I just replaced my hd650 drivers after 15 yrs of use. They were starting to break up on some low end hits. Also replaced the ear pads and headband. Listening right away they sound way brighter. I realize part of this is there is less proximity to may ears with the new pads. I assume they need some time to break in as well. How much time do new drivers need to break? Is the system 300R driver the same now as it was 15 yrs ago? Does sennheiser break in completed headphones? The speakers I use sell the replacement drivers pre broken in for many hours. Anyone have experience with hd 650 replacement drivers?
