I bought two Dekoni pads, the Elite Hybrid and the Elite Fenestrated Sheepskin. Both have slow bouncing memory foam in them so they are softer and sculpt around my face better than the original pads. The original pads are very comfortable. Only when compared to the Dekoni pads the original feels a little stiff. The Edition XS doesn't sound as V shaped with the two Dekoni pads. The mids sound bigger. Perhaps the softer pads allow the driver to come closer to my ears. The bass on any of these pads is good. The Fenestrated has the best timbre for me. I think the highs get attenuated a bit, or the mids get boosted so the highs feel smoother in contrast. The slightly prominent cymbals and sibilant are not as airy and shrill anymore. The Hybrid and the original hybrid pads have similar timbre. My skin generally prefer the feel of velour over that of leather, but the Fenestrated Sheepskin doesn't feel too bad, plus they sound better than the Hybrid, so they get to stay on my Edition XS.
