    Fostex T60RP

    4-pole connector, because a balanced connection requires 2 contacts (positive and negative contact for each channel) and 3 contacts for an unbalanced connection, because 2 negative contacts are combined into one contact - a common ground

    Fostex T60RP

    You need to look for a cable specifically for Fostex t60rp headphones, because different headphones may have different cable pinouts. I can advise you to cut off the 3.5 connector in your defective cable and solder a new one in accordance with the Fostex pinout (in the messages above I attached...

    FOSTEX T50RPmk4 RP

    Fostex T50RP mk4 support balanced connection out of the box. For a balanced connection you need a balanced cable (pinout is the same as for T60RP). The headphones come standard with 1 unbalanced cable: φ3.5 mm (4-pole) ⇔ φ 3.5 mm (3-pole) stereo phone cable (2 m) x 1, φ3.5 mm → φ6.3 mm stereo...

    The New Questyle M15i and M12i

    Yes, you are right, I was wrong about this ess chip. I have an M15 and it does not support a microphone. As far as I know, the new M15i is practically no different from the M15

    Introducing the Questyle M15 & the brand new Questyle Shop!

    Using a dimming film, I finally made the LEDs not so bright, so the M15 became pleasant to listen to at night before falling asleep. Previously, these were blinding lights in the dark

    Fostex T60RP

    I decided to make a balanced 4.4 cable for my Fostex T60RP. I took the pinout from the manual that came with the headphones. I soldered the cable, and it converts the audio signal to mono - this is interesting. Where did I (or someone at Fostex) make a mistake? I downloaded the PDF manual from...

    Introducing the Questyle M15 & the brand new Questyle Shop!

    My modifications for the convenience of the Questyle M15. I bought a darkening clear film and covered the screen with it because the LEDs are too bright. I made a new cable because I can, because I wanted to check whether the cable makes a change in the sound (I didn’t find any effect) and I...

    Is it safe to connect 2 headphones at the same time to k7 (bal and se outputs)? I did not find this in the instructions, but it was forbidden to do this in the FiiO ka3 instructions.

    Emotiva GR-1 headphones

    I have a guess that Airmotiv GR1 and Tripowin H1 have the same speakers. Here is a description and specs of the speaker for H1: 50mm Dynamic driver with 3-layer Polymer Diaphragm 105 dB Impedance: 32 Ohms The Tripowin H1 utilizes 50mm dynamic driver made with a custom 3-layer carbon polymer...

    In your case, ferrite rings at the ends of the cable can help. They reduce high-frequency interference, that a long cable can accumulate. Adding ferrite rings helped me to remove the clicks on a cheap usb cable.

    LETSHUOER S12 - Next big planar? (Impressions & Discussion)

    I recommend using soft glue so that the shell can close tightly and lock into place. superglue is not the best option. glue b7000 should be good (excess glue is easy to remove from the shell)

    LETSHUOER S12 - Next big planar? (Impressions & Discussion)

    as for QC, I tested my s12 on a tone signal and heard a tapping additional buzz of the speakers at a frequency of about 170Hz. I wrote to LS support with a description of the problem and still have not received a response or clarification of the problem. think that support from Letshuer is very...
