Okay I've been using the 840 pads for a good 16 days and I can say without a doubt that there is a sound change. I could tell immediately when I changed the earpads because it has a similar effect to changing the EQ. Here I'll list some differences.   Sound with the stock M50 pads (Compared...

Quote: thanks for the response. I think the iPod classic does affect sound a bit still but I found a problem I was having was the EQ on the iPod was set to Bass Booster and iPhone was Flat. Set the EQ to Flat for iPod as well and it sounds much much better. I'm getting new earpads for...

Edit: I just got the 840 pads today. I'll tell my initial reactions here and maybe go into detail later. Okay first of all the comfort is amazing.

Quote: Do you listen to Memory Tapes? I love the album Seek Magic, and just by chance I found that the live drummer wears the M50's!!!! Haha, check it out!   http://pitchfork.com/tv/#/episode/2626-memory-tapes   You can hear more of the electronic emphasis in his studio versions...

You're going to love them, mine came in yesterday after lurkin around here and other websites and narrowed it down as best for the price. I got the coiled version and I love it! I let em play while I was sleeping last night and I'm convinced today that these are the 'phones that I had to get...
