I've owned these cans for about 5 years and never bought new pads before today. I just had to make a new topic about this, I never expected such a huge difference in sound. Actually, I only expected a change in comfort.
Everything came back alive. Imaging is so much better, bass is better, everything is better. I wish I realized before how much the performance had dropped with the aging pads. Now that I look at the old pads, I notice the from has changed radically and they are distinctly different color regardless of regular cleaning.
Has anyone else experienced this? I highly recommend replacing old pads if you haven't done that before.
