Input:
Bought the exact same model that I loved so much (my old HD-280s circa 2005 were taped up and falling apart). Then I hardly used these after buying the replacements because the "new" version of this model was so inferior. The sound is still good, but the comfort level was greatly reduced. The previous version of HD-280s had really soft earfoams and were enormously comfortable over hours of use. These feel tight and constricting. I don't know what they did, but I would have paid more to keep the prior quality. I'm guessing the new material was a cost issue. p.s. I still use these because the sound is good
