Capacitor Leads

Do you think the fix will have much effect on headphones? Please could you post back your impressions of using this with your headphones Grainger.

Headphones can be somewhat bass-heavy, so I wouldn't expect the BSC aspect to be all that desirable.  On the other hand, there are those cans that roll off a lot on the top end, and being able to bump that up a bit could be nice.

Thanks Paul

Jamie,

I use the Fix with my Orca/Dungeness speakers.  I don't listen to headphones.  Well, not since some time in the 1990s.

Yep, I had my posters muddled up it was the post by boulos on using headphones with the sex sorry for confusion I have edited my previous post.

Hi Jamie,
I have the ATH-AD700 headphones.  People seem to agree that these are light on bass, and definitely the BSC made a very audible difference. The lower registers are much more apparent, and the spectrum was filled.  The same levels I used for my speakers worked best here (narrowest baffle, 4db).  I had a much harder time discerning differences with the treble compensation.  I ended up setting it at 20kHz, 4dB.  At this setting, I could hear the ringing in the higher notes (e.g. classical guitar harmonics), but it's very subtle.  I hope this is a reasonable description.

Thanks that is good to know that there is an audible difference on with headphone I was thinking it would be interesting tweaking and seeing what effects can be discerned to suit individual phones and tastes I quiet like the idea of being able to apply a little fine tuning if needed.
