BOSE 

try amp it with ur diy cmoy
u will get more fuss

woooo
nice moding there
i got my SHP 895 yesterday
till now, i still prefer ksc-75.....
shit man... addicted to KSC-75 clarity n bright sound
treble n bass is really better than this 895, duno is it i haven fully burn in hp895 that make me got this kinda feel...
but hp 895 of coz wider sound stage, more details, but when talk buot the trebble, bass n clarity... find tat ksc-75 better  (the compariosn now shp 895 burned in for 20 hours with ksc-75 fully burn)

What amp you guys use? Saw the label it said 60 ohms!!!!. An EP630 only has 16 Ohms impedance, no wonder u need an amp to push ksc75 to the fullest

imho. amping it with normal amp doesn't bring heaven and earth different. just slight improve. everythings is more rich
how ever, when seriously amp it (zhaolu / PPAv2) it sound hell superb compare to unamp.
and some how some improper amp does cause distortion in bass. i have heard couple of amp causing that. but not on ppav2. =)
by the way, when it distort, means it telling you to tune down the volume. or the next things to distort is ur ear.

mADmAN:
Its some cheap plug i got from the same shop that sell canare plugs at jalan pasar, they were out of canare plugs when i was there so i just ask for an alternative.

nocar:
recabling is pretty easy. First, u need to take out the earhook, just pull it off from the headphone.
Then u need to take off the cover that covers the solder joints, its below the earhook and in a darker grey colour, u can see in the pict that i had cut the cover in half for more movement space for the earhook.
After u took out the cover, u can see the solder joints, just unsolder them and solder in ur new cables. The workspace there is pretty tight so be careful though =)

Sry i didnt take step by step pic and for the late reply, was away for cny =)

eokboy:
Haha, its really heavy when i lay the cable on the floor up to the phones. I lay the cable on the table circling around the keyboard in between the keyboard and the mousepad, cant feel the weight of the cable. No probs for me since i use the phone primarily for my pc =)

eokboy:

Using the original pads wif the aluminium wire mesh clears up the mid and tamed the treble a bit ( really ), adding the leather pads in my case totally killed the highs. If i add the original pad with the leather pads over it, the bass becomes totally bloated to the extent of cheap computer speakers' bass. What i did was to cellotape the center of the mesh, brings back the treble sparkle ( not as bright as original ) and now the bass is tight and has better impact than the original ksc-75.

From my previous experiences with my grado and alessandro headphones, pads do make a difference, but with the ksc-75 the difference is incredibly huge.

The general idea i get is:
If u have a chamber in the pads, the bigger the chamber, the more bass.
Treble depends on the amount the soundwaves reflects, and also depends on the material of reflection. Hard material ( leather ) = better treble. Soft material ( foam ) = less treble.

The reason i cellotape the center of the mesh is to create more reflections for the treble, instead of the soundwaves travelling direct to the ear ( which totally killed the treble in my case ). The cellotape made a huge difference.

Just my observations from 2 weeks of experimenting with pads and materials to obtain my "perfect sound". Hope it helps u ( as well as all fellow DIYers out there ).

p/s: It is also to note that the above methods only changes the frequency response of the headphone, other aspects like accuracy of instrument representation and etc are due to the driver and cannot be changed though =)

anyone can show me the post of modified ksc 75 cause i wanna modify too the clip is making my ear damn pain
