![]() The main purpose is to tighten the bass as these phones rock but so much so that they cause extra vibrations in the cups. If you are not familiar with the markl mods, there is some extra damping done to the driver and cup. The Jena Labs cable and Furutech plug make the headphone look very serious. Considering the heft of the headphones, they are surprisingly comfortable, partially owing, I’m sure, to the extra padding. The mechanism that allows the user to adjust the fit operates easily and smoothly and never slips. The Denon headphones are nothing short of gorgeous with their beautiful solid mahogany cups and soft (what I think is genuine) leather pads and headband lining. The Lawton Audio MD5000 DE consists of the Denon AH-D5000 headphone with the original markl Mod, rewired with Jena Labs cable. That may be a strong a statement when applied to listening to a headphone but these cans definitely opened my eyes to what my true preferences for listening to music are. Once in a while you make a personal discovery that changes the way you look at the world. He also was kind enough to let me audition the headphones for an additional month. Many thanks to markl for lending a pair of his MD5000 DE headphones for the New York Head-Fi meet on December 13. Listening (to) Notes – A review of the MD5000 DE Headphone
