It looks like I acquired my Pro 60 with 3rd party pads applied to it.
And it turns out, having received a few pair today from Koss, that the HV/X pads are something more similar to a grado 'bowl' pad. A thick foam pad witha crimp in the center.

the great sound is possible because the contoured variable density earcushions are designed with an acoustic resistance to retain bass frequencies at the center, while allowing high and midrange frequencies to escape at the outer perimeters. This feature gives you the bass response of a closed type dynamic headset with the open and transparent sound throughout the midrange and highend. |
