Great work @antdroid ! Which pads are your favourite sound and comfort wise? I've been using the CALs, thinking about getting the Aviators too.

Thanks, ordered some for me too!

Hi guys, I need more foam tips for my er2xr. Is this the same one that comes with them? https://www.amazon.com/Etymotic-Research-ER38-14F-Replacement-Eartips/dp/B0078JXDRI I’m also having little luck keeping isolation with the triflanges. Opening my jaw loses bass and clenching teeth brings it...

I'd say the HD600-series came out victorious in terms of still continuing sales and high respect in the community. DT880 has made somewhat of a comeback (on these hp forums at least), K700-series not so much. Used to own K701 and found it simply inadequate in the bass department. Pretty looks...

From the get-go 2XR is different from 3 and 4 because it's one dynamic driver. I'm surprised how little this model gets coverage vs. the BA models. I don't want the mids and highs to be the only things upfront and worth mentioning. I need to have some lows too, maybe even a bit of a boost when...

Here's my initial views on ER2XR from an other forum, enjoy! _______________________________________________________________________ Etymotic ER2XR early views My journey to find a fulfilling, isolating and easy to use IEM has led to ER2XR - basically a dynamic Ety with some real bass and a...

Denon D2000 and Creative Aurvana Live meet my definition of fun headphones. Some V-shape in the signature, hefty bass and some extra sizzle up top.

HD800 + EQ, or just get Sonarworks True-fi - that will get you very close to "end-game" resolution and FR wise. If you totally need planar bass, you get planar, though.

I own a pair of late-2010 LCD-2.1 - is the Classic pretty close the same sound-wise? I've been thinking of trying one out but I'm thinking they'll be pretty similar. I bet comfort is way better, though.

Generally you need to pay more for good SQ with closed models, imo. Closed headphones tend to have more bass though, which might make them sound "better" for some. Anyhoo, it's much easier to design a good sounding hp, when sound is let through the back, without dealing with the closed cup...

So, here's a few pics with the CAL! pads.

I have two pairs of the V1 Momentums - haven't tried those yet. Those pads seem way thicker than the CAL pads from their looks. I'd think that larger ear-to-driver distance was the reason my (angled sheepskin) HM5 pads were so overblown in the bass dept.

My angled sheepskin HM5 pads colored the sound loads. The bass became overbearing to say the least. I'll see if I can snap some photos tomorrow.

So, here's my take after a week with the Creative Aurvana Live! pads - usurped from my own pair of CALs.. They're a real winner, a no-brainer - my Sines went from no use to all the use. They're semi over-ear with much softer pads that let the pair sit stably on my head, really great when on a...

I've had trouble with the stock pads for several years now, even though I've loved the sound these produce. SQ-wise these are best portable over-the-head hp I've yet heard (vs PM3, Momentum, QC35, CAL etc). The stock pads just don't isolate well enough to create a good seal. The volume goes up...
