Yeah, I gotta get me an M3 one of these days, or finally build a SS.

I want to know what the differences are because the driver specs are different in power handling and some other minor stuff. It'd be great to get a closeup of the circuit board to see if anything there can be differentiated.

I wouldn't get too concerned at the moment. Fostex has one of the most confusing naming conventions of all time. It's almost impossible to tell what you have from either the box or the model number.

Those are horrendous prices, for any headphone

Cheers ludo, but if I can I'd like to order like everyone else, or I'll sulk I'll have you know, I've been testing the RP regularly with those tracks of yours. as to the YH-1, there wasn't much tweaking done to them as you wanted to work your damping magic on them and rewire anyway, however, once you do your thing on them I think they'll be pretty sweet sounding.

Yep, rehousing is a pretty extreme mod that few will venture into because it's a pain in the ass. Most ortho mods are done in the standard housing. I just go nutz on mine because I can Ludo here and a few others in this thread are very good at the felting thing and plenty of advice and guidance is on hand should you want it.

Heya Ludo, welcome to the madhouse! Heh, the RP is teh awesomez and kicks Yammy butt no matter what Faust and you say As to the felt situation, I'll have to let you know on Friday if I can order some. It sounds like good stuff.

Hmmm, interesting. Let us find a craps table.....

Cool, I hope you guys get them quick. I'm gonna enjoy the in-depth writeups.

Currently they have O1 pads with epoxy putty build up inside the earspace and a sticky back craft felt liner. You can see the shape of the build up in this piccy. The pads are also filled with memory foam instead of the normal sponge.

I'll just wrap that herpie footlong for you sir....

If you've ever seen Russel Peters stand up you'd know exactly how to say orto in Portugese

Dern fuckin' tootin'

No wai!! If I did that people would start wanting value for money, prompt service, good workmanship, repairs, warranty service and all that other balls. I can get away with all that as a shitty hobbyist

You can't have my Stax, but just to show I'm a nice guy, I can give you herpes instead and Reks will happily let you stay in his basement anytime you like.

... and the Zune!

Nom nom nom...

Oh, that's right. Rub it in why don't you. Fucking Mac fuckers....

I think it'll be a little while before we do see the 700 or whatever. I don't think anyone believes that slot will stay empty for too long.

It takes a lot more than that to cause anyone here to even notice, let alone cause controversy. Duggeh was merely pointing out the irony of your wanting less childishness while having a childish sig. And really, nobody here gives a flying fuck what you use or prefer computer-wise. We're an equal opportunity disser

Of course you should. We can be a bunch of fuckers here but it's for good purpose and as long as people aren't being complete knobends we all get along fine. We're not too shy on calling out BS or pointing out when someone is being a prick. Hence the 'sorry about your thin skin' motto.

SR-Lambda 303 404 Nova Sig 003 SR-X 3 Gamma/Pro Beyer ET1000 Koss ESP 7/9 No 950 or O2. I'm not much of a Lambda fan, too whispy and not solid enough for my prefs. The detail level is very good, I'm not sure it'd beat a good stat on that front. I'm not a detail listener so it's not something I focus on but it's pretty good. Anyway, for $73 it's not meant as a competitor and in stock form it isn't. Modded though....

I think they are looking into a 'budget' version but I think he's probably right that there is currently no new model being made. I'd assume all their efforts went into the 800 and the filter down will start once they are flowing and get sufficient feedback.
