Jesus, I can't imaging the anxiety I would have if I worried about sound quality this much. Kudos to you guys that have that good of an ear for this stuff.

It's wild just how much the sound signature of a pair of headphones changes when you replace the ear pads. Upgraded the pads on my Mezes to a nice set of velour pads and everything sounds much warmer and smoother.

This sounds made up, but I want to believe

It's not even one of those "subtle enough that it might just be my brain tricking me" things, the difference is obvious and immediately noticeable

Well that's a can of worms. Can't believe you're using Beats!

What's your price range in USD?

It's a cliche at this point but my answer is the ATH M50x. If you're coming from Beats, they're the best entry-level option. Great everyday closed-back headphones at an affordable price. There's a bluetooth version too.
