I just recently picked up a pair of HIFIMAN Edition XS. I was looking for a little more bass over the HIFIMAN Sundara which I've been using for the past 2 years. I'm liking them so far but am noticing a squeak in the padding because of my glasses. Taking off my glasses removes this squeak completely so I know that's the problem (not with the audio).

Any advice on how to resolve this? I've seen the Dekoni pads but wasn't sure which one to go with or if I even should, since this will add another ~$100 to the cost, maybe I just look at the Anandas while in the return window? I'm mostly gaming with these and some music listening while working from home.

Aside from that, I'm using a TOPPING DX3 Pro+ is this sufficient for my use case? I'm new to higher end audio equipment and wasn't really looking to break the bank. I use the BT 5.1 feature for my OLED TV/Monitor setup for movies which is nice. USB for everything on the PC.
