Ahoy! I'm happy to see you here :)

Maybe you're looking at buying a DIY kit from Ploopy, or just interested to know how these headphones are built but thanks for coming regardless!

The guide I am following (and you should follow if you're building these) begins here:

I recommend you read through this Ploopy build guide thoroughly before attempting a build, as there are a lot of small details to pay attention to.

Also, feel free to check out Tom Armstrong's build notes and guide, which has some useful info in it as well:

I've had a great time building these, and hope you do as well.

Feel free to comment with any questions. I'm not an expert, but do work with audio on a regular basis (and built these, heh), so hopefully I can answer some of your questions. This is only a build guide, not a review or test (though they do sound very nice after some minor tweaks!).

Chapters:

13:40 - Part 3: Ear Cups

Would love to see another version but electrostatic, because they seem like the most audio quality bang for the DIY buck. I've even made some with graphite powder, kitchen cling wrap, speaker mesh metal grilles and cardboard spacers, then used a bug zapper for bias and transformer from an audio amplifier for the signal to em.. pretty crude and could be impriloved vastly with kit parts

I never thought that the flexible pcb can be suspended with the pink foam.
Now I'm curious about the sound 😊

Nice video thank you.

Interesting point, they have magnets only on one side, despite the Fostex having magnets on 2 sides for example.🤔
If someone got a technical explanation on this point..?

Furthermore, these cans look a little bit pricey to me…
120$ for DIY kit 😮..!?!

I bought my Fostex t20rp mk m3 for 100 bucks. And they are quite still DIYable too.

Anyway your video is great 👍
