I have made some different color schemes for HE-1000.
All black, too "heavy" for this design IMO:
A red variant for fun (but I think this one is cute):
My favorite, white / off-white:
I like the white variant better than the original, it’s more classy and fits the design IMO. Instead of using wood veneer they should use lacquered metal (tin plate). This will also get rid of the "cheap" feeling of wood veneer.
YESSSSS!!!! omg, i can totally get onboard with these type of designs.
For the black one: try it with silver rims around the grill (optional), silver suspension system, and silver arms that connect to the earcups. I think that would look pretty slick & add accent colors.
For the brown one: The richer brown looks so much better than the original color!! (tho I'm not the biggest fan of wooden headphones) The headband should be black & a dark rich rosy reddish-brown color wood should be used. Disregard the random pair of headphones but something like this color: http://www.cultofmac.com/217267/etz-wood-headphones-with-microphone/
For the the red one: try it with black rims, black arms, and black suspension system.
For the white one: YES!!! This looks amazing. That is totally my favorite. Can consider white or even grey earpads (i personally don't like grey earpads tho), but the black earpads are fine.
Hifiman should hire you onto their design team! lol. This is exactly what I am talking about!!! Different colors would look so much better!!
edit: @CanDude , how didja do that editing? I want to try making fun colored HE1ks!!! hahaha
