i'd say try first.. then jump to the one that suits u (budget and preference)..
spending more for something u'd appreciate is always better than getting something u might regret or want to let go later..

but then.. appreciation takes time.. sweat.gif

sibilance is the amount of 'ssss' present, especially on female vocals.. good phones produce them well..
and.. contrary to sieg.. i encountered a lot of headphones/earphones with harsh sibilance.. (some sony iem in the rm150 range have this, a lot of cheap phones in the rm100 or lower..) probably my tolerance is lower..
or probably im just comparing low end models..rclxub.gif
but i dont remember stock ksc75 have this problem.. recabled ones should be better as it is warmer..

got..
=P
recable a burn in driver, immediately u can spot a huge different.
recabling a brand new driver, u need sometime to let the driver run in.
though eventually after sometime. both unit will sound the same.

i thought so too.. but..
just wondering since there is this thread, about how different burnin affect the presentation. quite an interesting read.

http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/495812...wo-unique-iem-s

i do believe.. even tho they might sound different at first.. eventually once the driver have smoothen-up.. it will sound the same according to material specs... but..

.. im just thinking, for recabled version.. since both cable have different.. harmonics.. (sound character, current, volt, impedance.. etc etc..)..
since one was initially burned using different specs.. not achievable without the cable..
would it have a slightly different sound later? hmm.gif

hm..
just from my experience. i not sure it is accurate or not. but that's what i feel.

that after recable, the driver moves differently after recable. which it reproduce the deeper bass part.
but
eventually after longer time, both sounds no different to my ear.
at first, with stock cable. say it burn in as midbass- mid - midtreble -treble more. then after recable, it still need sometime to let the driver to fully perform as there are some region that it doesn't produce sound before. like lower bass, or higher extention.
regarding the micro detail, it only will shows up after the driver is fully burn in and the driver is well intergrated with the new cable.

but eventually after the driver is loosen up. it don't really shows a very very different, unless the user is using it to hear some vocal song only.  then it will sound very much different with a unit that the user hears all variety of song.
Above statement, is just my point of view.

some headphones, like grado.
when before run in, the bass is seriously tight, and treble is hot.
so when i recable it, it opens up even more treble. which as result it make the sound much more harsh than stock cable.
that's why i recommend grado user to burn in the headphone good enough before recable.

but ksc75. brand new recable already can shows improvement in the sound. hence i do it.

thx 4 d info.. that clears a lot of anxiety.. biggrin.gif

headband mod.. is not really a mod.. just plug it into a headband with similar mount.
theres quite some people who did that.. im not really sure what headband they use tho...

there's one forumer here.. (sry i forgot who) adds headband + foams on the ksc75.. turns it into normal headphone.. a pretty much maxed out setup with ipod+lod+ibasso.. er.. d2? dunno...
very nice sounding..

yes
it might has chances of the driver faulty.
can't gurantee it will 100% work after recable.
i have a list of who submitted their ksc75 to me. and i was making it according to the list.
regarding about a list for those who interested to do recable. i seirously don't think so.
because previously there's some fella telling me they so wanted to recable. and i was very busy in study.
then when i purposely cleared my time for them, they tell me... this month cannot.. i spend my money bought iphone, too bad you didn't tell me last week,too bad now only i see your PM... ect ect.

so forget about it. those who are serious, they will stick to this thread about the update for the recabling.

in my opinion
i seriously think that it's not W1 that blurred the sound.
it's the sansa.
i heard sansa of deamon when he came my house..
imho....... u better sell both W1 / sansa. then go buy gumstick.............
seriously
i think that's one of the best ksc75 sound to my ear..
direct push of gumstick to ksc75.
*
I would have to agree on this statement.. thumbup.gif
i havent touched my fuze for awhile.. laugh.gif
i would want to try the rockbox'd clip+ tho.. just for tweaking fun...

as for w1.. those it worked with.. is quite nice.. eg, eterna, se777.. but those it doesnt.. sounds wierd..
that's y i got the hippo amp.. more neutral and 'umph' on the mids.

last time i oso used to have this kind of thinking. things only come, but never sell. i sayang my stuff so i don't sell it away. but eventually when i move higher. wah tak tahan. too expensive to keep that much. and in the end i keep buy, sell , buy sell, and finally all the things that i really keep. are those that i really really really like it.

else there's sometime i ended have more than 30 headphone on my hand. LOL.

30.. sweat.gif
