I have the exact same mod as oqvist since I bought my pair from the guy who modded his headphones :)   ( Yes, that means he experimented on my headphones.. ;) )   I bought them modded and was curious hearing them without the damping, so I removed it.   I tried to listen to them for...

This should be interesting ^^
