Hello all,
I've been reading this thread with great interest - it's a brilliant source of info.
I've struggled enough with my AKG K702 - their sound profile simply doesn't work for me. Initially I planned to buy and mod some T50rp MK3, but that led me to the 1060... And I managed to score a really nice looking pair of 1060c from eBay at a great price, hopefully they're arriving tomorrow! Can't wait to try them.
The previous owner is including the standard backs as well as an open back kit he has in place. I'll experiment a bit over the next week and figure out whether I want to amend the sound profile any more.
I'm intrigued by fuzzor mod -- just last week I had my Yamaha MOX8 open to overhaul the keybed, and I used up a sheet of thin adhesive felt I had lying around to amend the action and dampen etc, so the fuzzor idea is right up my street!
It sounds like pretty much everyone replaces stock pads? If so, it seems my best options here in UK are
- Dekoni Elite Velour
- Brainwavz XL Micro Suede
Any advice on which would be better / the comparative change in sound with these two?
