If that is all it does why not just use a K701 which doesn't have metallic treble, has toned down bass to begin with and has gargantuan soundstage to boot?
Well, I compared both the K701 and K601 to my Pro900s at the Boston meet, and the AKGs had a very un-natural midrange coloration. The Pro900s also had much better bass .... much better dynamics ... and were faster on complex music playback.
Basically, properly modded 900s sound much more like real music than the 701s do to my ears. And lastly, the 900s are much less expensive.
