I've been trying the yellow Sennheiser pads with my HF2's (no qtr mod, just stock). With bowls, I think the HF2's are a hair too bright, so I'd EQ them, and bowls don't work with my ears for comfort anyway. Comfies are the most comfortable, but the bass is increased so I'd have to EQ there.
But with the 414 pads, I don't need to EQ at all. (Less bass with the 414 pads than comfies.)
But the 414 pads are way too "scratchy". I don't know how else to explain it. Every 15 or 20 min, I have to take the HF2's off and scratch my ears and the sides of my face where they contact. They've gotten a bit better over the week, but yesterday I had enough and went back to comfies with a little EQ.
Anyone know of a way to decrease the scratchiness of the 414 pads w/o affecting their sound?
Maybe wash them?
