If you don't have isolation issues go for the 435 S.

The custom pads are cool, and on the warm side. I like the Ear Pad 41-6050, bigger sound stage and super detailed with a good depth, more analytical compare to the custom pads. If you are going for the velvet pads, go for the 41-6085 they make the sound super flat, a nice experience.

For the 250 you'll need some amp or a minimum sound card, the 8.3000D are 300 ohm so, you'll need something to drive.
The 435 and the 8.35 are 35 ohm, no amp it's necessary, I mean amp and dac sure will help, but you can add them letter if needed.

1. I'm using the oval pads, Ear Pad 41-6050: Ear Pad 41-6050 - GermanMAESTRO Shop
3. Yes, if you like open design.
5. Both are great with the stock pads, the 8.35 are more warm on the bass side.

Just keep in mind...they are very very natural, no gimmicks here.

Would 8.35D sound like 435 S/250 or better with Ear Pads you are using ?

Both models sounds close but they are not the same, the 435 sound very open and some times you can forget that you have headphones on your head.

The 8.35 with the custom pads sounds like a very good sound system in a club. With the newer pads the oval ones, sounds like in acoustic studio flat FR but still great highs with a better sound stage and punchy bass.

What sort of amps are you guys using with 435S and the 8.35? Im looking at either a starving student or a headroom micro amp; not sure which would go best with these.

If you're using your computer, external a sound card/DAC will improve the sound quality and will give you a little more power to drive them, but you also can connect them directly to your computer for a start point.
