yeah perhaps true. I'm just not sure which one I would get for the Noire.

What do you mean by badly shaped?

some of the reviews on the Dekoni site have said that. But maybe they have fixed that issue by now.

I have thought of getting the Dekoni version. I have Dekoni pads for my Sennheiser HD6 series and they are way better than the stock pads. So I am curious about the Dekoni Aeon pads.

So would I be wasting money by getting new ones? I don't want the same issue happening again. I can't afford to keep buying new pads.

I asked about whether or not the pads have been updated and I didn't get a response to that specific question.

So it seems I will have to order new pads. I'm outside of the transferable warranty period. Just to confirm though I should get the Aeon perforated pads for the Noire right?

You put Caldera suede ultra-perf pads on the Aeolus?

This definitely gives me envy right now. That looks amazing. What is the silver one beside it?

I think I'm the opposite. But more so with respect to the mid range. I think I prefer my 650/6XX over the 660S2. On the S2 I find the mids to be forward in a way that seems shouty whereas my 6XX seems more balanced. I may end up selling my 660S2. I don't need three HD6 series headphones (also...

How do yo know if it's the updated version? Edit: So I just emailed DCA using their "info" contact email. Hopefully I get a reply back. I also asked them if they could send me one of the foam no notch filter pads. My set was missing one when I received it.

As a fellow Canuck I'm not surprised. The cost of everything here is outrageous.

I don't mean just the ear pads. It's the headband pad also. All the pads are basically like I have rocks on my head. I really think Sennheiser should have changed their pad design and materials to a much more comfortable option. I'm sure they could have figured out how to do that without...

So while swapping pads on my 660S2 I inadvertently pressed on the outside grill. Now it is indented a bit. How can I remove the grill so I can push out the indent?

How long do the pads take to break in? It's been quite a while since I had a new set of HD6 series. What ever foam is being used is quite firm. Makes these almost uncomfortable to wear.
