MANY would buy it I bet..

I mean look at their headphone in white.
 
It sold out! And it costs 3X the current price of the logies!
 
EDIT: well..elver proved me wrong with the word naked that is part of my syntax...
 
Curse you Elver! you deserve a whack!

Haha...wifes and daughter and mothers will never get our passions.
 
Fathers, Brothers and sons, on the other hand, know what's up.

It's so true, the women in my life just don't get it, especially about how I treat my gear and my cars, I baby them, they usually stay looking new a very long time, until the GF borrows it, and it gets destroyed... no kidding... Darla the Destroyer.... no not my Mikros...

Getting home too late to play during the week...maybe on the weekend, if Ihave some free time. Will need to collect up the needed materials...Actually do find the bass and overall sound to improve with the Pipeline cable, have listened a bit since I got it back. See how that lasts with further listening, last night hi-res Daft Punk were a great listen (I still think they're Chic with a foreign accent)

Dude thanks so much, I always get a kick reading your posts, you are one crazy guy, cheers for all my belly laughs !! Oh and I have only 2 pair now, I have given 2 away... so there, and one is still in the repair bin, ML did mail me 2 little screws for the chrome collars on the headband, so I just need to get them fixed... easy peasy. No one likes it if it looks like you are having fun, should be a law to stop those Mik heads,   Damn them Loganites and martinians, I could go on, but Im just being silly

So if you are a basshead and you are satisfied with the bass...then those who seek more bass from these cans must just be crazy, no? 
 

 
 
And those who think that the Mikros doesn't have enough bass are just...
 

 
 
So basically, anyone who is not satisfied with the stock Mikros is nuts.  Well, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

Ok, so here's the @Lorspeaker ©MikrosHearThruBass mods with a rabbit HOLE size adjustment tweak.
 
Before:
 

 
 
After:
 

 
The hole is just a wee bit smaller. I used the double sided tape and just punched a hole through with the small screwdrivers (before attaching it to the driver).
 
I think this is working very well for me. Still an awesome amount of sub-bass, but just keyed back enough such that I can retain my fillings :)
 
Question: the top picture is of the left driver. Looking down the rabbit hole, I don't see anything obscuring the hole. Below is my right driver where you can see that the hole is half obstructed. Anyone else notice that?

When I 1st started posting about the Mikros, I was so sick of hearing that they had no bass, I was hearing great stuff, deep low bass, full of detail and punch, very enjoyable, so I have always felt they excelled at bass reproduction, more accurate than I had heard before, and something like that deserves sharing. And if in the sharing a few "outsider" who haven't been to the " HOLE" and looked beyond" may never accept the trueth and bow to the alter of Martin Logan greatness ! (is that hype ?)

 

 next step in the mod process if my cult manual is right, we need a willing virgin !
I'm not saying for what though. Again, a cult secret, even I don't know. Unfortunately, I have this amazing imagination... Ill get back to you on this

Yeah, the bass is certainly in plenty as is. Even as a basshead, I wouldn't wish for any more. To me, it borders on loose/uncontrolled sometimes in stock form, so I wonder if the mods tighten it up at all. I do enjoy it in current form though...

thanks wayne

 
Not sure what your setup is, but this is the hifimediy sabre dac that I use off of my laptop:

Apparently there is also a Sabre U2 dac, but I'm not familiar with it.
 
And here's the C&C BH:

The only downside with it is that it only gets a measly 80 hours per charge :)
