The HEK needs a lot of power to come to life and show all its potential You have the Moon Neo 430, so you must know this fact very well
Are there any third party earpads available for the HE1000? The stock HE1000 pads are quite hot
Pretty sure there are not because many here are waiting for the v2 pads like no tomorrow. If somebody made angled pads out of real leather that would definitely be a top seller!

Any more info or is that post just a tease for an upcoming article on Headfonia?
Incidentally, I notice that the CanJam EU report on that site quotes the following when comparing the v1 & v2.. "My unit is still in burn-in but it looks like the V2 sounds clearer with a little less body in bass and lower mids." Not sure I like the sound of that.
My mind and ears are still deciding which one they like most so in the mean time I'm listening to my HD800
Less Bass, more forward in the mids and treble..... Sounds like HD800's to me.. Exactly why I own HD800's; to complement my HE-1000.
HE-1000 needs more bass.
Can you swap the V2 pads onto the V1 and tell us how they sound?
10~100hours
V2 cans+V1 pads:
slightly increased bass quantity in extreme low frequency.
slightly laid back in whole frequencies but not so much as V1 cans+pads. (between V1 cans+pads and V2 cans+ pads)
soundimage and positioning are ambiguous than V2 cans+ pads. (almost same as V1 cans+pads)
Soundstage: almost as same as V1 cans + pads.
transparency same as V2 cans+pads. (better than V1 cans+pads)
details:same as V2 cans+pads. (very slightly better than V1 cans+pads because V1 is laid too back)
musical/emotional: same as V2 cans+pads. (better than better than V1 cans+pads)
impact/punchiness: less than V2 cans + pads. ( same as V1 cans+pads)
tonal balance: same as V2 cans + pads
