The mod can fully reverse without any issues. I did not have clamp issue with my AD2000 but I have to bend the headband on my W5000. I did try reverse the mod with my W5000 and only bend it back in a week.

The headband on W5000 and AD2000 is almost the exact the same.

I recommend you keep the AD2000 for classical music, I do prefer AD2000 on classical and live music over ESW10JPN. But on rock, pop, and hip hop, ESW10JPN kick *****.

hmmmm ,then I have to balance what I prefer, classical or pop.
By the way, can you describe the feel of wearing ESW10 to me?
Is it comfort or intolerably hurt?

It is very comfortable to me with both. The ESW10 sit on your ear while AD2000 around your ear, to me I prefer the AD2000.

The problem is that I don't have that much budget. Have to sell AD2000 for the ESW10. Is this worth? A reason I want to have ESW10JPN is that I don't have any portable headphone or earphone right now( except a fake AKG K324P with a boomy bass). I want to have a good portable one. But as you can see in this thread, the AD2000 is much better in every ways ( or almost). Without any compare to other headphones( cause I have AD2000 as the first), I am so fascinated in its enormous image and its dynamic. The feels of drum are very, very fantastic. But, yes, AD2000 has something that bother me. It is that 'clamp'. I am so hurted. So pain !! for long listening. I had ES7 before and it still hurt my ear. Does the ESW10JPN suit me? And does it hurt me a lot? Compare to the AD2000. I mainly listen to classical( orchestral and piano solo) and pop and some pop-rocks. Thank you!

I had the AD2000 with Cardas cable and ESW10 at the same time, and sold the AD2000 because I prefer the sound of the ESW10 a little more. I posted about it in another users thread reviewing the two. It took me about 2 days to get used to the supra-aural pad pressure and now they are very cozy. After a while I decided I liked the ESW10 more than my Edition 9 and sold those two. As for closed cans, my LA7000 beat them (or the R10 I can't afford) but these are still very nice.
