Any D9200 owners would be willing to take off the pads and post a picture about the drivers?
An easy way to take off the pads (if it goes like with the D7200):
- put the thumb e.g. to 8 o'clock position to the outer edge of the pad (where one of the pad mounting holes is situated, the rest are at about 10, 2, 4 o'clock), and put the pointing finger inside the pads, on the opposite edge of the pad (actually the plastic mounting ring) from the inner side of the pads. You can pinch/lift the pads base now.
- pull the pointing finger to lift the pads from the inside edge, while pressing the thumb towards the cups for counter-pressure on the outside edge. The pads should just snap out easily in one go. It takes me this one single move and 2 seconds to take off the pads from the D7200.
For assembling, just mount the pads in one of the mounting holes, and click in the other side, then the 2 remaining flaps.
I have noticed with the D7200 that it sounds better with the D5200 pads, maybe it's similar with the D9200.
Anyway, the tuning of my D7200 pads is now finished (near-linear slightly downward FR slope, perfect for a closed headphone) and I fine-tuned 2 other pads if I wanted fun signature (V shape or big sound stage with more treble). It is waiting the D9200 for a comparison, which in my region will be available only in the beginning of December. Until then I wonder how do the D9200 drivers look like
