Larry does amazing work. I bought a similar pair of phones back in the day, a pair of HP3000- that is- a Sony CD3000 with grado HP1000 drivers. They were simply stunning, a real work of art as far as the build quality and what was clearly a lot of craft and thought that went into the sound. They had such a unique and beautiful tone- better than any phone i've heard to date, and soundstage that is only beaten by the likes of the HD800.
As for this model, who knows what it will sound like. But there is a lot more to the sound than the material of the pads. There is a lot more space between the drivers and the ear with this mod, so take that into account when considering bass. More space= more air to push, which usually means less bass. But a better seal = more bass. A lot of factors here...
