Who loves their R10?

Hi Jim here,

I am a relatively new owner of a pair of MDR-R10s. I had one pair modified for balanced cable/connections. What might be of interest to the owner's community is the resource I used for the conversion and replacement earpad manufacture. That company is Vesper Audio, vesperaudio.com. They modified one pair for balanced inputs and repaired both for old foam and earpads. I had several earpad versions made to test materials/fit. The last pair of earpads closely matched the originals. I will post photos later. Vesper Audio is easy to deal with and reasonably priced.

Hi, yes they can make and replace the inner foam rings. Depends on cable quality and connectors selected for the cost. Contact them directly for an estimate. Winslow

Lately I bought Sony MDR-R10
Very good condition... serial number 213 Bass Light.
I also bought new pads for R10 in VesperAudio... Thanks for the information.
Short period of listening with my dac amp, I prefer R10 over my other headphones that i own ...edited ... I guess it’s more neutral sounding headphones.
It was my dream to listen R10 since 2010
Now finally I achieved it )
Awesome cans thanks for watching.

Hi, anyone knows who is the Sony engineer behind the R10?

Koji Nageno I assume.
