My stitching skills wouldnt be good enough, so I would have to engage a professional. Its worth it I think.

This wasnt related to you, but to vid. I dont think he believes this seriously when saying that an equalizer can compensate the lack of parts missing on your headphone. Thats just make your headphone sound even more strange and will falsify the soundquality   Your video about replacing the...

You want to troll us? No comment on this ********.

By only using the cloth without any foam on the backside you will ruin the sound of your HD 540 Reference II completely. I have also tested this with cloth only and the bass becomes very loose without any contour.  This is not in the sense of the engineers who have devoleped this headphone.  ...

Why do you put so much effort in this? I dont think that the sound quality will be better when you just replacing the inner foam of your old pads. Although these pads are new and the covering of your old verlour pads are over 20 years old. Sooner or later there comes the time, when you have to...

Today I have received my Sennheiser HD 430 pads for replacement to the HD 540 Reference II. Before I bought them I have tested my headphones with the HD 250 Pads which was already discussed in this thread, but however I dont liked these pads.   The HD 250 Pads are way to expensive (30€) and...

I see we have two different types of idelology in Germany and America, so it would be hard for me to decline on that discussion, also for the reason that english is not my native speaking.   Most of the Germans do have a more emotional thinking when it comes to the origin of the product, cause...

The only reason that you can still enjoy your old Sennheiser headphones even after 30 years, is their long life build quality Made in Germany.   I dont see a reason to buy a chinese Product for 200€, when I can get for almost half of the price a german made Beyerdynamic headphone like DT-990...

I also had the AKG K701 last month ago just for testing when comparing them my Sennheiser HD 560 Ovation I. The AKG K701 are really beautiful headphones with a nice wearing comfort, good material quality and also stressfree sounding. So it was very hard for me to take out the winner in this...

This will tell me what? Nothing  !

So can someone tell me the difference between the Sennheiser HD 530 I and II?  Maybe the drivers are the same and only the housings have some minor changes? The housing of the HD 530 II is very low quality in my opinion. They have used silver colored plastic rings to stabilize the thin housings...

I think he means that the HD 250 Pads ruin the sound character of the HD 540 Ref. II. Thats also something that I have discovered. So I would not recommend these, cause the Pleather on them is to stiff and to thick, so that the sound waves cant pass through them when compared to the original...

Thats an interesting point, because I have also try to wash my old HD 540 II velour pads. I mean now they are very clean , but they are still so flat and uncomfortable that you cant use them for over 30 minutes without hurting your ears. I am also not satisfied with the sound and that was the...

Thats what I did. I sold my Sennheiser HD 560 Ovation on Ebay for 200€ a month ago and bought instead of the HD 540 II and HD 530 II and there is still some money left. So it was a good deal I think. The HD 560 Ovation is somehow overhyped in Germany and everyone is paying a lot for them.  ...

Hello folks, first I have to apologize for my bad english, cause Iam from Germany (only had it a few years at school), but I hope you will somehow get what I try to say ;)   This Thread is very interesting for me, cause there is no comparable discussion in a German board for older Sennheiser...
