The hybrid pads are the closest to Harman as well as to the AC with suede pads. Protein is more mid bassy, the hybrid a little more sub-bassy, just speaking measurements here.Damn! The Hybrid Pads really are where it's at! I just put on some Electronica and the sound is incredible.
The imaging is tighter and more defined and the sound really did open up. I am hearing a somewhat "baby" version of the AC now, and this headphone is flat out incredible.
I think my beloved Atticus are going to be getting much less play time, now that the Bokeh is around. The Bokeh takes fun to another level, and is very capable and scales extremely well.
And yes I know some people are waiting for measurements, I'll have those up later today/tomorrow along with my video stuff that shows the same.
The Limba sets are in the 475-495 range. I contemplated doing a magnesium version, but the cost to weight ratio wasn't worth it for the very slight weight reduction. If we ever try to make headphones cheaper, we may experiment with alternate and even lighter materials, but for me they are comfortable at this weight and the longevity of the headphone via the parts being made with the highest quality materials out-weighs the gain to be had from the cheaper/lighter materials.My Cherry set weighs in at 528g
