  1. I just made my own. Photographed the logo in an old manual and then cleaned it up. Some progress and now it is ready for testing. Still missing the normal bias supply but that is trivial at best: It is a very, very tight fit and would be an absolute dog to take apart again...

  4. Screw my trademark in Cunt[emoji768]. The second to last post by CuntyBalls should earn him a ban. Especially considering his short but useless involvement in this community, which he misconstrues regularly.

  7. Have you tried a 2" x 4" strip of Sorbothane stuck on your forehead to help dampen your skull resonances?

  8. It's interviewing season here so I expect I will gain at least 10 pounds in the next couple of months. Can't complain about the good free food though. Tonight at Underbelly (for 4 people): Underbelly Charcuterie, House Pickles, Mustard Braised Short Rib, Creamed Turnips and Wilted Greens Grilled Pork Collar, Creamed Greens, Cornbread Jalapeno Cheddar Sausage, Comeback Slaw, Crackers Cha Ca Style Snapper, Dill, Peanuts, Rice Noodle Underbelly Hickory King Grits, Braised Greens, Underbelly Country Ham Warm Ciabatta, Meyer Lemon Herb Butter Korean Braised Goat & Dumplings +wine After BBQ yesterday and going out for dinner last night, I could skip meals for another week and be fine.

  11. I'm getting some 9C silver cables that are coated in sorb for all my headphones. Don't want all all those nasty resonances from the amp crawling up the cable and distubing the melifluousity of the headphones now, do I......

  12. A headphone just for your taste: Kennerton odin. Only 666 grams. Fill it with sorbothane. You are good to go. You don't like it, no worries for I have 2 more solutions: I have a friend who solved resonance issues just like cutting the butter with a hot blade. He doesn't listen headphones any more. Another friend of mine followed different path: Earcups made of granite and headbands made of damascus steel. And earpads made of merinos wool. You should try that. I found an entry when I googled "granite earcups" I want to finish in one post so here is a solution Ed posted: Just check the last two sentences, hilarious. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote: Originally Posted by richard51 It is not possible to repeat too often this Fact : with sorbothane it is necessary to estimate the right amount of compression applied on the sorb. hence to choose rightly the duro and surface of the sob and his height (experimenting is necessary ) ... i had receive the 70 duro pieces i want to put between the plates under the amplifier (30 pounds) in replacement of the 50 duro pieces... More clarity and better effect... I am sure that these things do make a difference. On a similar vein, n my very first sorbing experiments I used clamps to hold sorb onto the metal headband of a Stax SR007A. This was just two pieces of stiff plastic attached by a nut and screw. I found that you could get some variation in tonal characteristics by adjusting the tightness. Generally looser gave more bass, tighter less bass and more treble. I must return to this some day. If you are prepared to do some physical modification of earcups. you could have some kind of tightening arrangement with sorb located inside earcups and then somewhat adjustable. You can see these and two small metal clamps in the picture. I finally settled on just the plastic clamps moved down to the top of the earcups. The other thing to consider with equipment is mounting sorb inside equipment, such as on circuit boards. Obviously you are not going to do this where boards get hot. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
