How did you install them the wrong way? I thought they pretty much only go in one way.

I don't know lol but for real i had put it a wrong way cause now it's sounding awesome. Far better than stock pads

As many others have mentioned, the XL pads are way more comfy than the originals. This is what they should have come with in the first place, I guess it's a style thing.
 

 

 
The price was very nice too, good stuff.

How do the XL pads effect the "storage mode" of the M100? Do they have to squish to fit or is there no problems?

It does squeezed able. Though a bit crampy but still fit inside

I found that the XL-Pads become worse over a span of 8-9 months. The memory foam becomes smushed and stays smush.

I would prefer not to call it memory foam.I believe memory foam is something like comply eartips, but this xl pads totally NOT. Just regular foam that doesn't retain shape (memory)

Is the smushing a result of regular listening or from folding up the hinges and leaving them like that for long periods of time?

Regular listening. Especially the front part where it is in contact with the cheek (because m100 doesn't have rotating hinge so the pressure pointis in front, not well distributed)

Regular listening and folding the headphones up.

  I personally find the difference night and day. With the Xl pads the bass becomes too harsh, while everything else seems laid back and boring.
It can't just be me who thinks it sounds better squished closer to the ears?

I had the stock pads on (with paper towel mod) on my M100's. They were quite comfortable, and sounded very good.
 
I just swapped over to the XL pads. Pretty much the same comfort level for me, but I'm not sure that I'm a fan of how the sound has changed. I'll give them a chance though...
 
Edit: not sure if it's just due to my ears getting used to the sound, or due to me having had a couple of cocktails, but either way I'm digging the sound now quite a bit. To be continued in the morning lol.

How long is it comfortable to wear these headphones for with the XL pads?

I can listen to my M-100 with XL pads for hours in comfort. But some people can't. It all depends on your ears size and shape I guess.
