Just put superstar pads in slx brakes front and rear and the front is vibrating quite badly under hard braking. It's as though the pads are loose.
Any ideas?

Definitely had exactly this before. The pads were glazed so I rubbed them down on a stone/brick and bedded them in again. Job done.

Had this recently with new XT set-up, folk on here suggested bedding them in and that worked a treat. Find a long hill and brake all the way down it, repeat a couple of times if needed 8)
