Does anyone know if I can do the foam mod for the HD 579?
@chipstjuven oh that's interesting.. May i ask If it's build at least as good/ better than the price may indicate? And how about its comfort?
It might be a good headphone to recommend to people/ as a gift
And, waiting for a more concise review of its sound from you
that sounds very promising .I got the HD 4.30 the other day and I must say they are very decent sounding. Lots of bass for a Sennheiser headphone. At first I thought vocals sounded a bit tinny and a little distant, but I don't hear it like that that anymore. Must have gotten used to the sound quickly!
Great build, comfort, isolation and mic+remote. Just what I was looking for actually! Oh and they look gorgeous.
Hello,
I recently bought the HD 579's and realized that it's possible to do the foam mod, and possibly make them sound like the HD 599's.
The mesh on the back of the headphones are exactly the same as the 598's, which I presume are the same as the 599's.

I also posted a short impressions in the thread.
If anyone is willing to post the insides of a 599 to confirm, I would be grateful.
Well I went in the shop today to find out what's missing. What I can gather from my 30 minute session there is that the HD 599 has a boost in bass presence, a more contained soundstage compared to the HD598, and the trebles were a lot less shinier. The only discovery I had to get used to is that the newly acquired bass dwarfed a bit of HD599's mids, making the sound signature slightly darker, but even in that statement, I am not referring to HD599 as a dark headphone by far.
