What about the sound compared to the stock ones?
In all honestly I'm not sure. As soon as they arrived I replaced them. I didn't notice anything obvious, I certainly didn't notice or feel that the sound was any worse. I didn't want to swap them back and forth to hear the difference as they're a bit fiddly to remove with the small clips and swapping them back and forth could result in breaking one of the clips.
They do sound great still with the velour pads though - but now they're even way more comfier and sturdier on my head.
