Well, now it logged in as standard. Hmm.

Quite happy for my h-f account to be inoperable. I don't operab it anyway.

I got a feeling that's not the end of -10db switch.

They should have made the Magni 3+ the iemagni. It's' such a better amp than the heresy. Maybe it's not quiet enough though or something.

Holy crap that impulse response at 29min is incredible

i wonder if this scales up and you can make a huge panel of them

Maybe Marv will make an appearance in one of these videos now that he has a nice microphone :D

Haha just to be clear I was poking fun at the (probably not fake but yet-to-be-confirmed) recent Audeze redesigns with the rounded edges and sliders that go through the bands. Not a fan. Genuinely didn't catch that in the vid though, good eye!

Here are the two photos side-by-side as I posted on HF. It is the beginning and end of the current LCD shape probably. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E61MdF-XoBAh_w5.jpg:medium

WTF I don’t ever look at head-fi. Post it here.

Link would be appreciated if not too much trouble, but yes a copy/paste would be best perhaps (I don't really go on HF either)

Nothing important, just trying to keep the playing field level-headed, but lets push forth the mighty dollar. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/introducing-the-audeze-lcd-r.958720/post-16540792

Maybe this should be in the meetups subforum? I'd bet it's a lot more than 1 or 2 SBAF members...

These are a bit smaller than the Brainwavz pads; you'll need to cut a slit in the skirt from edge to seam to get them over the baffle. They're a more supple pleather than the Brainwavz, maybe also softer foam, and are a bit less bassy. Smallish openings, not good for big ears.

What pads are on them now? He used 3 different pads over time AFAIK.

I believe they are the HM5 angled pads currently. I have old Mr. Speakers pads, but I have no clue what any of them are at this point. The paradox has some good traits hindered by some closed-back type struggles.

You should follow your instinct. lol

HA HA HA! Heck-No. I think I prefer the HD58X over the HD660 out of the "New Kids on the Block"

You are a bass-head, admit it. Find a "good" DT1350 and you will be amazed.

Angled Brainwavz are the same exact dimensions as the LFF pads that come on the Code-X / Code-6 / etc. He just stretches them to fit the plastic rings and then tapes them down. Not my favorite on the HE6 personally but it does help to tone down the treble and bring a bit of presence to the mids.

I think that is what is currently on mine. There is no Left/Right pad. The seam is at the top on one pad and the seam is on the bottom on the other pad. Good to know for spares. I never tried any of my Mr. Speakers pads, but I did love my Mad Dog / Alpha dog for what it was.

On my Mk3s I liked these ones better than the BWs (not quite so bassy), but couldn't get them on without cutting off the skirts: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07BKSW8GF

People always mention the "sound stage" of the Utopia - it has always reminded me of being a kid and taking my bookshelf speakers and laying directly between them and messing with the toe angles.

I recently found this white paper when researching the flax drivers vs. Focal's "W-cone" (glass/foam sandwich). Lots of good technical information and graphs in the latter half: https://www.focal.com/sites/www.focal.fr/files/shared/catalog/document/focal-flax_sandwich-whitepaper.pdf.

Also: https://www.focal-america.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/CP_flax_gb.pdf ("The 'W' sandwich cone remains the best solution for audiophile speaker drivers.")

All this is re: woofer cone materials, not tweeters. Focal uses Be or Al/Mg composite for tweeters, same as its headphone drivers.

I use their cable with the adapters with my Andromeda Gold. I believe Mee is the collab partner on those. I know it isn't "fancy", but it does the job just fine.

If it’s the cables I beta tested a while back, the premium cable is very supple and pliable. It was good stuff.

I ordered one of the simple black cables for my Plus + (gym use) and the copper cable to see if it works with my LCD-i4. Hopefully the heatshrink can be molded or removed.

It's because you're doing it wrong. You have to sell and rebuy the headphones so often the pads don't have time to rot.

6 years for me when they turned into crumbs. Layed in the box most of the time...

Rip :(

Sorry to hear about this, my most sincere condolences, RIP.

Now this sucks.....
