upGrado!

Printing version 0.2 of my "upGrado" at this moment.

I want to make an upgrade to the Grado prestige series headphones to make them not only sound as awesome as they do, but also be comfortable and at least somewhat stylish.

For now, some screenshots:

I love those keyshot renders, even if they are limited to 800x600 in the lite version :P

Changes from v0.1 which sound rather muddy and very bass heavy:
Increased adapter thickness, and added some holes for the ear to breathe. It gets awfully hot under those big DT770 cushions :(

/edit:
Gotta show the (unmodified) SR80e to a friend today who needs buying advice. After that's done I will go one step further and replace the cups completely. That should improve the sound and will enable me to make a stylish variant with better fit possibilities.
