When I purchased my HD800s in 2009, I had them shipped directly to Stefan AudioArt, where they were hardwired with balanced VOICE cables and XLR connectors.
They are currently being modified with the Endorphin Balanced Hardwired Cable and HD800 Ultra-Modification.
Stefan AudioArt came highly recommended when I auditioned headphones and amplifiers at RMAF. In a recent email correspondance regarding the Crayon CHA-1, Frederick Crane at Stereodesk commented on the above modifications with "That's my favorite HD800 recipe!"
I can heartily approve of these mods (hardwired, endorphin, with their mod) for the 800.
I would described the results as transformative.
