Tl;dr of the mod is that it tightens the bass and drops it a few dBs to retain the smoothness of the 650 while bringing the sound closer to the neutral tone of the HD600.

Mod is reversible (take off the tape and reinsert the half-moon foam into the central spider cage).

 

It's not easy for me to let this pair of audio history go. Before hearing the Focal Clear my opinion of the 650 was that it either sounded better, or less flawed than many headphones under $1500 mark. The sound is clear, detailed and most importantly, non-fatiguing regardless of genre or mix.

 

Comes with the headphone, stock cables and 3.5mm adapter only. Original box has been lost due to the size it took up in storage.

Pickup preferred, but I'd be open to arranging delivery within 50km of Sydney.
