I've got 400-450 hours on my Verite so far... With my gear and for my tastes, I have preferred the Verite pads to the Universe pads. Today, I just fitted the suede Universe pads - first impressions besides the supreme comfort, less bloom in the bass compared to the leather Universe, tho I would have to do some proper A/B than rely on memory (I haven't run the original U pads for a long time). Have a set of BE pads coming too, will be interesting to hear how they change the sound.

what's the overall tonality like with the Suede Universe pads? I'm guessing it keeps the stage presentation of the leather universe while bringing up more air and presence in the treble without sounding peaky?
