Has anyone replaced the stock cable with the vmoda mic cable? I'm looking to get the silver one to match my plates and wanted to make sure it would fit and do its job well
To the admins: sorry for double posting but i've found the official thread for my headset right now!
Hi all mates!
I have a problem with my Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro i've buyed on Amazon.
The first couple produced a strange vibration (barely audible) in the left earcup while listening to certain songs in certain "moments" of the song.
I decided to replace them, same problem on the same side!
What is the matter?
The source?
A whole faulty lot?
For example, when I listen to this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkFqg5wAuFk
At the third repetition of the main riff (around 0:02 to 0:03) I hear a strange noise, no matter the source, if is my original CD or my smartphone, my desktop PC, I clearly ear a strange vibration in the left earcup at that time range of the song.
And this is the second headphone replaced.
Obviously, no problems with other cheaper headphones or some stupid stress test from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, i'm going crazy!
Some owner of these headphones encountered the same problem?
Or maybe I'm too picky ... Or these headphones still require a good break-in?
Sorry for my English, thank you for your time and for any future responses!
TLR - I want to swap DT770 drivers into my Custom One Pro shell. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to shell out $100 for drivers and end up with a worse sound than before.

Try these threads for more help.
Lists of mods and accessories that I have added to my 3 pairs (I only own 1 right now, the other were presents to my cousin and my sister) of COPs:
- The Beyerdynamic COP Headset Gear Custom One Pro Microphone
- Black Lamb Leather Audeze Angled Earpads
- Beyerdynamic Real Leather Aviator Headbands (both black and brown)
- Custom Cut 1mm Thick Real Carbon Fiber Covers
- Painting And Then Glossy Acrylic Coating All Of The Removable Plastic Accents
- Beyerdynamic DT 770 600 Ohm Drivers
Although the 600 ohm DT 770's drivers do have less base than the 15 ohm COP's drivers, they do gain a lot of base in return when you wear them with the leather audeze earpads instead of their stock velour ones and when you have the base ports set to position 3. Overall, all of the parts and components for these mods (including a used pair of COPs) cost me around $400 each (~$1200 for all 3 headphones), and what I got out of it was what I can argue to be the greatest and most comfortable pairs (for the price) of audiophile grade headsets I dare say in our current time. I've had these headsets (paired up with their respective customized mayflower O2 + ODAC combos) for over the better half of the year (although the idea itself was conceived before Black Friday of 2014), and they've held up pretty well and I (and my cousin and sister) have had no issues with them whatsoever.
Post some pictures man.
