I know it's a stellar match for the Z7, and was thinking it would be a similar combo with the Z1R Thanks for the heads up! :D

The Z7 really starts to open up with a few hundred hours on them. And more so running balanced. And again to a nother level with Mods. :D

This man gets it! :beyersmile: Often overlooked and miss understood, When you take the time to brush off the dusty of bias.. you might find a gem of epic proportion. :rolleyes: But please don't tell anyone. Until I can procure a few more Z7's I'm serious about that too. :D

  Thanks!   No worries, take your time. If you are already quite satisfied with the sound then I'd suggest skipping this mod. Curiosity got the better of me, so I did the Filter Mod. x-D   I'm glad I did thought because it allowed me to tune the sound just a little bit more to my liking...

You are welcome. I'll try and update the Micro pictures later with some different materiel options.   Sorry for spamming the H3LL out of the thread.   I got carried away on the  "how to"    

Making Filters   This part is important only if you want to learn more about the filters and how to make perfect circles   Otherwise just grab some scissors and cut out what ever shape you want.     I'm 95% certain the stock filter is made out of Tyvek Paper Just like the stuff used...

  Thanks and very good point, someone could Tape off the area around the the cut location using layers of thick tape for thine cardboard exe.   Yeah If anyone chooses to do this mod, Do it how ever works best for you.   I'm just throwing out ideas and how I went about doing i so you can  ...

  Don't start on it yet.   The sound can be reversible, but the Netting over the Z7 can only be repaired.   Let me make a few how too Images to give you an Idea of the rout I took so you can decide what is best options for you.   Like Whitigir has said repeatedly, do this mod if you have...

I'm really enjoying it. :) It's brighter with a little more sparkle to treble. Slight improvement to sound staging with a little more air to the feel of it. Vocals seemed to have smoothed out a even more. Vocals more forward. Slightly improved bass response. Laser beams are gone. x-D...

Again, big thanks to Whitigir, tokyoskies and others for putting crazy (Mad Scientist) kinds of ideas in my head   So I went ahead and put the Z7 under the knife.. Again.. To my surprise it wasn't all that bad and the operation went rather smoothly.   After removing the Center Filters I...

  For Anyone considering doing the Center Filter Mod

Appreciate the feedback! I'll do some experimenting :) maybe I'll get use to it. I'll post some more photos Later. On the progress

Hehe I know right! The outstanding quality and craftsmanship of the Z7 makes it a breeze to take apart and mod. Almost like it was intentional :D I've taken them apart a few times now and haven't added a single scratch to them! Thanks Japan! But.. in my experimental naïveté Inhave...

Couldn't resist!! Did the Center filter mod and Pad Mod.. Holy SH!T !!
