I have SR-80's that came with bowl pads. When I first got them I was a bit disappointed. There was no bass, and they were pretty bright. On top of that, the bowl pads are fairly uncomfortable. I, too, went with the RS pads as a replacement for the bowls. They were much more comfortable and with the center hole mod they made the music less shrill but the bass was still pretty deficient. I then got the Sennheiser pads and modded them. All I can say is WOW! It's like listening to a completely different set of headphones. Highs are smoother without being rolled off, deeper bass without being muddy at all and better detail to the music (I'm listening to Shpongle right now and it sounds awesome, who says Grado can't do trance?). And the are just as comfortable if not more so that the RS pads. I got two pair of the Senn pads delivered for $10.78 and it was worth every cent. I Hope you get a chance to try them, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
