  1. Happy to report that Sennheisers HME26 600ohms work well with Nova using Audio Hi cables (Left tip Right ring). The rest goes to the sleeve. Same for the mic cable, using Audio Hi for tip. Gain for slate mic needs to be all the way up in the Nova but level is just fine. I compared side by side HME26 600ohm vs HD26 100 ohms and I think there's something around 3-5db level difference between them but the Nova's HP out can handle it perfectly well. I feel HME26s are a tini bit less brighter than HD26, like high freqs aren't as crisp as the 26s, I guess it could be due to the Ohms difference. Also for the record "cable 7" of the optional cables for the Sennheiser HMEs/HDs is made of steel which makes it more resistant but also more stiff and worst of all much prone to get cable noise thru movement and wiggle, the transmission thru the cable to the ear cup is quite noticeable so I would not reccomend it for bag work. Leaving here this for the record
  2. Great responses here thank you everyone. I did wired my HME26s using the Audio Hi cables (there are Audio Hi and Audio Lo wiring options) and the results are encouraging. Haven't notices any big difference in freq response. Maybe something around 5dB lower than regular 100ohm HD26s. I haven't tested it thoroughly but it doesn't look bad.
  3. Is there anyone who's using 600 ohm headset with a Zaxcom recorder? I'm thinking on getting some 2nd hand but unused Sennheiser HME26 but they are the 600ohm version and now I'm realising I've always used my Zaxcom Nova with 100ohms HD26s. Will the headphone out of the recorder be ok with that extra impedance...? Anyone used those before on a Zax recorder? Thank you
  4. Hi @Hugh Palmer, So just to be clear your test has been done with a A10 Receiver and a 1010 Tx, is that correct? Thanks
  5. Great review Rado, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
