Sorry for the late reply , wasn't checking this thread till today.
If you are referring to this mod in my post..
6. to fix the poor sound proofing of the drivers - i unscrew the shell (4 screws on left, 4 on right) - till i saw the driver. The driver is seated inside a plastic shell. This is the problem. the sound gets leaks and resulting in poor bass. Here's why i did to improve it. Get some blue tack - lined the blue tack along the circumference of the driver against the wall of the plastic. So the blue tac seals the drivers circumference against the housing shell. ** you will immediately notice a 20 percent ** improvement in sub bass region and the bass has better tighter impact.
here's the instructions and photos ( i dissaemble everything to show you again)
1. Remove earcups and remove 4 screws of the left and right plastic drivers housing
2 . Warning !! - there is a small spring in between the housing (the spring is for the 2 rods angle adjustment that attached to the headband.. So when you have remove the 4 screws, gently pry it open .. don't lose that small spring.
3. once open , you will see the speakers driver ** in the sample photo**.
4. the speaker drivers was glued to the plastic housing. to prevent sound leaking - use blu tack and lay it on the circumference of the driver to create the seal between housing and drivers.
** in my photo it was black colored blu-tack.. see my index finger pointing to it.. ** - just lay enough blu-tack to lined it to seal the gap between driver and plastic housing.. after all it's just to prevent sound leak from driver outwards..
5. you can try on one side of the headphone first .. then assemble it and i hope you will notice the differences (before & after). Mid and bass is tighter (previously mids too sharp and loose) and wide soundstage remains the same.
6. Enjoy !!
