I remember reading a post of Dsnuts and he said that the sound wasn't very good with the HM5 pads.

Yup, they fit, and are very comfy! The sound is looser than with the stock pads, and with some resonance, but you might not mind it. Might be worth a shot!

The sound definitely is not optimized with them, that's for sure.

^ Has anyone ever considered doing a duel detachable cable mod for these ATH WS99s??? Would be crazy if someone did it. Something like these HE-400s.  O.O
 

 
 

 
edit: the re-cable job would probably cost more than these cans. haha

 
or this.........

Hmmf, that won't work then I don't think I'd want to sacrifice sound that much. Thanks for the quick feedback though.
 
Back to the pad roll drawing board.

Holy CRAP!!! These things got here FAST!!! Literally less than 1 day.

 

 

 

 
!st impressions is WOW these are supposed to be "BASS" cans. Hot damn they sound well balanced!!! Nice extended treble w/o harshness/ sibilance with mids that just wraps around you and eats you up, combined with deep textured lows that makes you want mo'. These things are HOTNESS. And i didn't even burn them in yet, now i know how WAYNE felt when he 1st got them, they need burn-in??? LoL

They are smaller than i thought and is really light. Really comfy as well, the pads get a bit warm after some time but don't have any comfort issues with them. The pads are deep enough for me since my ears are medium size only so.......................... can't wait to burn these bad bois in and see how they will truly shine. HYPED!!!
 
The headband pad could be a bit more plush and thick since i can feel the metal band through it, which means there is not much padding.

Aha sf gets in on some AT action!. He couldn't resist. Glad these are catching on with you fellas. I am certain they will only pick up steam in popularity.. I mean you guys have them. You tell me.
 
That sound.. What not to like.
 
I only wish I can go to medical school with my WS99 pumping some Armin Van Burren. Lol. I am gonna come up with a medical term for WS99itus or the lack there of. Cuz that is what I'm suffering from..

 

[-xX-Mew-Xx-]

How much are they?

It's only a matter of time before this WS99s hype train really blows up since they are now available here in the states and maybe soon worldwide??? These are fantastic cans for sure, cuz the entire sonic spectrum is really forward without one bleeding into another. Despite these are labeled as "BASS" cans it's not dark whatsoever since the tight textured bass matches perfectly well with the sparkly mids as well as the nice extended, yet non harsh highs. Such a great cohesive and balanced sound, despite the lows still being emphasized. 

 
RESISTANCE IS INDEED FUTILE!!!

They can be bought for around $190-$210 depending on where you buy them from.. Which is a great deal for the sound these have.

I will be neck deep in books but will keep tabs on the train here. I know the thread is in very capable hands.
