Will there be different pads available? Hoping for a hybrid pad which has a cloth material that touches the skin for better comfort. Krunker io

You guys really missed the chance to go for a white-on-black "panda" color scheme. Any plans for more colors/materials?

Will the boom mic have side tone? If not, can you add it in? Without side tone I find myself yelling at people.

USB DAC
My wife is assist teaching an in-person science class, kind’a avatar style, for the actual teacher, who had brain surgery and must remain remote, though in-school. The school was not setup for this hybrid config., and sound, well sucks... we lent him our PC37X but we need a simple, cheap, but still decent sq, USB DAC with hp&mic jacks to work with his laptop, not the school PC, need suggestions for this application - clear voice, budget <$50. Perhaps the Creative dongle?

STAX Headphone Amps
Does anyone know of any good headphone amps on DROP that would work well with STAX headphones, preferably under $1,000?

Need larger ear pads. Love Sennheiser. Thoughts on Focal Elex?
I have a set of Sennheiser HD-6XX and HIFIMAN HE-4XX. I can wear the HD-6XX a long time as they have an oval shaped ear pad. The circular pads on the HIFIMAN's are a bit small for my giant ears. I am considering buying the Focal Elex' but am unable to find specific size / dimensions of the inside of the earpad, as they are also circular. Any recommendations or experience similar to mine, I'd greatly appreciate your help.

Driver Panda utilizes a Planar Ribbon Driver. This driver type is a subset of planar magnetic drivers that utilizes a dual sided magnetic structure on a braced diaphragm to deliver a carefully-tuned, phase-correct sound. This driver technology has only been used in one series of headphones previously, the Oppo PM-1, PM-2, and PM-3.
Amp Feeding the Planar Ribbon Driver, you’ll find a discrete THX-AAA amplifier implementation designed by our team in collaboration with THX. This amplifier can drive Panda to comfortable listening volumes for everyone with headroom to spare. BT Chipset To handle the audio transfer + conversion, Panda features the Qualcomm QCC5124 chipset. Our implementation of this chipset supports LDAC, aptX, aptX HD, aptX adaptive, AAC, and SBC. DSP Panda’s sound is the result of passive acoustic tuning, there’s no DSP in Panda. Battery Battery life is 30+ hrs, with Quick Charge giving you 3+ hrs on 10 minutes of charge via USB-C. We’re in the midst of aligning our testing criteria with the market (is bose testing at 50% volume or 20%? is sony testing with ANC on full or half? etc), but we expect Panda to exceed the battery life of major ANC headsets. Isolation Panda is fully closed and designed for strong acoustic isolation. We’re waiting on the testing lab to confirm a db measurement, but subjectively, it’s on-par with deep-sitting IEM isolation. Compatibility Panda has a passive input, enabling use with external amplifiers and non-BT devices like the Nintendo Switch. Weight Despite the battery, amplifier, and heavy drivers, we’ve been able to keep Panda’s weight under 350g. Communication Panda features dual mics on the right earcup for effective communication and virtual assistants. Materials Materials are plastic (most of it, for weight) and cast aluminum (gimble arms, hinges, etc). Earpads are a plush foam wrapped in premium protein leather. The headband is a smooth rubber (lots of care has been taken to achieve the right level of "grip", it'll stay on your head, but wont pull out your hair) and we designed the geometry of the headphone so the weight is held by the earcups instead of the headband. Clamping force is less than a new HD6XX and more than a new K7XX, I'd call it "comfortable, but certain". Price Panda’s MSRP is $399.99 Launch Timing Panda will launch at the end of January (targeting the 27th right now, may change) and units will ship closer to summer ("summer" is a reasonable range, could be sooner, just depends on details we don't know today)
