Currawong Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 That I'm impatient to get HF-2s is making me tempted to get a pair of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydon Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 what if we dont like it? returns? if i send you a grado ext cable can you use that instead of the regular wire and set it up in balanced? i can send you nuetrik xlr's. Yes. It looks like we will be offering returns for customers of the pre-order run. Details are still being worked- i should have something up by this afternoon. As for the wire- we can solder a new cable during the modification (as long as it does not involve 'making' a cable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydon Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Have you guys considered doing this for more headphones? ie non-grados? Good question- I found the SR325/MS2 to be the 'sweet spot' for our upgrade design. Since it employs some aluminum parts- modifying it to be all-aluminum was more feasible than the alternatives.

Rhydon Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Could you elaborate a bit more on the sound improvements of your modification? Are we really talking about PS-1/HP-1000 level? What is the difference between SR-325i and MS-2 as the base model? The new headphone is much more 'refined' than stock MS2/325- bass, mids & highs. improvements are across the board. See my post on the previous page. There is no sonic difference between the SR325 and MS2 post mod- this is on purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currawong Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I just thought to ask, is it possible to open them up to re-cable them afterwards (should a customer wish to do so)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhydon Posted August 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 At the moment we're asking customers to send their headphone to us for recabling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
