I agree 100% with this sentiment. I left my D2000's alone until they had over 600hrs, and really liked them as is. But the MarkL mods are cheap if you DIY and completely reversible, so I decided to try them. I did the partial mods and I really liked the change in bass, a noticable tightning. Its still there but its more under control now. This gives the cans a better balance overall and improves the imaging.
I also just recently made a cheap replacement cable from Mogami mini star quad, due mostly to needing a slightly longer cable than stock. I was quite surprised that I could clearly hear an improvement in the high frequencies, a little smoother and more detailed. My wife even noticed the change. I was so excited by this I might try making another style cable just to compare the results.
My point is to not be afraid to experiment with mods, let your ears be your guide, just make sure you can undo the mod if you don't like it.

I think the Denon's synergize very well with the A-GD gear, and overall I think they are really nice closed cans. For now, I'm just letting the Denon's mature and I'm enjoying the ride... |
