    Up for sale is a LFF modded HE-5LE. Similar to the famous Code-X.

    I'm the original owner of this mod. After finding a super-clean HE-5LE here on HF, I sent the pair to Luis to mod. They been my go-to headphone since. I've been spending more time working on my house than listening, so I think it's time for them to move on.

    What's included:

    Code-LE, modded HE-5LE headphone
    7 ft. LQI OFC braided balanced cable, XLR term.

    Price:
    $1000 shipped, PP fees included.

    Conditions:
    Friends and (6 month +) Contributors only.
    CONUS only for included shipping. Will ship to Canada at buyers expense, and I will NOT fudge customs docs, so don't ask.

    FWIW I felt the LFF mods on the 5LE scaled them further than the mods on the HE6 did relative to stock (w/pad swap) on each.

    This definitely deserves the type of consideration a proper HE5 Code-X does. These headphones have a unique sound about them even amongst other quality planars.

    @captkirk is awesome and I'm sure this deal will go smoothly :)
