Glad you guys were able to do a BT to confirm. I've been advocating this for ages and it's integral to the mod. Now if you have speakers at home, try removing the grill covers and have a listen.  ;)



You cannot be serious. These were exactly my thoughts: Who in their right minds with a serious speaker rig, uses the cloth grills attached. Then why would anyone do this to their headphones.

If you think of it the rug liner is quite smart in reproducing an irregular room acoustic treatment. The more irregular the better.

Yup. I read when you said that and I thought "this motherfucker is mad or told us bullshits " .... once heard, I thought "fuck! This motherfucker told the truth"

 Notice that in both case you're a motherfucker. That's the most important point to remember in this story.  :)p13

Yes, that would be Italians. Americans think the French are all like Parisians. Pretentious arrogant cynics that suck at fighting but are really good at math.  ;D

Oh my bad. Italians it is then.

Now for the Parisians, for once it's spot on. Motherfuckers pretentious arrogant pricks. You have to get out of Paris to really see France :)

I love Paris but I'm not Parisian. I'm arrogant and cynic though.




@anaxilus : did you ever try to cut a hole in the dust covers in order to be able to free the drive AND keep the damping effect of the dust cover around the driver?

Someone has a free day ... I don't think the dust cover is as thick or able to cut the reflections as the rug liner, but who knows. What do you think of it ? Any change ?

And we are all cynics, those who aren't are just living in the world of care bears.  :)p3

Yes I drunk too much vodka last night... so in order to forget my headache, I thought is was fun to destroy one or two dust covers.

I need more time and Serious comparison (and less alcohol remaining in my blood) to give any serious opinion.

I'd never mod anything when hungover. Too risky ...

Have you found a suitable replacement for the creatology foam and felt ?
