    This looks really promising! Can't wait to hear your sound impression and measurements of these!

    • @CustomCans

      Yes - I hope there is a noticeable improvement

      @@CustomCans I've thought a lot about the spacer and it looks very similiar to a horn waveguide. If the distance is 1.2cm from the membrane up to the end of the spacer it could act as a horn. A horn works need to be atleast 1/4 of the length of the lowest wavelength. I entered 0.012cm into some online frequency calculators and the spacer might boost some higher frequencies in the audible range. So I'm really looking to se the measurements :) This is way outside my skill level so it might not be a concern. But if it does I guess the solution would be to make the spacer shallower so the boost only occurs outside 20kHz :)

      Yes I had thought about that but then factoring in the interaction with the earpad I have no idea so a bit of physical testing and tweaking will need to be done. It would be nice if I could get a small boost around 18khz where they have a dip naturally but as I said... I will have to wait and see. I have been doing some final tweaks to the design and the new prototypes are on the printer so hopefully tomorrow I will get to make some frequency plots and see where I am at

    Awesome! Thank you!
    I personally like more of the look of the "connector bump" on the black proto at 1:11. It looks more like a flowing design, and less bulky than the one on the white.

    • @CustomCans
      @CustomCans  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the feedback - the connectors I am using are quite chunky so would not fit in those but I will be designing a couple of different versions - smaller connectors like 3.5mm jacks would work with the smaller connector bump

    I would like to know if its possible to include some kind of locking mechanism on the outside, so you can get an extra cup to convert these to a closed headphone. otherwise something to hold a thin layer of foam between headphone cup and earpad. Love these and will buy one pair if you offer it :)

    • @CustomCans
      @CustomCans  3 роки тому +1

      I think a piece of foam could be fitted to these but I will check - and yes, once I get this version finished off I can try to design a closed backed version

    Thank you for the video and your work! it looks very promising! There is still one more question in these headphones. The headband of the Arc presses on the upper point of the head. If you can do something about it, it will be the perfect headphones! Good luck!

    nice design 🥰 but what about the original hifiman headband, does it fit?

    • @CustomCans
      @CustomCans  3 роки тому +3

      Sorry yes I forgot to mention, the original headband will fit and I will see if I can design a version that takes the same sockets so you can reuse the sockets and cables

    Any opinion on the alliexpress headband? How it compares with the original? I think that the stock headband is horrible after some minutes.

    Wicked design, would love to use it though not sure I'd be comfortable having the drivers exposed like that - any chance a thin piece of fabric like the one that came with the headphones would fit between the magnets and the enclosure? Cheers, very much enjoying following this project.

      I mean i have no idea what your guy would charge, but considering what people are willing to pay to express their individuality over customizing their possessions, this is a no-brainer really.
      and sorry if that came across a wee bit cynical ;)
