I am having fun using my new (to me) K501's. I bought a set each of K601 and K701 pads based on my comparison of these with my brothers K601 headphones. Of course, I tried his pads on my phones, but don't tell him!
I will be doing some more critical listening over the next few weeks on this. I unfortunately have already picked a current favorite, but I do not want to reveal this until I have a better chance to compare them more. I can tell you my favorite IS NOT the stock K501 pads, which have received little ear time since the others arrived.
One final point with these cans is that they are startlingly good unamped on my iPod G3 Nano. I am VERY surprised that they are listenable at all. They far exceed my expectations in this regard.
