i might have to do that, tho $450 in total, (more if i have to send them about) is alot of money, especially seeing as i may have to buy an amp also around the same price! if i did that option i bet i wouldnt get them modded!, its like £100 more! and i live in the uk!

and from the sounds of it, people prefer the pico, and i will only be getting one that a definite. i kind like highs, i use the tf10s with silicon tips cause the foam tips lost too much hi range

one thing, they are still effective as portables after the mod arent they? if not then thats out the window.

oh yeah, i think i will wait until i get an amp before selling the d2000s, i dare not mod them, i dont understyand headphones that much!
