    How badly do I need to replace my velour pads?

    Best mouse ever made!   I took the foam inserts out but couldn't notice anything myself.  And yes, the pads are worth replacing.....new ones are much stiffer and the drivers will be further from your ears which improves bass response and separation.   I know they are crazy pricey though...

    SONY MDR-XB700 HEADPHONES, any reviews?
