After 1 year it's kinda amazing in a bad way how they reach that state but to be fair, I never owned a pair of headphones or headsets with leather pads or similar material that would last very long. I never bough really expensive ones but even then the last one I bough was almost worst than that after 2 years +/-

I wouldn't believe it either if I didn't hear the difference when I put one on top of my vinyl record while it was playing! The veil was lifted and I started hearing residual infrasound frequencies from the birth of the known (and unknown) universe!! Now sure, I could be biased but even my wife could hear the difference from three air tight nuclear blast doors away!!!

I suggest applying Oratory’s EQ settings for Sundara using something like Peace EQ program. Modify the bass to your liking and this will probably give you the maximum potential that can be extracted from the Sundara.

If you still yearn for more, then don’t bother with middling sidegrades like 6xx, Ananda, Elex, etc. Look into the $1200+ headphones like the HD800s, Arya, Clear… but don’t buy before you try.
