(I'm asking this question because I don't like the flat pads with my RS-1 for Prog-Metal music..I just want to be sure that you used the bowl pads in your tests.) I also presume that with the bowl pads, the RS-1 will be a little bit too bright on Pico ? Cheers |

It opens up the soundstage, and amped they have plenty of bass so I don't need flats for that. Once the APS cable got a few hours on it the brightness subsided enough to use any amp with them. |
