^ my favorite pairing!
They flat out lied... I have g cushions on my ps500 right now... Its a more spacious (closer to) neural sound... And super comfy...
+1 and then some.
Got my PS500s couple of weeks ago and was impressed right off the bat. Switched over to g-cush cups. Definite gain on the spaciousness, but lost that tight bass+low mids and became overly bright. On the plus side, smoothed out that 2KHz "in-your face" peak without loosing the presence.
Long story short, I ended up angling the drivers over my years by pulling the front edge of foam towards the metal part of the driver with electrical tape. Three pieces of tape with equal amount of pull at approximately 1, 3, and 5 o'clock on the cup seems to work great without compromising comfort.
The best part is that by varying amount of that pull-back you can control the angle and somewhat balance out the bass and treble to your liking. That really did it! The problem is damn tape keeps on unpealing from the foam, so I'm looking for another way to do this.
Anyone else here willing to try that and let me know if what they think?
BTW, my T1 hasn't had much head time lately as a result.
Also what amp are you using?
Yeah try sewing the ear pads to you lol
A warmer tube based amp is my recommendation with the G-cush
