it's a modded HE-5 from LFF. There are only a few floating out in the wild but it's a hell of a headphone.

Cool. If you are in SF bay area, please PM me with cost and details.
I have a pair of these on order and thinking about mods, but want to listen to stock first.

Well, if you are in SF Bay Area yourself, I wouldn't mind meeting up once you get your stock pair so that you can listen to the modded pair and determine whether you'd like to mod yours or not.

I can also perform the mod on the spot (it really takes just a few minutes), and it won't cost you a penny.

It sure is. In fact, it seems like you just missed out on last week's mini meet... and on the Ragnarok/Yggdrasil!

We can try to bring together another one soon-ish.

I merely opened this thread so that I can get some help putting together a guide, and gaining some more understanding.

Haha, well, I'm hoping the extra bass gained from the mod will bash some pirate heads in! :)p1

Honestly, though, it's a nice ship place indeed.

I live in Berkeley and also in Shanghai. Will let you know when I get the cans and will arrange a meetup. Happy to provide the refreshments.

Hmm... so breaking the seal on the pads (from the dousble sided tape) increases the bass quantity?

Great! Please let me know.

I have a friend in Boulder Creek who can probably host this mini meet if he's free one of these days...

Yeah, pretty much. Same thing as the Abyss.

Direct comparison with LCD-3, stock HE-560 and stock HE-6 would show that this one has significantly more bass output.
