    Who has one and a CTX ?

    Can someone who has the EQ and the CTX confirm if the headphone tread is the same on both machines or not. Ie an M12 I know it won't work as it needs a 3.5mm jack internally. I am going to make an adapter but want to know about the tread on the body so I can order the parts. thanks
