I'm afraid to rip them apart and break then

I personally wonder if I could take the bet to replace all internal wiring with OCC, I'm just unsure how to tackle that headband wire huh: http://bbs.kakaku.com/bbs/K0000699311/SortID=18427226/ImageID=2138163/

and I can't find the part# of the left cup so I could go dual-entry

Thing is, this phone's bass digs so deep that I get to dig up old hip hop such as

Boards of Canada also works:

Kinda feels like listening to non-bassy music is a waste of potential and time lol, like watching DVD on a 4K set hah

I've listened to plenty of classical on this, the highs are so damn good. But there is a specific sharp peak that hurts and you want to avoid music that has it.
Without that specific peak the whole headphone would be perfect because the details are so damn good and its drivable by everything under the sun.

Got no time at the moment.
Enjoying my new AH-MM400, AH-D7200 & YH-2 (yes I ended up buying 3 pairs of headphones back to back...)

once pimped it'll trump them all no doubt

The YH-2 is from the 70s but its a masterpiece of engineering for Jazz/Classical music IMHO.
The mids are so full and clear and accurate..... Its incredibly enjoyable!

Hi!
Is there any earpad out there for these headphones?
A: same, new earpads for replacement, if needed
B: different, compatible earpads for upgrade. E.g. earpads with some fabric on the inside for attenuating treble harshness. Shure SRH840's earpads have 2 layers. Inner side is foam and outer side is fabric.
If none, how would work some reputable earpad glued on the HD10? E.g. Shure pads, Brainwavz pads, Beyer pads.

 

[leeperry]

nah you need the stock ones or FR will suffer.

you must do your homework and mod them to reduce harshness, don't expect earpads to do miracles.

Hi, new to head-fi here. I bought a pair of these recently and was very disappointed at first listen out of the box: hollow sounding, nasal, harsh detail. But I'm posting to say, don't give up right away: after some hours of use I noticed the sound was MUCH better. I thought maybe I had just gotten used to them, but I did a comparison again with a couple other headphones I have and I am convinced the sound really has improved quite a bit. It sits between my Sony MDR-1As and Audio Technica MSR7s. Not as much bass as the Sony, but more detail, the bass is there when you need it, and it's not as sharp and high sounding as the MR7s. It may be my favorite of the bunch now.

 

[leeperry]

oh yes it's a huge let-down out of the box.
