidates for future "limited edition" cans
  18. something just hit me its small enough, maybe we can find someone to make leather coverings for it call it ATH-EL9
  19. it does look like the same Cherry wood as the W1K does that put it as the only ear-phone with wooden housing?
  20. i think the amp is going to cost more then the headphone
  21. if the wood is the same as the W1000 series... close to $200 maybe the EM7 is $85 retail at Hung (their stock just arrive last week)
  22. maybe also the Cmoy i'm building...cause i can't find a good case for it, may be building my own case out of wood
  23. was going to get the EM7, but decided against it after reading some threads in here, is it that bad? u think the mini woody will sound better
  24. looks like the EM7 in wood
