just got a 2nd pair and will be doing some mods
Here is the velcro removed:
4 little screws attach the drivers to wood cup. The 5 big screws hold the driver together. Best not to remove them because its somewhat dangerous to reassemble and there isnt much to do there anyhow:
The first mod I did was to remove the foam. Grill is glued in place:
What did removing the foam do? Same thing it did on the M1060 it opens the sound stage and treble.
Also when removing the velcro i used pliers and rolled it down. That worked great but only got a ton of adhesive on the little shield. So i removed that shield on both strips of velcro
More mods to come. Experiments with different pads have been good so far but not “right” somehow. Only hace some brainwaves micro suede and someother brainwaves with coarser cloth. They both seem to mess with the highs too much. Have some Dekoni angled leathers i was using over the stock pads that I will try
So far just removing the foam is a big improvement
