My other mod after cable replacement - perforated pleather pads from aliexpress (arrived in 5 days from china! talking about pandemic delays? what the bonkers?!!). These are more spongy, memory pads. Rock still sounds amazing with these pads, there is maybe a tiny bit more rumble on lower end, slightly more weight on kicks, still great instruments separation, guitars crunchy, voices sounding very clear, depending on the mix, like here:
I keep raising windows volume bar, how good it sounds. Who else got perforated ones? Any difference for you?
Also a question, do you keep those foam rings inside? They just fell off while replacing, and wasn't bothered to put back in, hah.
I use two types of foam rings. The original black one and the new gray AKG rings, which are less denser and therefore they have clearer treble.

Recently I have ordered PCOCC cable, made in Japan. I'm curious about the sound.
