You know, the bumps on the SRH 940 bothered me a bunch more. I don't even notice them and the pads are much more comfy on the Q 701.

go to e baby section in any shopping mall. They sell these cotton wraps that is suppose to wrap around e seat belts on prams to made it more comfortable for e toddler. Buy one n wrap around e headband. Problem solved. Some more it is washable
Has someone already asked Tyll to graph a bass modded Q 701? I'm very curious to see what it does exactly.
2. START W/ THE RIGHT GRILL!! Find a thumb tack. It's too fat to go all the way through, so don't worry about poking anything. Once you have penetrated the hole of your choice (just the tip), gently, but forcefully begin to rotate counter clockwise. You should notice the grill spin ever so slightly.
3. Now just "pry" open w/ the tack or turn over and it should fall off. You can see the mechanism and peeking out from the shadows is...
4. THE FOAMY! Pick up, place on desk. Don't forget which side is which. Honestly, I have no idea if this matters, but one side is darker than the other.
5. 2 screws! UNSCREW them!! Sadly, I did not snap a photo for the next step, so I'll do my best here:
a. The cover is "snapped" in on the L and R sides w/ one of those little "plastic hook" thingamajigs that push out.
b. Start w/ the one on the right (it was easier for me) by pushing in and up...carefully.
c. Be mindful of the wire guide covers as those also need to be "popped" out.
d. The left side was very difficult for me, so be aware you may need to use some trickery here.
6. Honestly...to me...it looks like one of those little band-aids for razer cuts, lol.
7. All you really need to do here is pry the tape/glue up enough to get hold of it with...
8. Tweezers! I use LA CROSS. High quality from Wal-Mart. You'll need to do quite a bit of pulling here, but it worked for me.
9. I'M FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
10. Lastly, apply the stickers.
The end.
I just did the bass mod and it was a piece of cake to do. All I must say is why don't the Q701 come with the sticker removed by default because it is that much better without it!
Oh come on, not yet another incarnation of the same headphone. We already have umpteen models of the K701. What we really need is a measurement of this mod
I'm not sure this is widely known, but it looks like this is the change between the k701 and the q701. My Qs did not have anything there.
Sonic have you gotten a reply from Tyll?
