June 5, 200917 yr comment_241410 I had a chance to see these before Nate brought them west and they looked and sounded great. It was the best I've ever heard 225s sound, which have never really impressed me before. Glad you're enjoying them! Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241412 Looks good. However, if I were to have custom cups made, I'd ask for the grills to be closer to the top and remove the button or replace it with a metal/wooden one Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241432 Nate, Beautiful work, you should release your own HC-1 or NM-1 Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241436 While you're at it (ditching the buttons) make a wooden grill as well. As for the headband, heat-steam mold a single piece to match the measurements of Vicki's head for ultimate comfort. Also, make a custom cable for the headphones out of shielded cable encased in multiple wooden segments to allow for flexibility. As a bonus, make the cables detachable so that they can double as a jump rope too when not listening to music. Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241437 you should release your own HC-1 or NM-1 Oh hell to the no! I'd say it takes 8 to 10hrs to turn and finish a set of cups like these. No one wants to pay for that much labor and it'd ruin the fun. Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241465 Simply beautiful...easy on the eyes and fine craftsmanship too. Report
June 5, 200917 yr comment_241480 Should you ever do a pair in quilted maple, we may have to have a talk Nate, if you ever do a pair in quilted maple for Jay, please give me a buzz as I'd love a set in the same wood too. That's some awesome woodwork there. Love the smooov shine on the cups. Really beautiful. Report

June 5, 200917 yr comment_241504 Yeah, I figured as much, just wanted to put it out there, ya know, just in case Nate suddenly found that he had waaaaaaay too much free time on his hands and felt like making some wood cups. Please don't hit me with the Nate... Hey, Nate could give headphile a run for its money. I mean literally run... OK, not funny, sorry, but its 3 am here, me need sleep. Report
