  1. Clearly bias related but what exactly is going on is hard to say. Could be that the phones have arced and there is some residue on the diaphragm causing it to act up. No way to open up the drivers to check though.

    Tell me about it, plenty of projects to finish and I have to find a SR-007A to mod...
  3. There are many variables at play here, the breakup frequency of the drivers being the number one culprit. Power isn't really a factor here as that is more dependent on damping and the electrical characteristics of the driver which change very little as you alter the tension. Even though the mylar is "loose" it doesn't move a whole lot, rather it vibrates.
  4. My guess is a different driver (mylar tension that is) but the only way to confirm this would be to get our hands on replacement drive units as they would be clearly marked. As for the cryo, I'd file that under marketing and nothing else.
  5. Yup, it's a part of the whole rape and pillage thing we do so well.
  6. Flipping
  7. The small ones usually don't have a split volume know but some do have a built in balance control. What we could use are detailed pics of the circuit to see if you can take some measurements to see what's going on.
  8. The cable has a copper core but a thick layer of silver on top of that, similar to what APS and others are doing. It's probably a fine cable but I don't buy into that it has changed the sound this much. I'd rather say that the SR-404LE uses the same drivers as the SR-SC1 and thus sounds more like the older phones. The thinner pads might make a difference but on the SR-404 I modded I also used the newer, thinner pads and they sounded pretty much the same. I would like to try the cable on a SR-007 though...
  9. Happy Birthday!!!

    Well that and we just eat fast food most of the time. There are 12 Subway's in Reykjavik, 4 KFC, 7 Domino's, 3 Pizza Hut and the list goes on and on in a city of 200.000. That's not a bad piece but it reflects the atmosphere of the time it was written in. After a year of what could best be described as parts of Orwell's Animal Farm things have moved on a bit.
  13. I was thinking more about sugar glazed...

    Yup... Truth be told that guy got to see us at our worst, protecting our survival by extending the protected waters around us in the Cod Wars.

    Can't wait to try the WES.
  19. Hmmm I should have a couple of those sitting around somewhere... *evil scheme brewing*
  20. Holy crap!!! Any particular reason why you hanging onto a 10+ year old Creative DVD drive or two?
  21. Thanks for that. The black socket just looks odd on there...
  22. I just did a quick search and couldn't find any but it's no problem to pick up one when I go to the local electronics store. I'm there pretty much every day...
  23. With electrostatics there is always the possibility of repair.
  24. No idea, way too many variables.
  25. I might even have an extra DIN plug somewhere if you would need it.
