Fixing HD580/600 headband padding?
Mine are flat, so i'm looking to repair them since they're about $14 which seems a little expensive for padding. Any recommendations for padding material to use or anyone with similar experience, e.g. fixing up flat pads?- randomasdf

Thicker AKG pads?
I feel like this isn't the most ideal solution(blurry pic, sorry): Using old, dry vinyl pads + those costum pads + scotch tape. I tried using quite full/thick velour pads, but they didn't feel thick enough. This is actually quite a comfortable arrangement, and I might want to keep it...- randomasdf

Upgrade from Zero DAC?
I have a zero DAC/amp, and just bought a dedicated amp. I feel like I might as well upgrade my DAC as well, and sell off my zero. I think an external soundcard/DAC would be best for me (running off a lappy). I've been looking at the emu 0404, but I'm not really sure. My price range is ~$130ish...- randomasdf

Grilles and k240 sextetts?
I have MP sextetts, I think, and removable grilles. The grilles were pretty annoying, as they hurt my outer ear over time. I'm not too keen on destroying my grilles to regrille them, so I've just removed them entirely. How bad exactly is this for my passive drivers? I haven't heard them crinkle...- randomasdf

Ipod 6g LOD question
I'm trying to figure this out, but to much success. Most of what I've found is rather mixed and not exactly very resolute. Anyway, I have an ipod 6g, 80gb, and I notice a slight hiss or jitter of some sort in the background. This is definitely from the ipod, as it's not apparent with the same...- randomasdf

Upgrade from Zero dac/AMP
Hi, I want to upgrade to a better dac, preferably with a built in headamp. I've been looking at the emu 0404, and also GD compass(but it's expensive D=). I would like to set a limit at ~ $200.
