500+ Head-Fier
So, if anyone is still following this thread..
the german maestro ear pads 41-6059 have arrived and they fit almost perfectly.
i prefer them over the stock pads and the brainwavs round 100mm.
here are comparison pics:
the lips of the gm-pads fit very well on the K245's mounting rim, because the inner diameter of the lip is almost identical to
the ones found on the stock-pads (81mm to 82mm). you can zoom in on the pictures below.
but having a little bigger outer diameter the pads do not sit 100% tight, though tight enough to not fall off. once on your head they do not move at all, even when walking around.
also are they not as 'baggy' as the brainwavz round 100mm. the pad-foam is much stiffer.
lastly here is proof that the gm pads do fully reveal the bass port vents (you should definitely get the dust cover (like on the right side) from
their site aswell, or use something else.. b/c the pads are unfortunately not very deep, but deeper than stockpads).
as already with the brainwavz pads, the bass gets better with the gm-pads aswell because of what Precaud explained about revealing the venting holes that reduce midbass.
They still have the ~5kHz issues, so i'll probably also try the damping mod soon.
