thanks for the info!
 
do you have the part number by any chance?

 

[291079]

first impressions.
without burn-in, they sound real good for $25.
but... sooooo uncomfy.... hurts my ears so much. i feel like i have a clamp on my head.
i see why everyone talks about changing the pads

I wasn't really impressed with the stock pad's sound, changing it with bigger pad really help immensely.

so do you have to do the samething with the ws55 pads like the hm5 pad mod by using an o-ring to keep the pad seated more securely?
