Really? There's no noticeable difference in sound between velours and pleathers? Thanks for the tip, I saw someone selling their HM5 pads and hot glue gun kit for "T50 pad mod" and figured it would be more involved than just stretching them out.

That my opinion keep in mind
As I have read others do hear a difference
Also I did ruin one of the hm5 pads putting it on
And I didn't do a lot of critical listening
As I found them uncomfortably sweaty to wear
Just my opinion...

Also I'd look for some good double stick tape
Before hot glueing

The Mayflower version 3 of the T50RP's uses the original HM5 pads and they don't stretch them over the cup. If you look closely at the pictures of them they have the HM5 pad attached to the baffle face. I can assure you the New HM5 pads will not fit the T50RP's without a great chance of destroying the back.

I'd like to try the 940 Velours as well but I think it might alter the sound too much...

If I had to guess, they would suck the bass straight out of them.

Anybody have any suggestions for the HE-300's? I'm considering the Focuspads or Focuspads-A.

Do someone know where can I find Sony MDR SA-5000 and Stax  O2 earpads ?

Too bad about the destruction, but the Alpha's are supposed to be the best, post a pic or two when you get them so we can all drool...

Would you know if the LCD-3 pads fit a D7k?

Dun think so, lcdpads are slightly bigger...it will fit the k550 though...

SILK BENEFITS

http://www.senature.com/sensemagazine/science/silk-benefits-1048.html
 

• 100% Natural. Silk is a nature-based fabric that’s inherently soft and light, helping you breathe better at night.
• Allergy Shield. Due to its protein structure silk is a uniquely hypo-allergenic material. It effectively decreases problems caused by airborne or mite-related allergens and bacteria. The result is a clean and healthy sleeping environment.
• Luxury with substance. Silk provides real luxury that does not go away (remember those high-end chocolates?) and instead continues to provide value with its smoothness and pleasurable skin sensations.
• A healthy cocoon. The extremely fine and lustrous long fibres (seriously, each thread of raw silk ranges from 300 to about 900 meters) help regulate and stabilise body temperature. When overheating and sweating are reduced to a minimum, this results in a healthier and more rested deep sleep.
• Makes the skin happy.  Naturally-forming moisture is absorbed without the material feeling damp during the night. Amino acids in silk act as counter-agents to delay wrinkling in the skin as well as being good for the hair.

Silk can get very slimy when it gets sweat on it...

If you end up getting very little bass out of them with SRH940 pads, reconfigure your headphone for loads of bass, I forgot which mod(s) do that.
