After obtaining my HD650, I decided that I wanted to keep the marble look of my fairly new HD600, whose headband and pads are now nicely broken-in as well.
Here are the two nestling before the surgery:
The HD600's innards...
...the HD650's guts all lie in wait...
...which driver is which?
...their front sides...
...the HD650's heart receives its vessel...
...and a shot of the driver's face...
...and finally, here is the result. The HD650 is now encased in the HD600's headband. I really love the way that the darker driver covers and lighter grills look.
Already the HD650 sounds better because the earpads are worn-in
The HD600's drivers and grills will go into the HD650 headband. As for my HD650, I still have plenty of plans for it. Which color should I paint it? I'm contemplating deep blue.
Don't ask me the ultimate reason why I made this transplant, but I'll offer several: the process is simple and quick (under 30 minutes, no tools required); I prefer the HD600's case, especially the emblem's color, though I know that its designation is now incorrect; the vice-grip on the new HD650 was too much to bear even for a few days; plus, I'm bored waiting for my XLR plugs to arrive.
