I took the stock pads off and superglued the outer edges of the KTXPros driver enclosures (on outside out edge, not on the drivers themselves) and applied Yaxi Pads. And bent the headband outwards until I got a level of grip and long term comfort was granted. I plan on swapping new Yaxi pads once a year to these just to prevent bacteria build up a bit. Great headphone. It has it’s charm. Even compared with the KPH40’s which are also very great. I love the Porta Pro as well but sometimes miss the KTXPros sound when wearing them for a long while.
