P/S : Sorry for my bad english.
Hey i remember you from the Audiophile section in lowyat.net.

Yes the replacement cable is very very good. The veiled and dark signature is now gone, and the headphones are easier to drive as well. However, a good amp will really make these things shine. With the vero cables they now sound very hi fi.

I don't see how it is physically possible for a cable to make a headphone easier to drive. Ooops, I forgot I was posting on head-fi.

I've cleaned my pads before with mild handwash detergent and warm water and it worked OK. I wouldn't stick them in the washing machine though!

 

After a bit of research, I think the Shure 940 and the Senn 555/595 pads might fit the DR150s, so i think I'll try the Senn pads as they are cheaper and designed for an open back headphone.

 

So..tell us more! I just bought a pair of dr150 in a local store, i simply love them! it would be really nice to know i will be able to replace the pads in the future!

 

Senn or Shure? what did you buy? did they fit?

 

thanks and sorry for my bad english :D

It's not a great story I'm afraid smile.gif

 

I bought some Sennheiser pads in the end and, while they are almost the perfect size, they have a plastic ring attached to the back and so it is impossible to fit them onto the DR150s!

 

I haven't tried the Shure pads yet, so can't say for certain if they will fit.  However, they will fit onto a pair of Fischer Audio FA-003s and the FA-003 pads fit onto the Goldrings, so I think it's reasonably likely the Shure pads will fit the Goldrings as well ...
