Quick question for you guys, where do you place your ears inside the cups of the 560?

I've got rather small ears, so I would suppose mine are inside the center of the pads. Pretty sure there's no set way. Just whatever sounds best to you.

That's the issue I've been having; whether to have the front of my ears touch the pad or the back of my ear touch the back of the pad. Both different sound signatures but I guess there's no set way

Hi,
new to this thread,
got these on my shortlist since today.
 
I plan to feed them with Audio GD Precision 2. 
Please what do you think about this pairing? Or general pairing with AGD gear (I trust AGD signature to be quite similar..)

Thanks, I loved that cartoon when I was growing up. On another note, got my custom cable for my 560's and the treble has been tamed quite a bit. Very noticeable difference from the stock cable.

Bombik how do you like your audiogd Precision 2?  I came close to buying one many times.. kind of wish I did instead of getting seperates
edit:  I mean using it for speakers mainly

I also grew up on Mad magazine (born in 1968). I was pretty good with the treble on the 560s, rarely was it an issue for me.

The treble was never really an issue for me either, it was an extra bonus. I've got custom cables on all my phones that have that option. Anyone interested there's a girl named Lauren on eBay. Her company is ela industries. Cable is 90.00 5-15 ft. Option all the same price. Very nice cables.
