    Custom Headbands for the Tecsun HP-300?

    Looks like the tecsuns are just pinned in - no screws. I think I'd like to keep them attached to their mounts/handles. Just need the band replaced. Edit: Similar to the grados.

    Custom Headbands for the Tecsun HP-300?

    The headband on these are terrible, being quite painful after an hour or so, and only after putting on a headband cover. I'm curious what custom headbands exist for these?

    Testing Methodology - Why do we seek preference curves?

    For an example: Why isn't this the standard as opposed to diffuse field/harman targets, harman simply being a preference curve?

    Testing Methodology - Why do we seek preference curves?

    Why don't we take a known linear sine sweep from 0 hz to 20'000 hz and record it in various simulated ear shapes and measure the frequency response graph? For in-ear monitors, why then don't we then measure the frequency output in that same simulated ear from a IEM and compare the frequency...

    Tecsun HP-300,Exciting measurement results.

    Incredible headphones under balanced. The only problem is how uncomfortable they are. Does anyone know a way to get a lighter headband??? I think it comes from how hard the headband is, and how heavy the restraints.

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    I ended up ordering a pair of LP-6 V2 thanks to Erin's review. I feel the bass would be suffice until I could afford a pair of subs. I was leaning towards the 308s but I keep reading about the nasty hiss thanks to JBLs amps. It would get to me for the lack of immersion. Cheers all!

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    I see. That's what I get for doing my quick research between breaks on my phone. I thought he mentioned 86 dB, not 96 dB. Phone wouldn't be calibrated unfortunately but I do know 80-90 dB by ear. I have witnessed the calibration for some halls. I'll check amir's review again. This is good...

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    Where do you see this? I don't see any break down of the crossover anywhere? Do you have a link? I live in Canada. I'm leaning towards the Kali LP-UNF but still super curious about these Santronics but outside of that fr graph, I don't see anything. I'd like to go with 308s, but that woofer...

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    I'm thinking of bumping up my budget to $500, and preferring a 2.1 system. The Santronics plus a Sony SAC29? Or maybe with the Sony SSCS5s? I think some EQ with the Santronics may be quite surprising? A bump around 250 and 500 and a low shelf past 5K?

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    What else budget options do you suggest? If I increase my budget, I'd have to wait till Black Friday or Christmas. Thanks for the input. I think I'll stay clear of these until a good review gets put out to confirm everything. This is good to know. I didn't think of the verticality. Might...

    Thoughts on the Samtronic 5.25 in speakers?

    Thanks for your input. I was looking for some cheap, compact desktop speakers and these from scrolling. Thought to look into them. I want something compact just to serve as an alternative when my headphones are getting annoying. This with a cheap sub may be an option. Or I may just finance a...

    Do the presets save onto the DSP version if you switch devices?

    TANCHJIM One IEM Review

    I don't think you should have an issue. The presets appear to be very nice. Ref: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/tanchjim-in-ear-monitors-impressions-thread.901366/page-101#post-17814895 Seems super solid honestly.
