Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Appreciation Thread

I think there's already a thread on this, but I don't think there are any mods. I don't know what you would want to mod on them though.

I just bought the Custom One Pros and the headband really looks like it would be easy to modify. I was thinking of sewing some 1/4 inch memory foam into glove leather or suede then attach some velcro. It seems like a pretty easy thing to do. Hopefully Beyerdynamic will release some memory foam earcups. They really are the best for long term listening sessions and good seal.

All I have done so far is change the pads to the much more comfortable DT770 velour pads (in silver/gray, though I would have preferred the black but you have to specially order them in the UK).  I have also changed the cable to that from the V moda m80, which if not improving the sound does make it slightly louder.  Apparently a decent cable will dramatically help with the sound.

They are ok, very disappointing to begin with but improve tremendously with a long burn in.  The big thing with these phones are that they are bass heavy.  You get 4 different bass settings, generally I only use 2 and 3 for most of my listening.  The mids are a little withdrawn.  The highs are ok.  The sound stage takes quite some time to open up but when it does, it sounds quite good.  The sound isn't quite as detailed as some other headphones but I found the sound quite warm and nice.  I am not sure that these headphone would suit all kinds of listening.  for classical and pop, I much prefer the v moda m80 but for trance, which I listen to quite a bit.  I prefer the COPs, as I am not a big fan of too much upper mid.

They are a good sounding headphone better than most other fashion headphone, with the exception in some ways of the m80, though the sound is very different between them

Hello, I am considering getting some Custom One Pros and wondered if anyone was able to find out where to get all the replacement parts.  Especially the piece that bolts on the side.  I would love to get one in silver with silver bolts.  I have a plan to create a wood and silver look.  I have done it in photoshop here with a koa laminate that could easily be applied to an existing ear plate.
