This is from a French website that specializes in
exclusive DX-1000 / DX-700 modifications.
 
Link here
 
Cups are exhanged from pine (stock) to
oak, unit is recabled with an in-house
cryo treated cable. Our modding man
(Pierre) claims that this brings the
DX-700 in-line with it's bigger
brother, the DX-1000.

pretty interesting, I contacted them for a loan, waiting for their answer...

Heya,
 
The wood is beautiful. But, $1170 EU for the entire compilation. Haha.
 
Very best,

Especially since you can just get the DX1000 for less... 
 
Good looking though (but 420 euro for the cable alone? *snort*)

yeah, but you can get them without the fancy cable for 750 EU.

420 for the cable, 500 for the stock headphones

 
anyway, If the guy's willing to ship these to me I'll do a review and will post pics..

 JVC-DX700 is another ignored jewel though ~ especially for the basshead with discerning taste,
 
 Would love to score another listen sometime, but the time I heard them (just the once, from an
 international student acquaintance) - they were solid thumping cans.
 
 A D5000 vs DX700 review would be a cracker.

in fact, the guy said on his blog that the dx700s are basically the same headphones as the dx1000s.. with BETTER drivers and a better headband

They look like Sony R10s. 
 
Head band and gimbals looks disappointing though.

 

[customcoco]

I much prefer the dx700 look. the dx1000 looks cheap in comparison, IMHO.

Thank you for interest in my modds,
 
Indeed, DX 700 is another ignored jewel !
They sound exactly like DX 1000, since they have the same drivers, and same ear cups.
Number part is J 47497 for DX 700 drivers and J 47497 for DX 1000 drivers !
You can see that in my blog , just after my Ultrasone édition 10 modd
