I would have expected more. Sounding remains the same, that's what ever :)

I have a few cushions worn until I came here on the alternative.
The product images indicate yes to some really smooth earcups. In reality, small parts, however, are no longer as comfortable as one can interpret the image.

After a bit of fumbling, adjust the pad but quite good on the Koss. So far it is still neither slipped from the headphones.

The sound does not change, which is ever okay. Really audiophil the Koss are anyway not, but sometimes I feel like it :)
With the pads but I feel after 2-3 hours a pressure on the ear. He's just not as evenly distributed as the foam.

My conclusion therefore:
Visually definitely an appreciation. Comfort suffers (at least for me) but a little lower.
