Grado GS1000 Toiletpants Mod
« on: March 07, 2013, 05:36:46 AM »
Before I invented the pre-RMA LCD3 Toiletpants, I invented the Grado GS1000 Toiletpants.



Blue = Stock
Green = GS1000 Toiletpants

Yes. I was NOT kidding when I said I used 2-ply Kirkland Toiletpaper to cover the GS1000 drivers. This was before I had set up my measurement rig.

Nothing like toilet paper to clean up shit. I use it on a bunch of headphones as well.

Do you think there may be an acoustic leak from the jack hole? ~Tyll Hertsens

Not sure if I like stuffing one hole or both holes. Tending toward one hole since both holes seems kinda ghey ~Purrin
