Beautiful work, I'm in love. OP, would you mind sharing your opinion on the impact of different mods on the original cups?

I look forward to your impressions when you receive the Burson HA-160

Well - IMHO, the most effective mod on the original T50rp, is the plasticine on the inside of the baffle and cup. After that it is tuning the bass ports. IMO the worst mod is the craft felt covering the whole backside of the driver - I don't like that sound at all. Covering the back side with felt removes too much of the bass and treble - hence the hole and the craft felt behind the hole in the KODA^2. The removal of the mesh on the ear side of the driver doesn't do much at all.
 
Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Placing the driver in a ressonance free cabinet and massive baffle with airtight gaskets does give a even bigger impact, but in other areas.

I have started planning on 5 more sets of the KODA^2 - probably all with Macassar veneer. Will I make more than that? Depends on the response and reviews.

Have you sent a pair out for reviews/measurements yet?

Play-doh dries out - plasticine remains flexible when exposed to air - but similar.

Sweet design.

 

[lokesen]

Yes - Tyll is first stop.
 
Any suggestions where it goes from there? 
 
I think the last stop is going to be LFF - our fellow head-fi'er. He has promised to make a in-depth review and keep the set to bring along to meetings for others to try. But this isn't decided just yet.
