Thanks GLXR!
You're right, quite a few people have said they won't change back. I am not saying that people don't like the mod. As I remember from earlier in this thread, quite a few people said something to the effect that you lose a bit of separation, but it's worth it for the bass boost. I don't think the tradeoff is equal. I'd rather have the separation. The separation is, to my ears, almost completely lost after the mod. I'll admit that I'm very picky about bass balance. My preferred sound signature is neutral and the Qs are not neutral after the mod.
Stock q701 is never ever "analytical" though. The K702/K701's I had in the past were.
Wait a minute...I thought the Q701's, K701's and K702's were the same.

These are still great headphones, but I can see why they are now going for $199 rather than $250-300 like they used to be.
Brand new from Amazon, any color.
I got it from eBay(from a us seller) for $230 with shiping.Cheers,
I wonder if they'll ship to Canada?
Edit~nope!
The cheapest I can find the Q701 here in Canada is $260.00 with shipping.

Does anybody else here use EQ to make Q701s a tad bit darker? I generally use HE-400 for music and Q701s are my go-tos for gaming & movies, but I'm thinking about making EQ preset for Foobar / Equalizer APO to shave off everything past 6k by good 3-6db with the AKGs.
If anybody has any input, I'd love to have a look at your EQ settings.
Yes, I've considered getting HD650s, but maybe next year.
