HD800 has become my main HPs and, being in France, I can't buy the material for your mods. I use EQ to lift the upper mids and shelve the treble but I have been waiting for your mods since the day I bought the HD800 about 2 years ago, thanks to you and Marv  :)p1

I don't know much about HD800 mods, but I have heard this name come up many times and people seem to be really pleased with it so I would be interested in trying it so long as it's easy to do and easily removable.

Put me down for a tentative one. I don't have an HD800 but I have some friends who do.

p.s. I'm in Canada. If there are other Canadians on the list, would it maybe be easier/cheaper to send one package up and have us distribute from here?

Armaegis, I've never had duties on anything declared as $200 or less and as a gift.

It's always handled with care and if it's insured for that amount there's a signature etc.
The only times I run into problems are some companies like Monoprice that ask for brokerage fees of $10+12% of purchase, but otherwise duties can be circumvented really easily.

Under 3 figures? I'm in, even though I don't own the HD800. Always been putting them off, but this might make me jump on them. Even if I never will, I'll gladly support the cause.

You've been lucky... I've hard charges of $40 on $30 parcels before. Even going through usps I usually have to pay some sort of fees/duties/etc on parcels coming in unless they are small boxes marked as gifts under $50, and even then sometimes they get opened up and checked. Bah, whatever, this isn't the thread to rant about that sort of thing.

Since 3.0 was created sometime last year,
I assuming this final public  version  will be an even more polished version of the original prototype.

I am betting that the correction of the hd800  issues in this fix will make for an extremely profound sonic image of clarity and precision.
Maybe we will finnaly have the can that can do it all.
No more face tweeter..lol
Count me in..

I assume this is a new version of the fairly famous DIY mod for HD800, but produced on a larger scale? I'm in, just to see what's the hype's all about. I own the HD800, so might as well.

List updated.

Sorry been out of country for almost 5 weeks, picked up acute bronchitis per webmd, and without a desktop PC atm due to nvidia being a bunch of liars about the GTX970.

The instructions will be as easy peasy and explicit as possible. I'll even experiment on zerodeefex since he has like only two brain cells. If he can do it, YOU CAN DO EET!

For the DIY install, it should be a breeze as long as you don't have severe rheumatoid arthritis. If anyone falls into this category pm me.

I'll try to get fresh pics of latest CSD's as confirmed by other independent third parties in conjunction with those on this site already.

Thanks all.

Mike

It's all relative. That's a 100% improvement over baseline which is significant.

Count me in.

I'm sure the CSDs will be great, but I'm curious about transparency (if I remember that is part of the reason it's been delayed). My attempts (I tried twice, the 2nd time more carefully) at doing Tyll's mod left me feeling that transparency was reduced, and I never lasted long with it. I'm back to stock with some constantly changing equalization instead.

Eagerly waiting for some measurements! >500Hz will surely be a huge improvement (as previous done for the 3.0 have shown), not only in smoothness but time domain as well. Am interested how this mod will affect harmonic distortion figures in bass. Subjective analysis? I guess inexperienced listeners would see it get relatively "bloated" due to the quite significant drop at ~5K.
Looking at the shape of the enclosure, I doubt a bit of liner or whatever secret sauce it has will have much of an effect though.

If anyone has extreme problematic issues with DIY or just simple manipulation of such a kit, please let me know openly or via pm. I'd like to get a feel for how many might be in this position.

 :)p5


I take it the kit, when made available, will include all the material items cut to your specification, and it will then just be a matter of installing within the cups.

How is the lining kept in place? I assume that it will be easily reversible without fear of leaving residue. I've never tried this mod (as I never felt the need to tame the HD800), but I'm curious to hear what your efforts have achieved.

Friction atm. I was referring to folks who expressed they might be more physically challenged and still want to give it a go. I'm just talking about meeting a particular need, not the kits general character.

The only thing I find to be difficult is to get the floor liner to sit right within the ear cup with Anax 2.0 mod. I like how the original Sennheiser ear cup inserts are shaped to "slot" into place due to their form fitting cup shape.

Thx Maxx, much appreciated. You should save it till you hear the mod first, you might change your mind.  :P ;)

Hi, Anax

Please add me to the list if my being in Australia isn't a problem (we can work something out regarding shipping?). If not, I'll do my best to do it myself once you release more details.

Anyway, back to lurking, cheers!

List updated! Just working out some materials sourcing issues and then got to run it through customer use/abuse trials and iron out the finishing touches.

Thanks for everyone's support!  :)p5
Are these the parts of the process (sourcing issues persist, trials still running) that are being worked on, or is there any new news? A quick update would be sweet.

Still have no idea how people get along with stock sound

I'm fine with HD800 stock sound but it needed a lot of time and efforts on the gear to get used to it . Remember I almost don't listen to rock/metal/pop . That helps.

I even tried to let go the HD800 during a month . During this month I listened mostly a Stax SR404 and it took maybe half an hour fo my brain to adjust when the HD800 came back.  If I listened to a HD650 during the same period, it would probably have taken more than half an hour...

I currently run my HD800 without the Dust covers and with some thin rugliner. The change is not huge but I think the rugliner helps.

I'm currently trying  the same method on my hd800. Quite like it. When I had a friend coming, and we went back to stock, it seem stock a bit warmer and fuzzy. Quite noticeable difference eventhough it's small.

For sure, I would never come back to dust covers.  Stock without anything is bit too sharp. Rug liner seems to put the HD800 in a sweet spot for me and the music I listen to but  it's still a HD800. 


Will see with my Vali that should arrive soon.  I remember the Vali is a tiny bit on the bright side but maybe it's only my memory.  Final adjustments when the Stratus will be there  :)p7

List updated.

Still working on sourcing the proper type of materials in the proper quantity and quality. Once that happens, things can move forward a lot quicker. I'm just against putting a product out there where people could be receiving product in random colors and condition. I don't think people want to pay for that, and I don't want to deal with the potential issues that would incur. Better to get it right the first time.

As for templates, I believe Tyll and Marv posted their own for prior versions. These are NOT the same as what I will be shipping obviously, but if anyone is in a time crunch and has the ability to play around on their own please give it a go.

I am eagerly awaiting for your visit to BIG SOUND 2015 OMG and the write up to follow.

Last weekend I tried to replicate Tyll's shape but with my own twist. It seems like the thin Creatology foam plus polyester felt works well in a thinner ring – if you make it thicker it can over dampen the drivers and mess with the sound stage (from what I read on Tyll's writeup).

So I cut out a tapered ring, where the back (where the trapezoid connects) is 10mm wide, then near the front it tapers down to 4 or 5mm. I used the same trapezoid shape.

It sounded good but it looks like V2 of the mod introduced the layer of rug liner around the rest of the ear cup. I cut up the provided shape from the v2 mod PDF and tried to stick it in but it wouldn't fit. Clipping the rings in half made it so they fit PERFECTLY over the mushy metallic material, and do not cover the foam+felt at all.

Lastly, the HD800 has plenty of treble (to my ears) and it seems like the original liner helps reduce the 3kHz attenuation (can be seen in the original HD800 vs original no liner plots) so I put the liner back in. Also I am super paranoid about ruining the driver, so the extra protection is nice.

Ohhhh boy oh boy oh boy do these HD 800s sound good. Bass actually has that low end THUMP. Songs are still quite detailed and instruments are well separated spatially, but that ear-piercing peak at 6kHz seems to be tamed. I can actually listen to my most music without wincing. Before I felt constrained to only the purest of the pure recordings and that got old kinda fast.

Thank you for your work and everyone else who has contributed to this mod. Great stuff.

Well, I haven't found the description of the DIY mod but I don't want to miss out. Consider me for a spot too please, Anaxilus.

This is what I worked from more or less -

Marv's pics of his cup placement: http://www.changstar.com/index.php/topic,497.msg9987.html#msg9987

Materials list and purchase links on this post: http://www.changstar.com/index.php/topic,497.msg9997.html#msg9997 (One post down, but I figured the direct link would save a second. PDF of the template printout is also attached to that post.)

I used supertape to attach the rug liner to the creatology because it's the lowest profile adhesive I could find, but that's stupid expensive for what you get and what it does. A couple small pieces of Alene's Double-Sided should work just as well http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005572IG2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

All that said, Anax 3.0 should be a large leap over these. I consider my own mod job a bit of a placeholder...even though it sounds pretty nice.
