Are you certain that it won't be harmful to the pads in the long term as they are not actually leather, but.. pleather?

I've used the same conditioner on my dining room chairs (that have pleather seats) for the last 6 years and it keeps the cushions from drying out and cracking.

Would someone be kind enough to give me a quick rundown of the top most commonly used alternate pads (aside from Audeze Vegans) that most people seem to agree enhance rather than detract from the stock sound? I've got some M1060 V2s on the way to me and would like to pick up a few sets of alt pads but am not sure what all's been tried and found beneficial. Thanks

For custom designed pads visit our site (google my nickname). We had many orders for m1060 pads last months. Hope there were headfiers among customers and someone will share impressions here.

I've had some more time to take in these cans with fazor, rear grill, and pad mod.

It's amazing.

I did not try the mods individually, so I'm not sure which one did the most for the sound.

When I wrote about my first impressions I was being conservative. I didn't want to be too influenced by the placebo effect.

The more I wear them, the more I'm starting to hear details I haven't heard in the prior ~20-30 hours, and actually haven't heard in any of my prior cans (Shure SE215, Beyer DT770, Senn HD598). I'm finally hearing the "expansive reverb" I liked in the SE215 and HD598. I'm hearing a lot more space between the details that was flat before. I'm hearing more clear sparkle where there was harshness before.

There is one downside, I have found a handful of recordings so far that sound a little too warm, for example Daft Punk - Random Access Memories. Although certain details don't have that excessive warmth, so I suspect maybe I'm hearing the warmth they intended all along...?

Prior to doing the mods, I eq'd the bass to be louder up to 77hz because I thought, "even if I don't like these cans for everything, at least they have good bass". Since doing the mods I mostly listen to them without eq, except for certain genres. Even when flattening the eq, Daft Punk - RAM seems too warm, but maybe I just need to get used to it.

I might be interested in trying out some nicer ear pads in a couple months. I don't love the Velpad I'm using now.

There is a typo on your site: https://vesperaudio.com/earpads "frienfly" should be "friendly".

Ok, I elaborated on this a little bit more in the LCD-2 impressions thread, but I finally received my LCD-2 back from Audeze. I'll be doing a direct comparison between them and the M1060 for everyone, so if anyone has any SPECIFIC questions they would like answered, I'd be more than happy to do so for them.

Here's a photo of the LCD-2:

I’d just like to know your overall impressions between the two. More specifically if they were retailed the same, which do you prefer and why? I’ve always been very interested in the LCD-2 but have never pulled the trigger. I’ve been very pleased with my modded M106 for half the price, even with the substantial cost “to my preferred” pad swap ($80) some nice tubes and a little EQ’ing....oh and a little circle of Bounty paper towel.

Initial impressions are: LCD-2 has similar sound signature, but with more detail, tighter but more present bass. Can't tell just yet, but will update as I listen more. Things are looking good in favor of the LCD-2.

Just got my m1060 v2 in yesterday and loving it so far. I love my m560 and love the m1060.

 

[fpantalone]

I'm wondering if, and how many of you have bought these pads, and how you like them. Thanks ....

Zeos let it slip that there's another rev of the M1060 coming out.

Start at about 9:40, into the youtube video:

I don't think there is a revision 3 on the way. I think he is still using a revision 1 and I think Monoprice promised to send him a revision 2. I could be wrong, though.

He has the first revision, so is it not possible he's talking about the rev.2?

 

[lgcubana]

In retrospect, you could be correct. Just seems like an extended amount of time, for MP to be only now sending him a rev. 2

Didn't he already compare V1 vs. V2?
