okay..
 
first you need to find some cable.. i used my cheapo interconnect cable for this,, it measured about 11,5cm long and 1,2cm tall..
 
 


 
 
 
 

 
then you need to slip the cable between the pad.. install the pad first,, and just slip the cable between the pad and the cup,, make sure it covers the half back of the pad... 

 
 
if you install it properly it will make the pad slightly angled and your ears should'nt touch the cup any more.. 

 
 
--------------------------
 
btw like i said earlier i just done some cable split mod to my pro 2900 using the black dragon cable and i like the result.. here is some picture..
 

 
 

 

after i try this with my pro 900, i lose all the bass and the punch lol ><

Have you already ruled out open backed headphones? I would much rather have that than closed 'phones for movies and gaming.

I wanted closed in case I watched movies at night or on a plane to keep everyone else from hearing too.

Not sure about the others, but I would not recommend the 550.

Why?

Why?

In my experience, I found that they generally sounded quite ordinary (occasionally the bass was nice but not always there in the right place), but the earcups were not very comfortable and the overall sound was a bit fatiguing to my ears. That's not to say that I haven't considered trying to get my hands on the 550's older siblings the 650 pro up to the 900 pro.

OK I think I'm going to go with the Ultrasone 750 Pros.

The stereo system should be fine if you mean a receiver, but I'm not sure about the other ones.

Oh ok. Do they sound good straight out of an iPhone? I can always buy an amp later on.

And how do 750 compare to 900?

iPhone/iPod should be likely fine - the MacBook Pro is supposed to be a decent analog source, but no idea about driving headphones directly. The PRO900 are fairly sensitive and low Z though, so they should play nice with a lot of equipment. WRT the PRO750 - can't help you there, my understanding is that the PRO900 is the "new" version, but it's also supposed to be one of the bassiest headphones ever made. I know that S-LOGIC Plus is going to have some advantages for staging over S-LOGIC, but that's more general and based on comparisons between headphones that aren't 750 v 900.

okay cool. Thanks a lot! I remember my hfi 2400 needed an amp because the volume was extremely low. Will the pro 900 run into this problem?
