Thanks!
Which filter mod did you exactly do?
So, in the end, still, if you wish to get good sound out of EVO`s, filter mod is needed. Kind of deja-vu (original HD-681 red) ;D Now I wish someone compared filter modded EVO vs. HD-681 (mkII frans filter mod).
Btw, do you have schematic for EVO`s filter mod or is it same as with HD-681 ? Haven`t done research about EVO`s filter mods. Can you give a link maybe?

I made a filter that i can switch between the red line (fun bass) and green line (flat) and i prefer the later. This is the prototype, Frans is working on it and will release the final with an article soon. I have both 681 filtered and EVO but my 681 is quite degraded after i try various ways to modify it so i can't really compare them.
Good to know! Really curious how filter-modded EVO vs. filter-modded HD-681 turns out.
I think the modded EVO have more detail and soundstage is larger but the modded 681 has tighter bass because of little bit less mid bass hump and mid is fuller, smoother. I will say they are equal in quality and both are very good.

So, I guess old modded HD-681 is better for rock/metal/progressive/jazz and modded EVO is better for EDM, hip-hop, ambient etc. ?
What mods did you use? My experience that HD681 has less controlled bass than HD681EVO and EVO is more sensitive.
I could't agree more, especially regarding the bass
Imo, the unmodded 681 is more detailed though.
Guys, you know what? The EVO is now become even better, with some type of damping material to adress the mid bass hump, now it become even tighter, more control, i can say the EVO now become equal or even better than the original 681 in bass controll, tightness. This is totally awesome, a 50 bucks can that have thunderous bass but with tightness and cotrol, I have never heard a can under 300$ that has this amazing enjoyable bass, (sorry, i haven't heard the DT990) it amaze me every time i put it on. It was ipmroved from purple line to red line:
