Nice! I might try that. No knifer would backstab me next time, I hope. Darn players with Ninja perk... I can't see them with my heartbeat sensor!

Can't say the same for the T1 as I was the first to get it in Canada! It was impossible to get it any sooner!

HFI-780 hands down.

Overhyped definitely.

The ALO mod must be a HUGE improvement then. My ALO-780 are the best cans I have heard. Prefer them over my HF-2 right now.

I dunno if I believe in cables though. With the amount of flaws I hear in my pair it would take a cable miracle to make them sound substantially better to my ears.

Just like the stock Denon D2000, the cable is rubbish. A good cable is going to make a difference. Also, the ALO mod is also internal modding, not just a recable.

No idea tbh I would imagine dampening of the drivers or housing.

Where do you get the cash to do stuff like that?

I'm also 15, so if you shared your insight I would appreciate it.
