So I just finished recabling my KSC75's and I decided to add a resistor in line (approx 75ohms). I just measured the resistance and its about 132ohms/channel. First impressions... well they seem pretty good, and I have to say I might just end up preferring these to my SR80's. They just seem more balanced and fun. Then again it is 3 in the morning and maybe I just havent gotten enough sleep yet to fully test them out. Anyway, I'm curious to see if theres a consensus on what resistor to put inline with the drivers. Each driver is approximately 54Ohms and I was wondering if anyone's done any testing/mods using different resistors. I've checked the boards and most seem to be concerned with re-cabling and headband mods, so I figured I'd start the resistor mod. Heres a pic (still gotta fix the wires sticking out):

Get back to me about the resistors and maybe we can get a consensus going.

The pic is too big for my little 15" screen...looks good though. I hope you get the wires safe from getting yanked off! That looks scary.

I use the 75 Ohm Etymotic P to S and I think it sounds easily better than not.
