digger945 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Arriving soon...The "Smegginator" extremely modded woody T50RP. Can't wait to see more of Smeggy's fine craftsmanship. Did he supply everything or did you have to send your cans to him for mods, or maybe his own personal cans?
swt61 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Can't wait to see more of Smeggy's fine craftsmanship. Did he supply everything or did you have to send your cans to him for mods, or maybe his own personal cans? I sent him two pair of T50RPs. Tony (from our Milan, Italy contengent) bought the headphones for me to modify for he and I. It just didn't look like I would have the time to get to them though, and quite frankly why not go with the tried and true Smeggy creation. I doubt I could top it. And they look so damn good!

Fungi Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 *hops on the revision bandwagon* K701 HF-2 would probably go here, need to order it ESW10 SA6 MX760 MDR-V6 PX100
Duggeh Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 I always like the whimsical of-the-moment nature of an updated post in this sort of thread. 1) O2 2) AMT 3) H2 4) K1K 5) Orthodome #4
atothex Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Meh, might as well jump in meself: 1. VTG 2. AD2000 3. HD650 Top 2 might change with source/amp upgrades... we'll see. Also, HF2 on the way.
Aimless1 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Posted June 4, 2009 Seems like I'm not quite settled yet. From my current headphone inventory... 1. Ath-W5000 2. RS-1 (newer style) 3. K501
Spiug31 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 St. Andrews doesn't have an engineering dept would be the biggest hurdle. try Dundee Uni, Abertay did have mechatronics and some other engineering disciplines too so either of those may be viable.
Dusty Chalk Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 AT L3000 Leatherhead (listening to these right now) Grado PS-1 AT VTG Stax SR-202 AKG K501 Sony MDR-CD3000 AT A950LTD AKG K271 MkII -- I think, haven't listened to them in a while Beyerdynamic DT770 Grado HP-2(-3?) -- wow, I didn't realize my tastes had changed so much that these had sunk so far -- it's not that I dislike them, they're just so different from everything else I have, that I have to be in a very specific mood to want to listen to them, and that mood has hit me less and less of late. Sony MDR-F1 -- I really haven't listened to these in a while, don't even remember what they sound like Ditto everything else (other Beyers -- DT931, DT990, something else, the blue metal limited Audio Technica from years ago)

Hopstretch Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 HD800 | | HF-2 | HF-1/HD600 HD650 | | | RS-2 We'll have to see if woodying the HF-1s can move them back up the ladder.
malldian Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Stax Lambda (once I get them working again) Realistic Pro 30 (modded these to be pretty damn musical) AKG 240DF Various SFI projects that are no where near completion. manaox, how are your Fostex's modded? I plan on getting a pair soon. Accounts from NoNoNoNoNoNo place them above the 701s. I didn't especially like them but we will see.
manaox2 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 manaox, how are your Fostex's modded? I plan on getting a pair soon. Accounts from NoNoNoNoNoNo place them above the 701s. I didn't especially like them but we will see. They have bitumen stuffed around the drivers and a few strips inside the cups, reflex dots cut from electrical tape, and craft felt over the back of the driver. I'm still working on my mods, though I've put off playing with them for a while now and have to resolder a wire I pinched off from the driver joint before I can make any new auditions. I bet I would prefer them to the K701 in memory as well, but haven't directly compared and believe that can be more attributed to my taste in headphones.

kelvinz Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 HD650 ESW-10jpn SE530 / ATH-900Ti E2C what about your 650's do you like better over the ESW10JPN? I find myself liking my ESW9A's more than my 650's
grawk Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 That would be completely amp dependent. With a great amp, the 650 is great, otherwise, it's ok
