I guess it would technically be me as mine actually adjusts due to suspension from the hair ties.

 

All the others seem to be more of a support type mod since they aren't suspended and aren't adjustable.

Hey...if it were about looks then we would all have LCD-2's.

 

If mine looked worse than they do, I really wouldn't care as they sound amazing to me.

I like the R10 a bit better :)

 

On another note I added the acoustic foam kinda (I didn't take the paper off the other side since I haven't covered the bass vents yet) but it does sound a bit better. I'm just waiting on my O2 pads mostly :P

I'm really curious how mine would sound with O2 pads.

 

Yes...I'm still trying to avoiding spending money......

That's the truth!

 

Head-Fi eats large portions of my wallet on almost a daily basis I feel like...I just feel bad for all the people who actually go out and buy amps for retail price!  That's gotta hurt.  DIY is the only way to go for me.  Incredible sound quality at a tiny fraction of the price.

 

EDIT: Any idea what mrspeakers final mods are going to be?
