No. Those are aftermarket pads. If you took a few seconds to look it up, you would know that. XD

It was not noted in the post, and I tried to see if stock were the same size? They look angled right? So how would you explain differences between them and HD650?

Edit:


Looks like original pads not angled.

I thought that photo was taken from grizzlybeast's review where he mentions that those pads are Alpha Dog pads. Anyway, there is Google Images and other sites where you can look up how stock pads look.
 
I'm too lazy to write a review for you. Ask specific questions and I might provide specific answers.

Really cool album!
Too bad the band is pretty much dead...
I live only like one hour away from these guys...should drive over and yell at them to make a new album already.

Speaking of local bands that nobody knows:



Has some neat riffs.

You share so much stuff, and I'm sure it's awesome, but...I'm too busy watching My Little Pony to listen.

They're one of my favorite black metal bands

. Only now I see that you're from Germany, my most favorite country by music. If you go visit them, tell them my regards too. But don't tell them that my copy of their album is downloaded.
Speaking of inactivity, what happened to Odroerir + Menhir ?! Also amazing guys that I haven't heard from for soooooo long time...... Shame

  @@@@@@@@''I really appreciated the little debate about the size of peoples collections and whether we have too much music.
Another topic that interests me is how people decide what to play during the day.when you have 20k plus cds etc it gets a bit crazy.
I create random playlists and listen to them through speakers.if i hit a track i like i then research the band and i will earmark the full album for a listen.I will also listen to full cds through speakers if they are good.
If listening through headphones the music has to be excellent otherwise it does not engage me at all and i get bored.
I should mention that when listening through speakers if i dont like a random track i delete it and move on.in my opinion life is too short to listen to stuff that is average.Over to you guys now

Some of the collections posters here own are mind boggling to me. I can't imagine 20K CDs. Totally impressed with that. I've got maybe 1K. One thing new for me is making playlists with some streamed songs mixed in with my own music.
 
I definitely feel the need to revisit older music as newer music gets more attention. Generally, I feel pulled five directions and want to hear more than I can possibly get to.
 
Guess I separate it out with digitized music in lists for either my Ipod or Sonos and CD listening that I listen to more thoroughly. Meaning when I really want to sit down and give something my full attention, it tends to be a CD-grab a beer, sit at the PC, chill and listen to a couple of CDs at the end of the day.
 
On the digital front, I tend to put everything I've bought in the last year into a  list and have another list that's stuff from the last 2-3 years. And, rotate it out after a year or two.
 
And, then I'll keep a couple of oddball lists like lighter/more mellow music (jazz/folk/soundtracks) and rock/folk/blues to round out my heavy rotation.
 
Since I can store everything in one place on my NAS with Sonos, sometimes, I'll just play a few tracks randomly from my entire music collection-surprise me! I'm often amazed at something I'd damn near forgot I had!

Check this out. Can a couple of you listen and provide some feedback please? My brother got his demo finished. I'm not sure how to classify it as I dislike subgenres. Maybe some Lamb of God and Devildriver influence???

The beauty of digital! The software can easily create a random list, even really obscure ones

So I can select a random album of black metal, from the USA, between 2004-2010, that I've never played before...or get the software to choose an album that is similar to one I just listened to, based on any criteria I want (mood, tempo, sub genre, similar artist, etc)

Often I'll just "play a random album from any genre that hasn't been played before" and deal with the results

New track from the upcoming debut second album of Lychgate:



I'm really looking forward to this album!
Some of the best Avant-Garde Black Metal I've ever heard.
I hope I can manage to grab one of the vinyls when the pre-order goes live :|
Here is the first track they released a while ago:
