    Variable Openmod, Fully Open Source Headphones, Designed for comfort and modularity.

    Variable Openmod This is a fully open source headphones designed to be easy to assemble and easy to print out. It is also made to be highly modular, capable of using most 40-52mm drivers. The overall design itself is also made to be easy to modify for different earcups and whatnot. The headband...

    Static Vanish, 3D printed Headset/Gaming Headphones

    Static Vanish It's entirely 3D printed. Only the electronics inside are not made by me. Build and Assembly Designing this thing was just extremely difficult. For just one reason only. Getting a cable from one earcup to another. You have to make it so it doesn't break easily, doesn't affect the...

    Designing a new headband for the Heddphone 1. Also with adjustable clamping force.

    It's because PETG is flexible, that's why I use it. It's flexible enough to work as a headband, but stiff enough to work as the main chassis as the earcups. Also doesn't require an enclosure.

    Designing a new headband for the Heddphone 1. Also with adjustable clamping force.

    I got a commission to make a new headband for the Heddphones. The Heddphone has a pretty bad headband. It's too small and just uncomfortable. My current headband design had a lighter clamp and was designed for my own headphones, which weigh as much or maybe even less than a single Heddphone...

    Heddphone 1 Teardown and Thoughts on Build Quality

    So, I got a commission to mod the Heddphone with a new headband. I took the challenge and well, it required me to take apart the earcups. I couldn't find really anything on how to take apart the Heddphones so I decided to document a bit of the teardown. The headband itself won't be taken apart...

    Sliding Folding Headphones, a folding mechanism not seen anywhere else.

    The aim of this sliding folding design is to create something compact while still having a limited yoke movement so there aren't any floppy earcups, which means the yoke has to stand vertically upwards in what is basically the standard position on a normal headphone. This is the goal: Going...

    Here are some pictures comparing the designs: From left to right: Static Oval, Mk1, Mk2, Mk3, Mk4 Nearfields Static Oval: This is a more conventional design. I had to get the basics down when designing headphones so this was made. Minor iterations have been made to it already such as...

    Onkyo A800. The last headphones Onkyo ever made before going bankrupt in 2022. Pretty unique pair of headphones. While somewhat heavy, the large headband helps distribute the weight quite well. Sound wise it's pretty good. Works fine and in excellent condition. Includes: Headphones...
