Okay. If I would order today I'm looking at around €105 including shipment and taxes for lamskins perf. I think yes but can you confirm this is the same EU shops will charge?
They are off ZMF website so I am not sure what that means for my order.
Glad you found them. I couldn't yesterday.
I think you'll be very pleased with how they sound.Just received my suede pads for my HD6XX. I am so disappointed.........in myself for not ordering these sooner. I have not listened to them yet, but the build quality is really nice. Now for some Santana's greatest hits to evaluate the sound. I am certain they will be great.
They will be. And very comfortable too!Just received my suede pads for my HD6XX. I am so disappointed.........in myself for not ordering these sooner.

After a couple days (maybe 2-3 hours) of listening, I can say that these are a winner. I am a little curious about the perforated lambskin (my usual material preference) so I may try those too. In short: They do not detract in any way from the fundamental qualities that make the HD6XX legendary and add a touch of air/presence/clarity to the upper mids/lower treble. More importantly the soundstage is a touch wider, taller, deeper and much more cohesive. No more "three blob" or hard left, hard right and center with no blending. I have the HD560S here for direct comparison and I would say the soundstage is now better on my HD6XX. The icing on the cake is the much higher quality appearance, feel and likely longer life span of these pads. Great job @zach915m and team! These are the first aftermarket Sennheiser earpads that I have tried that don't ruin the sound.They will be. And very comfortable too!
From my own experience with the suede pads and from the graphs posted in this thread and elsewhere, they (suede and perforated lambskin) produce a sound very close to the stock pads, frequency response wise. Except for the solid lambskin which, from the measurements, seem to make the sound very bass emphasized, if not necessarily 'V' shaped.For my understanding, these pads make the HD6XX a tiny bit V-shape than stock pads???
