    That sounds promising. I really like them from the waist up...

    Booooo headphone objectification.

    Kidding aside, They're not horrible for a ~$300 headphone except for the fact that the bottom end just about buries everything else underneath it.

    The worst things was that they sounded great with the original pads (those became "unglued"). The newer MKII and MKIII pads really pumped the bass. Made the V-Moda M100 sound like masters of restraint.

    EXACTLY. If these new pads are basically a rehash of the v1 tuning (which I didn't get to hear for myself but have heard many great things about) I'll probably hoard stock, haha. As it stands I can barely use the 99s now and not feel profoundly bleh.

    They work great for my cousin and her husband because they both wear severe Italian thick frame glasses. If you want to hear the original tuning break the seal.

    Haha, I do actually wear glasses when listening to them, but the frames are so slim they barely make a difference. Besides, not everyone can be bothered to wear glasses when using headphones, so the redesign is still good news IMO
