Dude the amount of views you have on your videos is CRIMINALLY underrated, I love your content. It kinda feels like I'm watching the Adam Savage of headphones!
I like the pace of your video your not fucking around or stroking your self off like all the other youtubers. You come up with an idea and you build it no bull shit good shit man good shit
not sure if it applies here, but I've seen keyboard enthusiasts put tape or rubber between the layers of the body construction to reduce the 'ping' caused by imperfections in the fit. it shouldn't be a problem if you have the mounting bolts all around, but it makes up for any gaps if you have them and damps resonance slightly. They call it the 'force break' mod. It's usually only used on keyboards withe full aluminum construction so plastic should be mostly immune. I wonder how full metal CNC headphones would feel?
Gaskets! I use them on some designs, either printed in TPU (flexible filament) or laser-cut from foam or rubber. I'll make a video where I show that. Thanks!
I loved the video, But I really wanted to hear how they sound, or hear your personal feedback on how they sound in relation to the design choices. A comparison between this design and the same design but non horned closed back would be cool too
Absolutely love your builds so much! Wondering, could those same drivers be used for building a flat and detailed headphone for say mixing? I like to do mixing as a fun side thing, and while their are "mixing" headphones, the thought of DIY-ing some kinda seems fun to me. Looking forward to whatever you build next!!
Have you ever used any other methods other than 3d printing? I think it would be cool to see normal wooden headphones but with a wood like purple wood or a different material like metal. Also it would be cool to have you rank your own builds.
Omg i just looked at your channel my interest of the week seems to be your interest of the month cool to see a genuine good youtube and it blows my mind your just starting off amazing what a little bit of intelligence can do wish there was more people with brains on this platform thank you for the video and for starting this channel!
Absolutely loved the vid! I think people would really love it if you could talk about how the unique design of your headphone make a difference. Given that the big selling point of this design was the transmission line, I would've been so curious to hear how that affects your audio experience, if it all.
Bruh is explaining technical concepts like a boss, then decides he is going to explain the end of a wire(pigtail), suddenly thought i was watching Bob the builder 😂 @3:05
Man I remember seeing your headphones in reddit and I wondered how you even came up with these ideas... Watching you make them is so damn fun too.... Can't wait to see more of your work
this may be an overly ambitious idea, but hear me out... the trinity: in ear, on ear, and over ear. three headphones in one, truly divine! could also add bone conduction while you're at it.
I like some good bass. A bass boost up to around 120-150Hz is great for me. I can tolerate up to a 20dB bass boost in the sub-bass and lower bass shelf with minimal compensation in the treble region. This is because I'm extremely treble sensitive, so I legitimately prefer headphones with very minimal treble compensation. I'll definitely need to go through the rest of your videos to see if you have any videos about using some of the more esoteric drivers I've seen on AliExpress over the years. I've always wondered how viable they actually are and how much you need to tune them with tuning papers and tuning networks. Because there are sellers on there who will happily sell you some insane 70mm drivers with wild curves.
From the intro, thought you were going to make it spiral on the inside. But then, i was thinking - how would you fill that? Wait... How about something like that next? Like a RAM's horn! Go full Baphomet. lol
could you replace the drivers with IEMs or ither tiny drivers, in the point of the horn, using the horn shape as a natural passive amplifier a mega(head)phone.
I forgot about the thumbnail so after you explained the example speakers I honestly expected you to take the spiral shell design and turn it into a spiral ram horn rather than a curvy devil horn. Still, great video as always!
I'm sorry to say, but when you say the B&W uses a transmission line enclosure. alright, but what you made was just a "normal" sealed enclosure. a transmission line enclosure is in simple terms just a long ass freaking port as the enclosure. the geometry of your "enclosure" can be argued to minimize standing waves inside. the enclosure volume would had to be designed from the parameters of this exact driver used, it seemed as you just went straight into drawing an enclosure. the small "venting" you mentioned at around 2:42 is not gonna do anything at all. if you did really design the volume for the driver, it would have been nice for you to have shown the progress, also if you made the enclosure a given volume, by stuffing it like this you increase the acoustical volume of the enclosure, therefore it acts as if the enclosure is larger than it is. this will also have to be accounted for :D The "neutral" target shown is not neutral, it is the harman curve, wich is a curve for the average "most prefered" frequency response. also when you mention you reduce the bass of your headphones and it gives it more clarity, well what you are technicly describing is distortion on the bass, wich makes the mids and high sound horrible for that matter, so when you reduce the low frequency output, you also reduce the distortion, while maintaining the mid-high frequency response also makes them more prominent when listening hence giving the perceived more clarity. but other than that, great video and amazing concept. they look very interresting, and heavy :D but this is what you have to do if you wanna look like the devil himself :D
Interesting points. I agree I could have mathed out the volume more carefully. I don’t agree that venting a closed back headphone has no effect - it typically increases sub bass (I think by relieving some pressure inside the ear cup so the driver can move more freely). And the reason I find that decreased bass increases the perception of “clarity” in my case is mainly because upper-bass can muddy the sound of the entire headphone, and it’s hard (but not impossible) to increase sub bass without increasing mid bass. So just chopping bass altogether usually does the job (similar to a Sennheiser HD600). Thank you for your comment and please let me know what you think of my other (and future) headphone builds. Thank you!
@@pudphones if you'd like more low end extension, you would need to make it either an actual transmissionline, or a bass reflex, they can look the same but they are not. but given the final response i don't think a vented enclosure would fit, however an open back headphone like the hd600 i think could do wonders with you'r target response, if you want to keep a closed back (sealed enclosure) you would likely need a dsp to lower and even out the response for you'r liking, preferably never boost any frequency since it will only increase distortion levels aswell. and i will 100% check out some of your other videos :D this video of it self just seemed very interresting to me, looking forward to seeing more :D
Wow. I just have to comment. There is literally no freaking way to make headphones sound like floor speakers. The experience is entirely different. There's literally no freaking way to do it. You'd have to find someone who has never had the experience of a floor standing speaker setup. "I made headphones inspired by $100,000 speakers."? No. Absolutely not. That is a truly astounding lie. Headphones just absolutely can not draw the same amount of power to make the same sound impressions. Bass, treble, surround sound effect, etc. All of it is lacking in headphones/soundbars, etc. Let's put it this way. If I would try your headphones and completely sell off my sound system (of thousands of dollars) so that all I do is plug your headphones into my computer and it's better than my current setup, then I'd eat my own testicles. With a smile. And on national television. CNN. I'd pay for the spot out of my own money. Not joking. Let's put it to the test? Come on. Try me. That's how much I want to prove that you're a jackass liar. If what your title claims is true, then you just destroyed the entirety of home audio. And you didn't. You can't with headphones. It's literally fffffffff impossible. I mean... seriously, if your headphones can produce the bass experience of a $3000 subwoofer... how are you not rich???? What about Dolby Atmos? DTS:X? Let me guess... you don't pay for the DTS do you? Much like 90% of every vendor. Maybe you even didn't pay for the Dolby support... much like a lot of vendors over the past 10 years. So... how, exactly, are you a $100,000 equivalent? Speakers ARE NOT the be all end all of the equation for sound quality. You need an receiver/amplifier that supports what you want to hear. If all you care about is stereo sound, and a mimic of surround sound, then your setup may be good for $100-$200. Good on you.
You make excellent points. I too have never heard a headphone that sounds like great speakers. But I’ve also never heard speakers that sound like a great headphones. I’ve had incredible experiences with both, though vastly different experiences. I’ve built 5.1 headphones and even a subwoofer (for headphones) that you wear on your chest - which is an entirely different category of audio experience. I hope to do a video on those soon. Thank you for your comment!

I don't know if you shaped the horns the way you did for some acoustic reason, but you should have modeled them after Tim the Enchanter IMO

Send them to DMS/Headphone show
