Hifiman Arya : pads make noise

[patoulol]

Hello. I just received the Arya.

And I have a problem. The pad rubs on the headband. And when I move my head it makes noise. Probably because of the bar of the glasses. Do you have this problem?

No one wanted to answer me. But I found the solution. I changed the pads! And no problem now.

How do you like them?

Perusing their measurements, I got to admit that they show the most unintuitive results I've seen from a pad change

It lowers everything below 1khz while also lowering almost everything below 2khz, making the graph seem odd. In practice, I expect them to perceptually boost the 1-2khz range, which is exactly what the Hifimans need for filling in the presence scoop. On sai's Squig, the result is more obvious, though, also showing a decrease in pinna and treble peaks that I find would be most welcome:

Listening, I must admit that I didn't remember any difference, yet my job is mastering. blindly impossible to know which pad I was listening to, it was my wife who made the change

The best possible outcome IMO: better comfort, same sound.
