I had originally bought the fenestrated sheepskin because they look and feel totally boss (and they work great on my old 580 precisions), but I found that the 600s sounded way too polite with them and much preferred the sound with the original velour pads. When I told, Tal Kocen (president of the company), I was unhappy and why, he suggested I try the hybrid pads instead, because his feedback was that the hybrid pads are the favorite for the HD-600. I think they have a great synergy - all the dynamic life is back and, to my ear, they now have a more open, resolving sound than with the stock pads. On top of that, I find the Dekoni pads are much more comfortable long term. To me they are a worthwhile way to spend ~$50, even if you don’t need new pads.
Good info. May have to try these pads. Thanks.
