Replacement Earpads for ATH M50X, M50BT, Steelseries Arctis, Pro Wireless & Stealth 600, HyperX Cloud, AKG, SHURE, Philips & Many More Headphones, Memory Foam Ear Pad Cushions, Black Oval

...some how, I wish I could remember the guy who recommended this, if you are out there my friend, I salute you; you are amazing... Okay, I have bought headphones in ear and outer ear headphones for years, I have a wish list, but for now I was looking for a good pair of everyday head phones, I found them, Sony DJ Style Headphones MDR-V55/BR (robust, simple, far better than inner ear headphones and good enough for all things, movies to music). Everything the reviewers said was true, two things I ignored, the length of the cord and the way the ear cups sit on your actual ear. So yes, it would be great to have more length, but the flat red cord is awesome (I can live with that), but what I couldn't live with is how sore the ear cartilage and general area around the ear got/gets when wearing the headphones, it is painful. I can usually put up with stuff, but it was not a joy to listen to good headphones with this sort of discomfort for long periods... Okay, so just as I thought, well, let's buy another set of headphones that do not sit directly on my ear, the genius I wish I could give credit to for showing me the link and video on youtube for 'Brainwavz replacement memory foam earpads came along... I was really nervous, because the Sony headphones were not on the list he was reviewing, because of the discomfort, I just took a chance, the price was worth the risk... I put on the replacement set today, and the first thing I said to myself, wa-what? This not only looks good, was easy to refit, (find a video on youtube, that's why I knew what to do), but it was amazing, the new look changed my headphones to look like an expensive pair of headphones... Just to check, I only put on one cup first, I then put them on my ear to compare the replacement and the original cup, it was ridiculous, the comfort level made me smile - GREAT CHOICE - really glad I took the risk... So as expected, I replaced both, so here is the review in short, if you want comfort, buy Brainwavz replacement memory foam ear-pads... They look amazing, it makes me wonder if this is all companies do to turn a lower priced head phone into a higher priced etc... Lastly, all my previous headphones after time flake and then you are left with cloth and foam that looks like a snake has shed his skin; so there will be no flaking on these... Brainwavz ear pads are designed for comfort and style, with the outer material made from high quality Protein PU Leather and the inner padding made from high grade memory foam. If you want to make good headphones better, do it; I am so happy I did... Headphone Compatability: Brainwavz HM5 AKG 701 Q701 Audio Technica ATH-M50 (and all other M50 sub models) Shure SRH 440 Koss DJ100 / DJ200 Takstar HI 2050 and Pro 80 Ultrasone HF 580 / SH 1 Pro / HFI 780 Sony MDR V6 / ZX 700 Fostex T50RP T50 M-Audio Q40 JVC S500S Memory Foam: All Brainwavz ear pads are constructed with high grade memory foam. Memory foam moulds beautifully to the shape of the head, creating a tight seal and a truly comfortable fit. When not in use the ear pads return to their original shape - maximum comfort and longer lasting.

TLDR: Love them. I have large ears (and head) they fit me perfectly. I would buy these again in a heart beat with out hesitation. Pros: Large. They go around my ear, making the entire pad a contact surface not creating a pressure point. There is no pressure on any part of my ear. Soft. The memory foam feels good, the pleather is high quality, and soft. Looks good (for the size). Increased Sound Stage. (drivers are further from your ear) Cons: Very slight loss of Bass. (drivers are further from your ear) Nothing the Manufacturer can do about that other than make the pads less thick... but then you're back in the same boat as the OEM pads... This bass drop was very very slight for me. Others have claimed ZERO bass. I didnt' have this issue. Honestly, it's barely noticeable for me. But I have large ears, and the pads are sealing well for me, so perhaps their heads are shaped differently and they aren't getting a good seal. Headphones fall off my head more easily.. ESP while looking down at my feet. (getting something out of a backpack for example) I ordered white. The material that allows it to attach to the headphone is an off white cream color. I wish it was the same color as the rest of the pad. It looks out of place. Other thoguhts: I'm already self conscious about wearing these headphones around (ATX M50x) because of the size. I feel like people look at me and think "what is this guy wearing"... well these pads just make that worse. They are absolutely HUGE now. I have custom IEMs that I wear when i'm out and about mainly because of sound isolation and looks. I prefer the sound of over ear headphones over IEMs but if you're wearing these around a lot then it may be something to consider... maybe I shouldn't care what others think. I had them on for about 4 hours straight the first day I got them with very little ear fatigue. After an hour break, had another 3 hour session and my ears weren't hurting. I've worn them about 5-6 hours a day for a week and it's amazing how improved the comfort is. I couldn't wear the headphones (ATH M50x) for more than 2 hours before with out my ears hurting and me constantly adjusting the headphones trying to relieve pressure points. Now I have no issues. The attached photos use my 15" RMBP for a size reference, as well as the carrying bag included with my ATH-M50x.

Easy to slip onto the M50X's that I have, they're quite soft and the cushion outer material seem of high quality and should hopefully last a while without deteriorating badly.

Bought these for my AKG K371's because my ears hit the drivers with the stock pads, making them slightly uncomfortable after long sessions. Fitting: Fitting them is somewhat trickier than my last set of headphones. These are quite tight to get into the groove on the K371s since the earcups are large and the groove is pretty deep, so they have to stretch a bit to get over the lip. The trick I used based on another review was to get them in on the bottom edge and use a guitar pick to feed the edge of the pad into the groove. Getting the final part in was fairly scary since I had to pull the pad quite hard to get it in position, but these things are fairly stretchy. Just be careful with the foam backing and take it slowly. Overall it probably took 10-15 minutes. Harder than swapping the pads on my M50X but not bad. Once pushed on, these fit well and look good. Since the fit is so tight, there is very little movement. The pads can be rotated a little bit, but not without effort. They definitely are not at risk of falling out. They're a lot deeper and wider than the stock pads so the whole package doesn't look quite so sleek, but that's a tiny price to pay for the comfort. Comfort: My ears no longer touch the drivers so I am happy. They're very soft and very large. If you also have issues with the depth of the stock pads these may help you too. I've worn them for about 6 hours in one sitting with no discomfort. Audio: I have not noticed any massive difference. I don't think I would be able to tell them apart unless I had two sets side by side to try simultaneously. The headphones still sound fantastic with these pads. Your mileage may vary if you're more experienced or sensitive to this sort of thing. The K371s are highly dependent on a good seal. With these, I found it slightly improved. I didn't have major problems with the stock pads in the first place, but found they lost seal if I yawned or turned my head at certain angles. These don't have that issue at all. The increased depth of these gives them a slightly wider soundstage so that's another plus. Conclusion: Overall, these work nicely on the K371. Sound quality is still great, and comfort is massively improved.

Gekocht om de stock pads van mijn hyperx cloud alpha te vervangen en het is vele malen beter. Lekker zacht en comfortabel.

Well, I had bought a pair of these in black and red to go on my HyperX Cloud Alpha headset about 2 years ago when I first received the headset, and they have only just recently started showing any form of ware. Naturally, when I replaced that headset with my now in use SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless - I felt I needed to replace the earpads that I got with them again as they were uncomfortable for me (I have a rather large head and the earcups that SteelSeries provided seemed good, but in practice were very uncomfortable) I came back to Brainwavz and not only did it surprise me slightly that they fit, the comfort is SO much better than the provided earpads! They cancel out the majority of the noise around you, are super comfortable and with a better fit around the ear, provide a boost in sound quality! My only wish was that the trim of these blue earpads was black, similar to how the dark red and black ones I had prior were! I loved these and the headset so much I planned my future PC build around the colour scheme! White, dark blue, dark/matte silver, and black!

He comprado estas almohadillas para mis Audiotechnica MSR-7 porque despues de usar los cascos tras varias horas de uso (5+ horas) se me empezaban a claver en las orejas y a hacer daño, he comprado estos para intentar evitar esto, y tras un par de dias de uso puedo decir lo sieguiente sobre estas almohadillas: Son mas gruesas, por lo que tus orejas tienen mas sitio. Te aislan mucho mas del exterior. El sonido cambia, desde mi percepción, los graves se reducen un poco y se acentuan los agudos, dando un sonido mucho mas nitido pero menos potente en la parte mas grave de la onda, por lo que si nos gustan graves muy marcados, tendremos que modificar un poco el equalizador de nuestro dispositivo u optar por la versión avierta de estas almohadillas. En conclusion: Valen los 22€ que cuestan, te dan mayor comodidad y mas inmersión en lo que estés escuchando, mucha mas sensacion de sonido 3D, pero hay que tocar un poco el ecualizador para que mantengan el sonido de las almohadillas originales.
