Just so you guys know...both my partner and I take our sweet time modifying them but it's only because we care about our work so much. I also take the time to answer A LOT of email and pm's. I spend at least 2 hours a day fielding questions.
If I wanted to turn a huge profit, I'd just mass produce and sell/push it on every new member here. I also wouldn't offer re-cables or paint jobs or removable cables or be willing to work with people to accomplish other options.
As an example:
I had one customers headphone completely finished but there was a slight channel imbalance. While I HIGHLY doubt he would have noticed it, I just binned the finished headphone and ordered a new one and started all over again. Likewise, if we are not happy with the paint finish, we will sand it and start all over again. We have recently just finished building a new paint booth for which we hired a contractor and an hvac specialist. Just the fan and dust filtration system ran my partner over $2000! We have been working on getting this completed to not just speed up time but also to provide a better finish.
We both pour our heart and souls into what we build and we hope you notice it in the resulting sound quality and your happiness level.
im in no position to buy those yet because im so busy saving up for the fostex hpp1 (you know, dont want the internal ipod dacs and amp to be my limitation to high end audio) but i have a stock fostex t50rp sitting around that is definitely going to be sent for modding, either mad dog or paradox or both. so yes, comparsion please?
