Wow you have the W10VTG a 20 year old head phone.



Yes, love woodys and especially the ATH-W.... series and also my little beauties EW9 / ESW9LTD / 10JPN / 11LTD :wink:        ....the W1000z is on the way, one less on my list.




But, actually the Fostex/Denon series steal my time :darthsmile:  ...also TH-x00 PH and E-MU coming soon.








...and the rest of my crazy journey , but only my full size woodys, ...Hifiman, AKG, and Co. sleeping in their boxes.

:beerchug:

WOW OMG that is amazing collection!

Well, I made some adjustments on the cotton I put inside the cups cause higher midrange and treble were a bit too much for my liking, to bring out more body on lower midrange and keep the airier presentation.
Now it's radioactive style

  Kind of ugly, I concede it but my ears don't have eyes!

I am just surprised you can pull the tight leather pads off!

Some new over-ear pads.
Better isolation, more immersive soundstage. 
All the frequency spectrum is highlighten, since it's formerly on-ear pads, I may have to readjust cotton inside to my liking but too lazy right now...
 
Thanks @Vesperaudio , very good quality leather!

I tried emailing and messaging vesperaudio but I didn't get any replies regarding the earpad upgrades. So instead I bought larger full leather earpads from amazon, cut a couple piece of plastic, and use it as a stepping ring to fit the larger ear pads. Overall, it's great and the change is very noticeable both in sound and comfort.FullSizeRender 18.jpg FullSizeRender 16.jpg FullSizeRender 17.jpg
