Well I did it, used small drill bit and slowly peeled out soft plastic at dimple site, be careful cable threads through there, but man glad I did, really warmed up and opened soundstage, less compressed/ more dynamic. I like This was to the an16.
Don't mean to hijack thread but since the an16 is mentioned in graph above and the mod has such a profound effect, I feel compelled to comment that these have really been transformed, Christian McBride Trio live at Village Vanguard sounds awesome, these bio-cell drivers are really something else. They are rivaling my kef m200s and finder x1s for head time.
So the xe800 pairs I'd ordered have finally arrived. They are indeed original pairs which makes them the bargain of the century. They are also indeed slightly retuned via the bass ports compared to the first batch (the ports are visibly tighter), resulting in a more neutral sound.
Going for $18 now...

Very true @rikk009 RIP our wallets even more for Head-fi'ers persuit of perfect audio reproduction. Just a heads up guys now it's going for an unbelievably low price of $16.45 which IMHO is a steal currently for the XE800 as it has now dropped to $16.XX since early January 2017 from Rillpac Store @ Aliexpress for the Vivo XE800

@endia ikr but I trust Rillpac Store more on Aliexpress as I'd had excellent customer service from them as they have being trading on Aliexpress since 2010 with 10511 reviews and 99.2% Positive feedback. Plus all of the other products i've bought ferom them are 100% authentic and arrived quickly with cheap shipping options and as described from Rillpac they even kindly warn you of counterfeits that is priced way too cheap in each of their listings for popular in demand goods.
Hi guys. So the general concensus, aliexpress xe800 all legit? Even the 13 usd one? I want to replace my soundmagic e80 as the cable too worn out already.
