lol. Ya should be careful smeggs with breathin in that stuff. I hear certain woods like Cocobolo have toxic sawdust....
(well you probably knew that, but hey, just in case).
I think the Kingwood youv been using is basically a Cocobolo variant...
Heres one I made earlier:
Ok, ok you got me, im not really Audio Technica!
Anyway, you can see that they have left a v.little bit of grain open on theirs.
Or you trying to achieve their gloss finishes?
Well at these prices buying the whole setup is more economical really, since according to Stoneaudio you get the adapter with it:
- "The Ergo AMT is supplied with its own switching box for direct connection to the LS output of your amplifier."
Alas its a all a bit expensive for me at the moment, but at least its in the radar now thanks to you Doug!
I'll revel in the fun of discovering new orthos in the meanwhile.
Well I decided to ask how much the AMT drivers were in case it wasnt much, but I was wrong.
The price for two each driver is SFR 440, so 880 for both. If Im correct thats $760 .
Hmmm that could pose a small hurdle....... Ya never know, maybe the politics department might have an RP machine...they might have used it to create cupholders for their coffee.
This is cool stuff.
Do you know if you can purchase the driver seperately to the headphone? And once you are done and have time, will you post a mod guide?
wow, thats interesting stuff. What recent mods did you do Duggeh that took it over the edge?
(does it still look as ghetto as it did a few weeks back heh)
I'm very careful with my screws, and if you mean the flower grooves on the screwheads, then mine barely have any wear on them after many openings. Id be most worries about stripping the screw holes in the cups!
You dont happen to remember that scheme you mention that you rashly changed out?
I gotta say, Im loving your YH-100 photo, it captures the headband design nicely. You can see how this was the successor to the YH-1000, it's basically a streamlined version of that, mixed with the Bellini styling.
Blutak! You can never have enough of the stuff. Stick it on your ortho even if just for decoration!! Iv stuffed my HP-50 with bluetak everywhere hehe dont know why (none of it is actually for damping)
Heh yes Ludo is right.
