Are you getting a good seal with the Momentums? If the pads are resting on your ears rather than your head, you will experience less 'detail/clarity'.
I'm new to headphones, and many have commented that there is no perfect headphone, and I'm beginning to see that may be the case.
Heres the pad and headphone. It seems that rubber lining thats supposed to go in the crack around the edges got best a little so it's hard to put back in. Any tips?
brown leather =)
The ends of the rubber part are bent a little so they don't seem to go in like at all.
Interesting comments about the MDR-1R and the Momentum. I had the 1R until I made the mistake of returning them for NC model which turned out to be a major mistake. So I returned the NC's today and had a chance to get the Momentum for a very good price and decided to take a chance on them. I find both headphones to be similar but different in key ways such as the Momentum being warmer and a bit more laid back. The 1R has slightly deeper bass but slightly less mid bass and a bit brighter upper mids.
The 1R is more comfortable but I find the Momentum to be very comfortable even though they are mostly on ear for me. I think the Momentum has a bit more isolation though and I find the overall build of the Momentum to be better and more portable. The cable is also more supple which is important where I live because of the cold which caused the 1R's cable to get very stiff.
I may decide to go back to the 1R in the end but I like them both. I will see how feel about the Momentum after a few days of use.
