[QUOTE="Wietsche, post: 800833, member: 18941"] Awesome! Congrats! Now I also know who to ask for new stock pads later :) Fully agree with going for the stock pads. The DT770 Pro 80ohm black velour pads are not so comfortable as the DT990s. They are stiff and if the clamp of the headband is a bit tight it becomes uncomfortable quickly and creates pressure spots (for me at least). Shure 1540 pads fixes that, but you need to cut out the inner driver cover of the pad to make them open doughnuts like the stock pads to retain the sound. Else that dull muffled sound that was mentioned is there and no sparkles exist anymore... But for the Shure pads' price, using the stock pads and "bending" the headband to reduce clamp is probably a better fix.. I cannot justify or recommend buying Shure pads just for this mod. So my comments above is useless to most people :facepalm: [/QUOTE]
