im not sure my type of question so i just asking here.
i just bought AKG K 403, which uses foam type pad (and is kinda course to my ear). i do want to get 3rd party ear pad or something to change the pad to something like 'normal headphones' do (the doughnut style pad style??) and even prefer cloth or velour type than leather (or synthetic). i kinda hate using the foam pad...
curiously, i tried my Philips SHM7110 ear pad, obviously wont fit but barely fits loosely. using them and guess what?
the bass is boosted. AKG K 403 is known for underpowered low frequency but with my Philips ear pad, the sub bass boosts but this also alters mid and high as well (marginally).
*my Philips ear pad is not leather PU type, is more like basic fabric and sponge inside?? (not velour i would say)
back to my question, do ear pad sizes, types and shapes affect sounds?
and also, do you ever experiences alternative ear pads with your headphone?
