Seamless Sounds
Previously known as HeadFi Fanatic
This mod replaces the K701 headband (those annoying bumps) with a bumpless headband from K601 for added comfort.

K601 headband part number:
2458M98010 $87.85
It includes everything you see in the image below
Locate the transparent plastic
Behind it you'll see that the transparent plastic is fastened into the white plastic glider. Press against either side to pop the transparent plastic off the glider.
Next we remove the CE button. This button is held in place via friction so there's no locking mechanism. All you do is pull it out. See where I have the flat-head screwdriver inserted? That is where it is to be inserted. Get two flat-head screwdrivers and insert them on opposite ends of each other and pry the CE button out. Go all around.
This is what it looks like. The white CE knob is fixed into the silver knob via friction.
Now the silver locking knob is exposed after removing the CE button. Push it out with force. The locking mechanism (the 4 corners you see in the image below) isn't all that strong because the grips are small (see image above), but if it doesn't budge, gently nudge the 4 locks inwards. WARNING: Don't push it in too far! They're made of plastic and you can break it if you apply too much stress. Pushing it out is safer.
Free the K701 headband from the headphones. Repeat the same steps for the K601 headband. Remove the locking and CE knobs as well as the black plastic thing.
