Shure SE846 seam fix...
Hey guys, I wanted to share my fix for the seams. Sadly my warranty has been up for a while, so I was left to fix the issue myself. For anyone that doesn't know of the problem, the clear acrylic model is unusually prone to chipping/breaking at the seams for no reason at all except for, what I'm...- eightbitpotion

Foobar w/ Dolby Configed Components (Preconfiged)
Hey guys, I had a really hard time finding this stuff, and finally stumbled across it. So I wanted to host it for anyone that wants it. The credit goes to RPGWiZaRD here on Head-Fi, but the hosted files were removed for some reason. Anyway, this is a great config, and as someone that avoids...- eightbitpotion

I need some advice on wire....quantity vs quality per cable
Okay, so I've had a little project going, and I know this isn't DIY, but bare with me because this isn't actually DIY related question. I've recabled my B&W P7s. The first cable used four 24g copper wires (6 strand) in a litz braid. I was so blown away about the increase in fidelity that I...- eightbitpotion

B&W P7 Recable...
I ended up recabling my P7s. I had a hard time looking for a connector to fit, so I modified one (this took about 2 minutes). Anyway, for anyone that's thinking about making one, I am experiencing SIGNIFICANT transparency and soundstage improvement (twice the Soundstage). Also, the bass seems...- eightbitpotion

Viablue SQ?
Hey guys, so I've been using Viablue connectors for a while, and I was in a bind tonight, and had to take a T6 off of my triple fis. I threw on a different connector, and OMG the sound was much much much fuller, bassier, clearer, more transparent...etc. Now I don't buy into the connector making...- eightbitpotion

Looking for Non-Conductive Epoxy or Resins
Okay, so I've recently embarked on a cable build, and I, for the life of me, can't seem to find a stereo phono that fits (there was a thread about it a week ago or so). In case you missed it, don't care, or simply don't remember, I'm making a cable for a V-Moda m80. I can't find a stereo phono...- eightbitpotion

Phono for V-Moda m80s
Hey guys, so I've searched and can't seem to find another thread about this, so if there's a thread I would like to be pointed in the right direction! I'm looking for a stereo phono for the m80s. I'm talking about the end that plugs into the ear cup. Now if you've never seen it, it's VERY...- eightbitpotion

Momentum phono termination?
Okay, so either I'm a blind fool, or it hasn't really been disguised yet. I'm wanting to do a (actually, a lot) of cable builds, but I'm not one to buy the retail cable and Frankenstein it together.

Ear Question and also Momentum Question...
Okay, so I've been using some triple.fis with a silver cable and iBasso D2 Boa for the past two years or so, and I'm feeling a little nostalgic about non-iems. To not go into great detail, I'm selling the triple.fis and cable for a pair of either Sennheiser Momentums or V-Moda M100s. There is...- eightbitpotion

Help Me Buy Something! (sub-$350)
Okay guys and girls, I've been out of this stuff for a while (been busy with life). I am getting tired of my UE Triple.fis. They sound great, but I want something new that's fun, better bass and easier to put on and take off. I adore the clarity and soundstage of the triple fis, but don't like...- eightbitpotion

Android Music Players!
I haven't seen one of these in a while, and since the apps are updated so much I thought it was worth revisiting. Out of convenience and accepting that phones are now fairly awesome at audio playback with a proper amp... I'm curious as to which music player you use. So vote in the poll and let...- eightbitpotion

Impression Kits?
I'm wanting to send my Triple.fis in for some custom shells but custom impressions seem to cost a lot around me.

Flagships Dynamics gogogo!
It's simple, and we've all seen these before. You get to pick one and price is no subject- which one? edit: I know the orthos aren't dynamics, but how could I leave out these ever so lovable pieces of ear-candy!? Also I accidently typed the ed8s instead of ed10s...- eightbitpotion

Got some new CK-10s....
So I finally bit the bullet and bought some for 200 bucks. I got them in a few hours ago and have been pushing their limits.

Armature IEMs + Trance
So it has become apparent to me that I've heard nothing but dynamic IEM, and since I'm in the market, I am thinking about trying a new type.... I'm assuming the armature is faster thus more resoluted(?). I've been up all night going over threads and reviews, perhaps summing it down to a few...- eightbitpotion

So I traded my old iAudio7 and some HEAVILY modded ex90s (sealed vents, ported, plocked entrance with sticky grid, put some shure rubbers on).... for a 24" LCD monitor, well worth the trade imo, but now I'm trying to find some replacements.

Techflex size?
Four 24G cables..... what size? 1/8"? Also, I'm wanting to use white techflex, but I can only find it in the "normal" stuff.... not the multifilament.
