@meltedfusitediy6625 4 года назад

I think it would be cool to watch you build a set of headphones. I recently rebuilt a old pair from 70s , new drivers, some wiring, leather, and ear cuffs was fun to do.

@phononerd6947 2 года назад

The additional process step to drill out the hole for the cable jack is probably because the cnc mill cannot machine the hole from the top down, as it probably can't access it from the side (not 5 axes but only 3).

@BrucesWorldofStuff 4 года назад

Back when I was 13 or 14 I bought a set of Realistic headphones that have the long 15' cable and 1/4 plug. I think they were something like Nova 10's or something like that, the tags fell off years ago. I know it took me 2 months of saturdays (all summer, 60 days) mowing yards to buy them. Seams like they were around $29.00 but don't remember for sure... They were the Mid range cheap ones that I could get. I remember The salesman plugged them into this real expensive receiver and the sound just blowed my mind! they still sound that good too! I am 65 now and I still have them to this day and I still use them from time to time. There made of this new stuff, PLASTIC, go figure. That was the NEW Rage in the 60's & 70's! We have the new process called Plastic!!!! LOL I would love to have one of your kits but SSI says no you can't have any, no money... :( Love your videos... LLAP

I’m running out of ways to try to reach you. I’ve sent messages for a year. I would appreciate a response. Can I please get the speakers I ordered or a refund?

@memoryerror 4 года назад

I think you mean electronic signal altering. It would have to have a battery or something as well as a ADC and DAC to do Digital Signal Processing.

@dustinwestphal3962 4 года назад

@manishrai6845 4 года назад

Can you make a speaker that's dodecahedron shaped using the CNC in your future builds?

@victic6679 19 дней назад

Knowing how much bass I run through them, I thought the drivers would be wayy thicker. Damn those small drivers deliver A LOT

@prenticefincannon9239 4 года назад

All I could think about for the rest of the video, after you brought attention to the toilet paper was, "should have used Charmin" while playing that commercial of the child bear singing "cause my hiney's clean" in my head haha

@dhruvmeena96 4 года назад

the best driver to use for DIY is Peerless HPD50 it is used in kennerton vali and many other headphones i have made a lot of headphones myself and that driver really sound good and best part is that all the specs like Qts, Qms and Qes specs are there on there datasheet even Bl so it makes it easy to design

@RenePolster 4 года назад

I have These too and i am Reality happy with it. Now im knowing also whats inside..😀😀

@POPDELUSION Год назад

That lil pcb being soldered directly to the jack has always freaked me out... I've never had a pair of headphones where I get nervous everytime I plug them in 😖

@bryce148 4 года назад

Nice teardown. As they're so simple to disassemble you could always respray the wood.

@georgeknox 4 года назад

thanks bro

@peterbrooks9679 4 года назад

Would it be possible to rehouse headphones, not these ones obviously because they look great but I'm talking about your budget ones or would it not be worth it because of the price of rehousing them? Loving the teardowns by the way keep it up!

@skizzlemane1 4 года назад

You can tune those with an ear pad swap 👍🏼 I recommend the lamb skin or protein leather cups. Which ever won’t get you in trouble by peta lol

@elCaxi1971 4 года назад

Headphones can be friggin awesome.. Those Meze 99´s look darn sweet too, maybe give ´em a drop of the ol´ Danish oil, they look a bit thirsty.. I´m not going to tear apart my Grado sr325 prestige´s, but i might just spin Manu Chao - Esperanza and enjoy some headphone delight /w an ice cold brew.. Looking foreward to more anything headphones ! magnetic screwdrivers. i Love ´em and hate ´em.. no toilet tissue, :D ..trousers today, fine - no need to mention next time :D)) Great stuff Kirby :)

@LugsyTL Год назад

Great video. For me, this reinforces the “snake oil” of upgraded cables. The tear down shows the basic tiny wires to the board/ jack output. Plugging in silver, braided etc. high end cables can’t change physics and magically alter the sound of the headphone output. You eyes and wallet know you’ve dropped money, so of course they “sound” better. Lol

@rileybain3132 4 года назад

I am building bluetooth headphones I keep changing my design though lot of thinking of what's best for sound that i'm looking for. I'd like to see what you come up with or your thoughts drivers and bands.

@raoulselten9480 4 года назад

after months of researching and trying out headphones, I finally ordered a pair today, since my current headphones gave up on me -.- I ordered the audio technica ath-msr7nc. not 100% satisfied with the pick, but I need new headphones and these were the best value for money and the best trade-off between hifi and portable. I really liked em when I tried them in the store, but they lack some low mid oompff for my taste. just a little bit of bulk? mids in general I guess. I love mids haha. I'll just try to eq the hell out of em, that should work out I think. combining android's build-in eq and my music player's eq, gives me a total of 11 functionally different bands. I liked the mezes as well, but imo they lacked mids even more. solid pair of cans though, and veeery stylish, they look great

This membrane on the ear pads, that you like so much, is a weak point, because the plastic it is made of degrades after 2 years. Unfortunately, this also affects the replacement sheepskin ear pads from DekonAudio. Fortunately, there are now ear pads on the market that are made entirely of sheepskin and do not have the sewn-on weak spot. The headband is also faux leather and that too is coming apart after 2 years. I had my leather craftsman construct a headband from real leather. Since I wear the Headphone daily, I needed a durable variant.

AKG K550 mk2 - for me, the best HP ever. Not much bass, very good mids and trebles, my type of sound. Reproduction quality and comfort - out of this planet. I had HP 2,5x more expensive, but k550 is the winner.
