Turn a pair of Sennheiser HD 555's into HD 595's!
Turn a pair of Sennheiser HD 555's into HD 595's! Posted on: 21.02.2011 by Franklin Momany Hope I'm not re-posting, but apparently Sennheiser is using a piece of foam that is blocking up to %50, %50! of the vents causing a restriction in the frequencies responses with the HD 555's. AOTS coverage: http://www.g4tv.com/videos/51377/The...derwood-21811/ How to & source: http://mikebeauchamp.com/misc/sennhe...to-hd-595-mod/ Congrats you just saved $150, if you bought the 595. . . .

| Art Beatz 27.02.2011 | I love these - they can take it all and they are as close to unbreakable as you can get, but I heard the sound quality is a C+; design A+ They do NOT fold - bummer! http://www.usa.philips.com/c/headphones/sho9560_28/prd/ |
| Brunilda Kora 27.02.2011 | They don't look like they'll take the bashing about that a good set of DJ headphones would. |
| Julissa Serrone 27.02.2011 | not having ever used or listend these. Are they any good for playing out? Seems like the are better for casual listening. |
| Brunilda Kora 27.02.2011 | I wonder if it's the same with other Sennheiser 'phones? |
| Art Beatz 26.02.2011 | wow - they look the same. I wonder if Sony is pullin' the same trickery... |
| Nakisha Startup 26.02.2011 | Yeah some one posted this about a week ago - I believe it is legit. |
| Cristian Carmona 26.02.2011 | i buy it. xbox did the same with harddrive they labeled them as 80 gb but they were larger. |

| Dana Ordinario 22.02.2011 | I love my HD25's but this does concern me. This is like the kind of stuff I expect from MONSTER. I really hope they put out some kind of press release explaining themselves or at the very least apologize for gouging there customers. |
| Brunilda Kora 22.02.2011 | Word gets around, though. Thank God. |
| Jacque Divinity 21.02.2011 | happens with all sorts of things in the tech industry.. whether it be a piece of foam or features locked in firmware etc, its been happening for years... and will continue to in the future |

| Anastacia Gorte 21.02.2011 | Thanks for the tip! I just did this to my pair, they sound much more "open" now. |
| Leeanna Ayla 21.02.2011 | Great find!! I thought first the driver must be different, but the source link has a pic of a replacement driver labeled 555/595 so indeed it is true. |

| Maisie Marras 21.02.2011 | or maybe it cost 100 some odd dollars to remove the foam in the factory. |
