Default Introducing Lawton Audio-- Denon Mods, Re-Cables, Woodies & More.

Introducing Lawton Audio-- World-Class Headphones and More

Greetings,
We are pleased to announce the launch of our new website, www.lawtonaudio.com

Formerly "markl Mods", we are now an international team of headphone enthusiasts united in the quest to provide a superior listening experience for headphone fanatics world-wide. We invite you to investigate our expanded menu of products, services, and upgrades for your headphones (that will only continue to grow, so keep checking back with us).

Lawton Audio has a solution for every headphone audiophile and music-lover on any budget:

We offer several lines of modified Denon headphones that we feel out-perform any other headphone in their class; in fact we believe some of our top cans will rival any headphone ever made.

We also have a headphone re-cabling service, and will replace the stock cable of your favorite headphone with the best wire we have found, the Jena Labs Ultra Wire. We top it off with the supreme Furutech jacks, the finest available. Prepare to be amazed!

We have designed a brand new line of custom wooden cups for the Denon AH-D2000. Hand-turned by master craftsmen from exotic woods, not only are they incredibly beautiful, our new design increases the width and depth of the soundstage and improves tone over the stock plastic cups.

We also have obtained one of only five of Denon's new AH-D7000 flagship headphones in North America. We have deconstructed them and reviewed them in great detail on our new website, so check us out for the inside scoop you can't get anywhere esle on these phones.

We look forward to providing you with a truly upgraded headphone listening experience!

Nice site.
The first time I looked the pictures were over the text, but It looks a lot better now.
I'll get you a picture of the recabled KH-K1000, they are really great.

Love the site Mark...my wallet is not so happy though!

Folks...Mark is a fantastic guy to work with...I highly recommend his cabling work and his mods make a significant improvement to the stock 5000's.

The pictures were over the text if you are using Google Chrome but it's alright with firefox. Maybe it's just me

and nice site!

The site looks great Mark. I look forward to reading your impressions of the modded and recabelled D7000s vs the fully modded D5000s.

You managed to turn the mediocre D5000s into something truly special. And I expect you'll get the D7000s sounding even better.

Congratulations and good luck!

Damn! Those D2000 cups look stunningly attractive!

Resistance is futile.
