Hello, I wanted to resurrect this thread. I have the pro900 now for a few months and I like it at home and on the go,m it has just enough isolation for my needs. Although i will soon sell it and get the jvcdx1000, i might rebuy it in the future if I dont like that one because I think the pro900 is the best closed phone (in a compromise between comfort, isolation, builtquality and sq) that I have found so far, although i still want to try the new shures. I want to say that my pro900 has really com eto life with my new woo wa2 which was not expected. It sounded very nice and neutral with my headroom ultra desktop but with the woo it sounds so much more lively and has a better more pronounced low end. I like it a lot and i was surprised by this synergy between the wa2, which is an otl tube amp and the pro900
Greetings, Anouk,

Right, I finally decided to try padding my Pro 900, and put 1 piece of felt in the bottom, then stuck another small piece of felt over one of the baffle holes on the metallic driver mounting plate.

I can't believe how much the sound has changed. My Pro 900 now kind of remind me of HD650s actually; That same sort of "richness" to the sound, yet still non-fatiguing.
