I have apparently worn out the Grado pads and am wondering if there is a decent substitution for the stock pads that doesn't skew the sound. I do find the frequency balance to be fine, but the deepest lows seem to be a bit fudgey or compressed, slightly emphasized. There is nothing wrong with the rest of the frequency spectrum. I would like to enjoy these headphones more, which is why I am entering this query.
The pads from Grado are a little pricey for the durability factor in my opinion. i could live with the original pads if they aren't surpassed by another choice.

I bought a couple of crummy $7 head phones in the south Bronx convenience store for $7 for the ear pad....fit perfectly and threw away the head phone
Check out Dekoni. They have some aftermarket pads that help hold the csans on the head.

It should be noted that any change in earpad shape or earpad material will alter the "intended" tonal balance somewhat. Headphone earpads are the equivalent of "room acoustics" in a loudspeaker system.
Some say they prefer the sound of the aftermarket earpads over the stock ones, while others say that the stock earpads sound best.
Good point. After awhile, I went back and ordered new stock pads for the PS1000e. Turns out I like them better. The old stock ones were worn.
