I am utterly confused by the design decisions made by Sennheiser...   So the 2.5mm jack - Does it connect to the inbuilt microphone or not?   They supply a 4 pole to 3 pole (2.5 to 3.5mm) adapter which just doesnt make sense. Why didnt they just make the other end 4 pole as well - unless the...

The socket just looks so large ;D. And about the male plug - i prefer Neutrik stuff but since i don't know anything about vermouth I'd say give it a shot. It will work I guess ;)   @jadawgis - thanks for pointing that out - but I've seen a few people wanting to get rid of their m50s and I...

Heya - it's me uploading a few pictures of different angles of the ATH-m50s being opened up and exposed ;) I hope they help

Did anybody feel like he was losing some sound quality after the mod? I'm not sure.   I think mine sound better now ;D - Might be the DT 250 earpads as well though.   But what I'd really like to know is how much impact the chosen solder has on the sound quality - i suspect next to none ?

Heya - I just registered after doing the mod.   I did a few little things differently - here's a short summary:   Tools used: - Dremel (Proxxon), - Soldering Iron, - Glue Gun, - Solder (60% Sn, 38% Pb, 2% Cu), - KBL 4 (Lumberg), - Knives!   Basically the only things i did differently...
