@Lothar_Wolf Thanks!!! Also, you must be really tall, based on the headband pics you posted. If I extended my Phantoms that length its going to be on my jaw.
Just got mine from Linsoul. It looks like it’s from the new batch as it comes in this portable case…
Thanks for capitalising the Y…
Mate, most of what I say is meant it jest. If we all just agree with each the whole time this hobby would just involve listening to music - could you imagine a world where this happens!?
Anyhow, no hard feelings.
I can’t find anything in this thread about a zmf headband cover… would you mind showing me where to find one?
edit: I think I found it… is it the pilot pad?
Pilot pad would add comfort to the top of the head band. I find the stock headband good. No discomfort to mention. I wish they didn’t use plastic where the yoke slides into.
I do find them uncomfortable and I’m looking for replacement headbands myself. If I can’t find a decent one I’ll just use nuggets or something.
EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, I have a bag of memory foam I took out from a pillow. I’ll look into crocheting something and stuffing it with the memory foam
I’ve come to a conclusion that recommending the Phantom is not a good idea. I love them.
Now we need to get s_beck to make us the replacement grills.
s_beck did you post in headfi.org with pic of hifiman 4xx? If it was you it looks dope.
Was not me! I actually bought a 3D printer that’s getting here today and am designing some grills now…
Hopefully will be showing some off in ~ a week or so!
I’m actually planning on designing something a bit tricky that implements the fazors in the grill itself (one piece that comes down and touches off on the magnets). That one might take a bit longer
I like your thinking. So you have phantom?
I do indeed! I did however (very) regrettably manage to destroy one of my drivers trying to take it apart and modify it…
I WOULD NOT suggest trying to take your drivers apart, lol.
Anyway, IT’S FINE, linsoul is being helpful and is going to try and get a single driver for me from the factory, haha.
In the mean time, I can still make parts for and take measurements on one of the cups
At least you can use the broken one to figure stuff out.
Acidleak:
He lost me at “used LCD” - F*** Audeze.
M0N:
Just curious, why do you dislike audeze so much?
Acidleak:
No reason at all to be honest - My dislike of them comes from my dislike of some people I know who owns them. (I’m probably one of the most irrational people you would find on the internet some days)
This probably goes against the community guidlines

Eh, he’s just having fun and he isn’t attacking anyone. Don’t think its a problem at all.
Edit: pretty sure that dms is lazy and that’s just the default guidelines anyway (not that because of that they are invalidated, but I don’t think there is really anything wrong here)
So you didn’t get the DJ looking headphone box. That’s a shame. If you got both then I’m clearly pissed.
God I can’t fucking stand some people in this community. So many “critics” that come from nowhere who have no idea what they’re talking about
Yeah, the pilot pad sorry I was to lazy to locate it for you…
@odog Lucky to get the buttcase that the reviewers were asking for. The rest of us batch 2 did not get a second set of pads… its like they randomly decided to throw things in the package.
Was soo close to getting these, but went with LCD-2.2 pre Fazors instead for the same price. I think once this thread went to EQ:ing I decided it’s not for me.
Connor_g I’m trying to follow but can’t find what pissed you off. Please elaborate.
The lcd2.2 is great. Especially with the vegan pads
