philodox Posted January 14, 2007 Report Posted January 14, 2007 What the hell is this damn tweak? Jay, TELL ME.Sorry, I've promised not to. Are the drivers going to remain in the plastic driver enclosures, or has he managed to get the driver out of the plastic? I had wanted to do a one-piece enclosure when I woodied the 325 similar to the RS-1, but the plastic driver was super-glued to the plastic enclosure, so all I could replace was the metal outer cup. Just curious...No idea... hopefully we will get more info as the mod becomes public. Looks like mid February is a more likely time that it will be complete. Quote

HiWire Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 I remember the original posting about this... Magnum sounds like a condom size. The builder has a pair of HP-2's to use as a reference, so fear not, citizens. I always suspected some of the drivers in the Grado/Alessandro lineups were identical... Quote
PsychoZX Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Wow I was actually thinking of grabbing a pair of RS1s in a month or so. I may just wait and see what this new product has to offer. Quote

I always suspected some of the drivers in the Grado/Alessandro lineups were identical... actually most of them are, but the "magic" point is what Grado does with the drivers for each set of headphones..mostly dampening the stock driver to work with his sound in mind for the set. Getting stock Grado drivers are easy (if you know where they get them from), the tricky part is tuning the shit out of them to work well with the housing..there are alot of things that go into making a set of headphones.. I played with it before and its harder then one might expect, if this post was in the Casino i may something more or two.. Quote

Gabe Logan Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Now if the price could remain at a resonable price that would be great. Quote
HiWire Posted January 23, 2007 Report Posted January 23, 2007 For some reason the Magnum's name reminds me of Zoolander: Mugatu: Who cares about Derek Zoolander anyway? The man has only one look for Christ's sake! Blue Steel? Ferrari? Le Tigra? They're the same face! Doesn't anybody notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills! Now if it was a ThunderCougarFalconBird... Quote
Guest sacd lover Posted February 28, 2007 Report Posted February 28, 2007 Has any more info on this headphone become available? Quote
