The HD555 and HD595 use the EXACT same drivers and resonators... if you don't believe me search google for "Sennheiser HD 555 to HD 595 Mod"

[threatendcore]

Have you opened up a set of 595's to prove that this is in fact a mod to upgrade the 555 to the 595?

[FUCK202]

So does this work on the 558s to turn them into the 598s or is it just 555 > 595?

[DaBunnyKiss]

@wolfganggetz the 515/518 has a different hardware than the 555/558 and 595/598

[Myth1322]

@wolfganggetz Im fairly sure that this is only For the 555's, as they are built the same as the 595's

[wolfganggetz]

Can you do this to a pair of 518's?

Thanks. For me the one only down side to the HD555 was there wee bit weak bass, this seems to have fixed this..... :-)

@derbigpr500 ya I thought about it for a while and I did realize that there isn't any reason for not putting it there... I did realize when you think about it there would be a lot harsher of a high frequecy noise because that foam helped from protecting where it would get to harsh like that so I didn't do it, but thanks :)

[derbigpr500]

@derbigpr500 So, no , you don't get the 595 sound by simply removing the foam from 555. You only change the sound of 555 (for the worse). There's a reason why 595's are more expensive, and reasons go a bit deeper than average Joe who has no knowledge in Acoustics can understand.

@HenrytheBrit "The different models of cars by porche for the most part, only differ in weight. " Thats the dumbest thing I've read today, no offense.

[derbigpr500]

@tuskenc Exactly the same on paper, not on measuring tables.
