Enough bass for most, yeah, but lacking real low-end weight. Also, curious what your listening levels are like; cranking up on my old RS1s triggered pain after a while.

My average listening level is 66 db, max 76 db. :)

Ahh. That'd explain it (I'm a 70-80 or so dB, give or take, but definitely not above 80). The sound profile does lend itself to low-SPL listening.

Modi Multibit>Vali2 (stock tube) > SR325i, was initially afraid harsh treble since coming from HD600 but did not find much harshness at all.

One thing that really bad is stock earpad. I have to take it off every 20~30 mins and put back on after quick break. Will try different pads..

I occasionally listen to my SR225i. I agree with you about the poor pads, especially with glasses. Too bad because the headphones are fun with rock and metal.

L-cush pads should be labeled a a torture device. Wear them for more then an hour, and the tears will flow...

I could never truly get in to my HF-2s because of them.

I hate the L-Cushes. Had an aftermarket cheapo dome/flat hybrid that sounded nicer (to me) than stock, and was less prone to disintegration. More body in sound and much more comfortable too.

@Lyer25 Are you referring this one? https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-f5492581a80a8f7a12e1e5ca8fe3ebde.webp

if so, that pad is not easy to source somehow. I might need to make one from 3rd party foam pad by apply coin mod and cut off edges a bit.. :)

Just got G pad and comfort drastically improved. Now I can let torture pad go...

Agh, just saw these, sorry. Anyway, nah, not the TTVJ flats. Will look for a link, but they're a great deal softer than L cush but are somewhat bowl shaped still.

And yep. G cushes do feel great compared to the Ls, but they don't do so hot with glasses.

Found a pic I took for my RS1 listing way back. These are the pads I was referring to:

Think you can just get them off eBay or wherever. Seriously good comfort vs stock.

@Lyer25 Thank you for the pic. I just searched on eBay and could not find it. it looks like fat version of L cushion. :)

They're really inexpensive. Could send you a pair (or just a link) if I come across them again, would be cool to see if your impressions align with mine and all :))
