I imagine you must have good ears to hear a 9ohm difference, but then I've never measured any of mine so I'm not sure what I'd be listening out for!
Yes, I can see that plastic part in mine, I guess its doing the same job as the one in the HD800s? My ref II's came with quite new looking inner foams, and original velour pads; the outer materials are in good shape, but the foam inside is as flat as a pancake.
Very interesting that the fabric earpads are more spacial and detailed, but a shame that they have their tradeoffs. And yes, I definitely agree that being able to listen to headphones for an extended period of time is preferable to a short but painful experience.
Its interesting, I've been reading posts from the last couple of years on this thread and a lot seems to be said for pleather earpads.
I picked up something very similar looking to these for my HD520's, but with a different fitting... I'm wondering if these would be a good alternative to the HD430 or wang pleather pads, if you or anyone else have tried these?
