noooo way, ive known you can replace stuff for them but i had no idea you could do that to them. nice.
i need new cushions that go around the speakers, im lookin at that site and not really finding them for the dt 770 but i found them for grado's, could they fit?
do you have any preference for the type of pads, like cloth or leather...

I found that the stock pads are definitely good enough, don't get tempted by the unknown ;)

next purchase after drum heads, is headphone pads.

wow doesn't seem a slight odd, i actually have products that are good enough to get replacement parts for. :eek::)

I JUST saw this thread. If you are on head-fi you probably know who I am by these pics.

That Shuffle + headphone amp idea is actually very good. I might just do that, except I'll be using a CMoy and much crappier headphones (Apple In-Ears). :)

Here are my phones. Will pick up Apple In-Ears soon... I'm not an outrageous audiophile but I'm getting tired of the muddy sound of the Skullcandies.

Panasonic RP-HTX7s, somehow found a pair for only $13.

Skullcandy Smokin Buds. Blech!

And of course the iPhone headset.

my one complaint about my vmoda vibes is that they are slightly uncomfy so i ordered a set (well 3 sets) of these for them, hopefully this will fix that. they seem to be well liked among everyone who uses them.

oh and i have vmoda vibes in chrome (old style with the straight plug).

Not really much point... In-ears don't take much juice to run, so amping them won't make much difference in terms of sound quality. If I were you I'd take the money you would spend on a cmoy and Apple headphones and spend it all on a (slightly) nicer set of in-ears.

i love my comply tips if thats anything.
but you really have to be careful walking around with them, you can not hear s)*& even if your music is low.

be careful :p

they are way better, you dont even feel you have them in. i know the vmoda's silicon tips are really uncomfy and you really feel pressure with them in your ear but the foam tips are a world difference. i hope you got the right ones for the vmoda ( comply T-400)

So comfortable, no ear fatigue.

those look kinda familiar

Ahh yes, I checked back a few pages and I see why.

They're phenomenal. They blow everything I've ever put on my head away! Including all the Sennheisers... :rolleyes:

I've considered a pair of Beyerdynamic 'in-ears' for my iPod... any experience?

ah, very nice. I've got a pair of SR225's as well and actually preferred them to the RS-2's, they just sounded more fun.

Larry at Headphile does a great job, he woodied my DT770s a couple of years ago and they were beautiful.

hey does the wood mod do anything besides look cool?
o btw zebra wood is sexy, along with curly maple, and this other wood i can not remember.
if it is just looks, an inlay would look sick.
