You don't have to I know what sloppy is. Also, no disrespect, but your claims of the Composer being industrially built and well thought of is starting to unravel.
PS: What made you remove your ear pads 100 times? There must be something wrong with it.

In contrast to.....and....and.....and these at even higher prices
Only those who never had the composer in their hands or dont have it themselves and only speculate are unbelievable
(I have to test the.....that's why it's up and down)

Saying that it is worse with other brands is a really bad argument. It's also better with some other brands.
They are wonderful sounding headphones with a number of small mistakes in the design: Ears that stick out touch the foam, foam glued over the driver that isn't what I would call user friendly replaceable, doesn't fit small heads very well, and a little more clamp than I would like.
But yes the sound is really great, especially when you consider what else is available for a similar price.
Right.. so we'll just take your word for it that it's ok for AA to do sloppy because others are doing it too. I guess there's no defending piss poor job. Anyway, let's forget about the construction of the Composer and concentrate on how awesome it sounds.

Actually a very good argument, since the composer seems too expensive for some
As already mentioned, just put one or the other even higher-priced model next to it to the composer

Net fund - Inner workings of another expensive headphone.
What do you think of this quality of workmanship?
Also possible here in for $/€3000?
(I don't want to post the brand)
PS: My friend owns a CNC milling machine, he can certainly do a better job.
When I took off the earpads I noticed the foam covering the drivers is splitting and coming away from the glue. The same for both ears.
Do you think I should glue it back?
K812 was released in autumn 2013 and the product cycle is slowly coming to an end. The price is therefore also falling slightly. What's more, the original manufactory in Vienna has long since ceased to exist. I have no idea where the K812 (and its individual parts) is currently produced - but certainly no longer in Vienna!
I don't mind how thick in front of drivers is as long as it sounds good. But as a collector of Stax I have seen, what happens to foam after many years.
I don't know about the difference in quality of foams and if they all start crumbling after a certain time, but for sure, this aging is a well known problem for many headphones. At least they should be easy renewed befor it is too late.
My experience taught me - not only with headphones - allways to wait with new products until the childhood illnesses are eradicated.

Unfortunately only a select few models can do away with foam completely… even the K1000 has parts that age (that glue around the diaphragm if I remember correctly).
I guess no model is made for eternity. Which doesn’t mean that introducing additional problems for some cost benefit is a good idea. Think glued pads. Fixed cables — maybe a problem, but the solution introduces additional problem spots (connectors). Always a trade off.
Somehow I’m interested in the sound without that foam piece…
