the Beyer DT770, 880, and 990 have the same drivers. the only thing different with the 770 drivers is that they have a small foam cap on the back of them. So, if you come across any of those for a reasonable price, snag them. You can probably buy a pair of 770s for $130 or so, maybe cheaper in the FS forums. It might be cheaper than getting 2 drivers from the Beyerdynamic website. That would be pretty interesting to do that mod, I wonder if they would sound anything like the 880s or 990s. Those drivers sound great in open headphones.
It would be nice to add two discs of another wood of a different color to give it a nice two-tone finish. We'll see though. The Koss drivers are temps until I get replacements I think...been toying with the idea of Beyer drivers if the cash comes my way![]()
