This one actually interests me since it is much more than a small change.

Thx guys.  There are still a few minor nit picks I want to iron out.  The good news is I think there is still a bit more room for improvement and refinement.  The bad news is I'm considering bringing this a commercial as a kit w/ three selectable levels for user preference.  So further pics and templates will likely be withheld to the general public.  There will be accommodations made for Ye Pirates of course!

Very cool.  I may re-buy one to try this, the brightness/glare was just too much for regular use.

No qualms with the move to make this a commercial venture. A lot of time has obviously gone into it and you guys did share findings and mods prior to this iteration. Let us know when the kits are good to go, I'll be a guinea pig.


edit: please do not call the final product "Rabid Dawg".

I designed this: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?1bzm4uj16v4bb2y  for an HD800 owner a while ago but never received feedback if it works or not.
Don't own one, so cannot try it myself.

Anybody willing to try it ?

By the looks of the results of the Analixus mods (= rabid dawg ?) I personally would prefer that solution over the filter circuit that must go between a source and HP amp.

Obviously, this had to come up at some point, you americans :&  :)p13

Looks fantastic though, I could not dream of doing such cleaning using only simulation! Hats of to you guys.

What..  is..  this...

Staring at the decay plot..   I can almost see Jesus smiling back at me...

This should be called HD800 - Savior's Edition.
