Sennheiser HD555 mod

I modded my Sennheiser HD555 yesterday using this tutorial. And i know more people on CF have this headphone and maybe would like to try it as well.

It works pretty good, the sound is more clear. You can really notice that the headphone is better able to pull air.

It's really easy to do, i did it in like 5mins.

Its better to replace the big foam with a smaller one to avoid contact between two solid parts which will couse some rly fucked up sounds...

Taken from the youtube comments...
QuoteThe "retard" foam is ment to be their for a reson. A brand like sennheiser wouldent do that as a scam, Its actualy their to dampen the vibration at loud volumes so you dont get disroted bass from the drriver hiting the driver it self. It is infact the same driver tho, what they do is they move the driver slightly back giving the speaker more room for ossulation and much better lowws.

I bet you did read all the others comments?
Or didn't you see that most people like the mod?

I just tried too see if i like it as well and i do. And i never run my sennheiser on loud volumes anyway, so nothing to worry about than.
