Has anyone purchased the EL-8 Titanium in the past month or so?
The pair I received for reveiew - July 2016 build date - have an oval of thick damping felt inserted under the ear pad, in front of the driver.
This is in addition to the felt ring & thin fabric that's already part of the pad.
Looking through older photos in this thread, it appears that the original EL-8 closed (2015) and more recent EL-8 Titanium (see a few posts above this one) do not appear to have that damping material in there. Note how in the earlier pictures, you can see the fazor things through the ear pads.
Could it be that Audeze is still tuning the sound of these cans?
