Head-Fier
I am 100% onboard with cheap aliexpress hybrid pads and the hack @robertom described earlier in this thread.
*edit: Roberto is this trick something you've used on other pads before? New pads = bloated bass. Cut some holes = reduced bloat?
actually no, but I did try the reverse before on another headphone (adding bass by sealing velour sides on a pair of pads). Anyway, I think you also need a little luck, since the holes have to lower the range you need to lower, and this (almost) happens in this specific case.
