Which one is AKG velour, K270? If so, why did you tape it, it should not have perforation in the back?

K270 is the one on top of the stack (first picture). It is not taped.
We just put tape around a rolled tissue and put it under the pads.

  • 2. K270 stock (nice bass, a bit forwarded mids, bit queeky in the upper mids
  • 2. K270 with a tape-sausage (similar to taped DT770V, but lots more bass and treble. Question of taste)
  • 3. K271 pleather (strongest mids of all pads, but thin bass)
  • 4. DT770VB with taped perforation (similar to DT770V but less bess and queeky recessed mids)
  • 5. DT660V stock (less bass than pleather, lots of treble, but strange mids)
  • 5. DT77VB stock (similar to DT660V)
  • 6. DT660V with taped perforation (similar to stock but very shrill)
  • 7. DT770V stock (telephone with kickbass)
  • 7. DT880V stock (shrill, shrill, shrill)



Isolation-Ranking:
  • 1. K271 pleather
  • 2. K270
  • 3. all Beyerpads
  • 4. DT880

Except of DT880 isolation is enough with all these pads in most of all situations, I think.
I searched and searched, but can't find the meaning of "queeky".
Can you please give some sort of definition?

It is that mids coloration that makes thing sound a bit like a duck. Other synonyms: mewl, squark.

Have your leather things already arrived?

Thanks for the clarification.
Is it the same as a peak somewhere in the upper mids?

No, the leathe pads hasn't arrived yet.
But I didn't expect them to be so soon here. Late this week, I suppose.
Hope they don't give a queeky sound

I personally apply that for all various kinds of mids colorations.
