Do the 770s improve with recabling alone, or are you talking about the full mod with woodies and the works? Does Larry tweak the drivers if you just get the cables repalced?

I tried EQing the inverse of the HeadRoom measurement curve for my HD555s in Foobar. It sounded terrible. What did I do wrong?

Well I got my Beyerdynamic DT770's today. I was immediately impressed by them but the bass did indeed seem to really mask the mids and the highs were a little opressive. However, after applying equalization following the curve below I found them much more condusive to all kinds of music. Luckily my sound card has very good support for equalization as it doesn't tend to distort anything in the process (also 10% volume is loud and I don't get source distortion until around 75% so I have plenty of leeway). In their native form the beyers seem perfect for techno...but anything else loses lower mid clarity and gets grainy on the highs.

I listen to literally all genres of music, so for anyone else with beyers, try an EQ curve like this and see how you like it.

Hey,
I don't see your eq settings but I'm very interested
