NEW Hifiman HE400se 2024 mods fitment guide and testing

[@johnjohn5122]

These are my go to cans, with the super grills and a beautifully made balanced cable i have found a whole new appreciation of tracks i have listened to many times, i use them with a Zen Dac 2 or a Hip Dac 2 both if which drive them with ease.

[@CustomCans]

Thanks for the feedback - Really glad you like them

[@katchou1337]

have not been here for a while :x and im sad... today broke a solder point on an custom cable i bought from u, a few (3-4) years ago :o it had an 2,5 plug (that broke)... but... ^^ its like an opportunity... my new amp has only 3.5 and 4.4 xD so I ordered instantly some 4.4 plugs to swap ^^

[@Bushviking]

lol, I laughed out loud when you slapped on the closed-back cap on the Ed XS. Loved the modded grills, keep up the good work!

[@CustomCans]

Thanks 👍

[@truckerallikatuk]

Just got my strap, love it. Matches the supergrills I got last year. Wonderful.

[@CustomCans]

Glad you like it

[@stopmotionjj3609]

You should try some modding on the fiio jt1, they have a lot of room and potential. Love the channel

[@CustomCans]

Thanks - unfortunately we are booked up with projects at the moment but I will add it to the list to suggest in the future

[@wildekek]

I'd happily pay you a few quid for an STL file of the Hifiman Comfort Headband Strap so I can print it myself with TPU.

[@CustomCans]

That is not something I had though of. I have one of our printers loaded up with TPU at the moment so will give it a go and let you know. I don't have it as a 3D file at the moment but should be easy enough to whip up

[@hartyewh1]

HE400se is $79 on Aliexpress at the moment so crazy value. The stealth version is about $100.

[@CustomCans]

That is crazy value

[@Gamingreviews115]

Prototype with variable bass released soon? Thank you

[@Gamingreviews115]

Any update on the prototype mod for he400se you posted a while ago, can control the bass open or closed with a dial? Thank you

[@mideff96]

Would you recommend installing these mods in the HE400i 2020?

[@CustomCans]

Yes it works well on those too

[@bastisk8]

Have the Super Grills been updated or are they still the same as in the last videos? Not sure if mine already have that cutout to remove them.

[@CustomCans]

There have just been some small tweaks to the design - the main one being how the clips work. I think your's should have the little cutout to remove them, if is a small 3mm wide hole off centre near the bottom of the grille.

[@bastisk8]

@@CustomCans Ah, ok - I bought the STL files last year. If I download them again from your website, will these then be the updated versions or the old STL-files that I initially purchased? Edit: Just checked - redownloaded them and got the STL-files with the updated clip design. Awesome!

[@CustomCans]

@@bastisk8 Yes, if you re-download it now it will be the updated design

[@iamwoteveriwanttobe]

About to watch the video and before I forget to ask, have I missed another giveaway draw? It's for the Truefree 01 from a few months back. I checked the shorts also but can't see anything.

[@CustomCans]

Yes they went out to the winner already

[@iamwoteveriwanttobe]

@@CustomCans I'm pretty sure I watched all your main videos and checked the shorts which I often miss but saw nothing. Where was the draw if I may ask? Great idea to have an open pair of headphones that you can convert to closed-back. I'm assuming the sound signatures will be different but that's a good thing (for variety) as long as it still sounds great.

[@CustomCans]

Yes - I don't think Sylvia did a video for draw - she just commented on the winners comment letting them know they had won

[@elliotkubath670]

@@CustomCans bought Supergrills from you about a month ago. Is this new version much different? Worth getting too?

[@CustomCans]

@elliotkubath670 No they should sound the same, Just tweaked a few things like re-designing the clips to make them less prone to breaking off during install and some other small changes to make them easier for people to print
