Beyerdynamic Manufaktur DT880/600 vs Headroom stock DT880/600? 
 
Does the Manufaktur sound better than the stock? The Manufaktur site charges an extra $100 WITHOUT any customization done yet. Why, is it because of the sound?

Nope, both are exactly the same. Besides the color customization of course...
 
Stuff is usually more expensive on the manufacturer's website, plus it's the complete novelty of being able to customize to that extent.
