Thanks everyone for your tips and advice. After fooling around for a couple hours I think I have found the sound I was searching for. This is what I did:
1. Added a ring of silverstone foam to the ear side baffle with a 4x4cm square cut out in the middle over the driver.
2. Inserted a 4x4cm square of stiff black felt into the square hole in the silverstone foam.
3. Added more teased cotton balls into the cups (1 cotton ball each)
From what I can tell, the silverstone in the ear side baffle helped remove some of the resonance from the upper mids / lower treble. The stiff felt over the front of the driver tamed the treble and some of the upper mids and likely cut down on the resonance as well. After those two mods I noticed that the treble detail wasn't where I wanted it to be so I added more cotton into the cups which brought back just enough detail for my liking.
Now I am a happy man!
