They were pretty standard in that regard. You/they can just pull them off; I found it easier to start on a "middle" side rather than the top or bottom.

Well, I received my ESP950's yesterday from girlfriend (wish some suggestions from me...) and I have to say that they're quite nice so far! I actually ordered them quite a bit ahead of time, so with the advanced notice I was able to buy some pads and my Vesper Audio pads came in today as well...

Quote: Budget: Nothing specific. I'm willing to wait and save, but the highest I'd probably go would be the 650. Where: Home. Isolation: None required. Kind of music: Pretty cliched "everything", except for country and "hard" edm stuff. So rock, alternative, punk, with some electronic...

Might start my own thread, but figured I'd ask here first.   Any opinion on which "high end" Sennheiser is most similar sounding to the hd 428? I bought it just to try it the Sennheiser signature, and I rather like it. Wondering where to go. 600/650 or 595/598, or something else?  

Near as I can tell, that is indeed the case. I think whenever they get a return, it gets thrown up there. The msii that I bought was gone right after I ordered it, and the site updates really often, both with new items and items that only last a brief time.

Quote: Thanks! Nabbed the MSII. Not bad for $89 (open box).

For the folks using the Shure 840 pads, how has the fit been? I really like the pads, but they came off the old version of my MD's, which I'm pretty sure had to be stretched to fit them.  The 840's don't sit in the grooves super well on the 463, and only kind of stay on if I wrap them around the...

The "incase sonic" headphones are, so far, the most comfortable cans I've ever used (even over the Mad Dogs with Alpha pads). Extremely light weight, memory foam ear pads and head rest covered in suede. All quite sturdy. Detachable cable, if you're into that sort of thing.   Head-Fi thread...

HE-400 perhaps? (he-400 vs hd60)  

Quote: I ordered mine from the same seller using ePacket, and it took 9 days.

Okay, that didn't take long. Turns out it was the cable where it  enters into the cup. It's not really "locked down" anywhere inside, so whenever I turn my head or bump the cable, the thicker part bumps into the plastic shell of the cup. Thinking a touch of glue to keep it from being so mobile...

Okay, mine made it in today! First impressions, the headphones are quite good. Actually, my first thought was that they were "surprisingly competent", a term that I always felt was pejorative in the past, but my reaction was "wait, I paid how much for these?". My "highest end"  headphone is my...

While we're on the topic of stickers, is there a reason that you stopped using the angry dog sticker? I was a little sad to see it gone when I get my MD's back from their  840 upgrade. Of course it's all about the sound, so it's all good, but I was just curious.  

Quote: I made my purchase from them a few days ago (since the last one I bought from sent them to Russia accidentally ...), still looking forward to hearing these baby's.

Infinite sadness. The seller for my MH 463 sent it to the wrong country. 2 Weeks down, going to have to start the wait over again.
