  I have the pads on them that came preinstalled. Never felt the need to switch pads. Maybe I will eventually. I have the super thick pads on them. They are soft and comfortable enough for me. Don't know if they are the cowhide or lambskin to be honest.  hehe. 
 
 

Same here. Funny for a hobby that usually obsesses over minutiae.  I have not idea what mine are but they feel pretty good.  
 
Has any one tried bending the metal for a more custom fit?

Don't bend the metal (not that you can't try 

) - just extend the sliders out all the way and bend the headband, it's very malleable. 
 
The thicker stiffer leather is the cowhide.

I think I have the cowhide on them then. Do you have three sets of pads by any chance? Looking at some pictures I don't think I own the Lambskin.

Which wood did you get? Blackwood? with which finish?

Nevermind went back about  6 pages and found that it is red sandalwood. I did not see any exotic woods on the website so I did not know he had any available.

After much back and forth, I decided to go with another kind of wood. I do have to wait for the exotic stuff but get to  use this in the interim. It wasn't too late for me to switch cups but was shipped this one as a review piece. I am hoping for cocobolo!!! fingers crossed.

Wait so the exotic wood you received was not a bought headphone? But for reviews? That is cool looks fantastic from the picture you linked, am I understanding this correctly? Also what we're some of the differences in presentation to the blackwoods

I know you don't have them side by side, but your impressions compared to the blackwoods would be greatly appreciated.  I'm wondering if you'll notice ant difference at all?

 

[grizzlybeast]

Do you mean blackwood omnis or just the closed back blackwoods?

Everybody buy/stream/listen to the album All I Need from Pablo Nouvelle. To give you all a little taste, the opening track. So good on the Omni

Correct...

ughghg that will be a tough one... This is a hard wood like the blackwood so they will sound very similar. Also its porosity is probably similar too which would make it even harder for my memory, pretty much impossible.  As mentioned by Zach the differences are not so grand as reading them makes it seem. I will say that this one has incredible bass slam and good texture through out with an upper mid emphasis like the other.
