Just wanted to give an update in case it helps someone else. I mentioned previously that the cup screws were loose on my Masters, but I found that there was more to it. Not only were a few screws loose on one of the cups, but two screws on the other cup seemed like they were tight when they were not actually secured. Something was wrong with the screw threads or the threads on the cups where they didn't align properly. With that there was resistance when tightening them. I only noticed this after completely unscrewing the screws then attempting to tighten them again. The two screws seemed to get tight after only one or two turns, whereas all the other screws took about 10 turns to be secured. I applied more pressure to get those screws to tighten and my Masters improved to where they were supposed to be all along.
As of about a week ago I'm finally hearing the Masters sound that I hope everyone else in this thread has been hearing all along. With the Merino pads it's a concise bubble of sound, exceptionally balanced with a hint of warmth & well boosted bass on an otherwise neutral sound. Brilliant, and just plain enjoyable with every genre out there.

), a little buzz mrkt nothing more. Ultrasone is not a first product choice among customers. I have the impression that the brand is not entirely perceived as a competitor to producers such as Audeze, HiFiman or Meze. Only after a long search and after persuading others (in forum) to listen to Ultrasone headphones, customers find the sound they are looking for.
