Probably about three or four years ago they went to the new ear pieces.
If you got yours two months ago and you have the deep pads instead of
thin flat ones with no hole in the center, call Grado.

Grado sold these models with 3 different pads. The oldest ones had your
ears closer to the drivers, and as a result they had less top end,
which was damn nice for any headphone imo.

Then they went to a thicker one that angled into the center hole - both
of these iterations had holes. The second one made the headphone sound
brighter, which I didn't like, but hey, who listens to me except my
kids ;

The ones they ship now, as Scott said, no longer have a hole. And they
are more comfortable and they sound like the second version. Call Grado
and get a pair and try em out. The earpads are cheap and Grado is damn
nice folks.
