Brainwavz 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

These are comfy, changes the sound though. Bass is reduced and soundstage has improved. It's worth the trade off. Now these feel like proper monitoring cans. They don't heat up like the stock ones. The velor quality is good for the price I'd say. Fit is good, again better than stock ones, stocks were too small for my ears. And they're way to easy to install unlike some people been saying. Took me like 8-10 seconds to put them on

Soft, comfortable, large, as good as the original. Lasted 1.5 years approx. before the leather started to disintegrate. Deducting 1 star for that, expecting it to last longer than that at this price point.

Impressions after 3 days of usage: Earpads are of very good quality. The material is thicker than what I expected, but it's fine. The OEM earpads of the 'xfree go' were really very thin and soft to the touch but because of that I think it wore off soon. But since these are thicker I expect them to last longer. The cushions are memory foam as advertised and the comfort is great even for long durations. FITMENT: I knew that these were larger for my Tribit xfree go, but I wanted to try them out since they looked so comfortable and I also couldn't find one for the right size for my headphones. For my unit I had to cut some portions of the earpad's "skirt" at the back in order for it to fit perfectly with the dimensions of the mounting disc of my headphones. So these are very large compared to the OEM ones, but I made them work out with some adjustments. DOES IT AFFECT SOUND QUALITY? It definitely altered the sound quality a bit which I noticed. When I had the OEM earpads, my ears would touch the speaker/driver since they were much smaller and shallower. But now the earpads go properly over my ears and there seems to be a gap between my ears and the speaker/driver. The side walls are also thick, there is a lot more room inside. So all of this had an effect on the sound signature. The lower frequencies have more emphasis now than the higher frequencies. When watching movies, the sound effects, gun shots and everything is loud, but the voices are minimized. So I have to always listen with three steps of higher volume than before. It is a minor change which over time one can get used to, but you will definitely notice at first. On the flip side, experience of listening to bassy music has improved. Now this is very specific to my particular headphones for which these earpads are not exactly meant for. But for someone who is not too picky about the sound altering ever so slightly these earpads can definitely be used to elongate the life span of a perfectly functioning headphones that just have worn out earpads. Especially if your headphones are amongst the list for which these earpads are actually made for.

Let's start with the price. You pay 1200 INR for something that is made up of regualar foam and synthetic leather on top. In my opinion, it shouldn't have cost any more than 500 INR. Heavily overpriced. But for the lack of options in the market, this probably is your only choice to revitalize your messed up premium headphones. Here's my view on the product itself... They deliver what they have promissed. This has no memory foam so keep that in mind. Cups are pretty big, huge infact, for my Crusher Wireless. This has it's own pros and cons. Pro is that it's easier to put on, on your headphones as compared to other options. Con is that now my sleek n slim premium headphone looks obnoxiously big. Cups are comfortable. I feel like I can wear them for 2-3 hours straight without feeling the fatigue. Can't really say anything about the sweat around your ear situation as the climate is rather cold right now. But I think this could be an issue during the Summer season. Your ears are probably going to sweat a lot in these cups. Finally, the sound quality... Passive noice cancelation is OK'ish. Not as good as the originals I had. But once the music is on, your brain cancels the outside noice automatically in a few seconds. My headphones sounds wonderful now that there are no gaping holes in the cups anymore. So yours would get back to their original glory as well. Final Verdict... Everything is acceptable, except the price. If there was any other cheaper option in the Market, I probably would have gone for that. Unfortunately, that was not the case. When you spend 10k on a headphone and your earcups goes down, you have to fix them up. Because once you get the taste of premium headphone sound quality, it gets very difficult to settle with cheaper options. Audiophiles, such as myself, would know what I am talking about. So here's my suggestion, if you have spent anything above 7k on your headphones, go for this product. It's ok to spend a little extra to get back that premium sound quality.

My ears felt heaven. Its very comfortable for some with big ears and wearing glasses. The SOUND QUALITY is NOT ALTERED. The sound volume is altered. So just crank it up a bit more and youre good to go.

Product is nice and comfortable it is properly fit without giving sweat after 4 hours it is big for my headphones but it’s great for people who like listening songs

I was frantically looking for a sophisticated replacement ear padding for my Nirvana 751 ANC and I am falling in love with this product. It gave a new fab look and feels like it brought back my ripped Boat headphones to life. The reviews some of my fellow users posted were much useful! Keep Boat-ing deer music lovers who feel stranded with ripped original ear pads! Here you go with the ultimate discovery!!! It was also quite easy to replace it within minutes! Blessing in disguise, but quite oversized yet comfy! I didn’t use adhesion. It stays in place. When the spatula kind of a tool is shown in picture, it was missing but a toothpick came in handy, to punch gentle holes to pierce through the small grooves and make the royal rexin sit comfortably onto the rim. It didn’t affect sound quality not is very big!

Yes, it's true that these will change the sound of your headphones. Quite drastically even. I used them on my 5 year old pair of ATH M20X's that I had lying around to get some use out of them. My old earpads were completely destroyed and good riddance cause they were awful in terms of comfort. Now, coming to these. Let's address the reason for which you will most likely buy these earpads (I am talking about the Velour ones BTW, amazon tends to mix all reviews even for completely different products). Comfort: These are OK. Best thing about them is that they are deep and thick. My ears don't touch the inside of the headphone which was my main gripe with the stock pads. However, if you have ever used Sennheisers before with their stock velour pads, these are certainly not like those. These have a strange quality in the fabric where the fibres dig into your skin. It gets quite irritating and scratchy very quickly. Coming to the change in sound quality let just say that you'll lose almost all mid bass and quite possibly sub bass as well but since my headphones don't have much sub bass to begin with I can't comment on that. There will be a sharp spike in the treble region. Needless to say if you like the sound of headphones with your stock pads then DON'T BUY THESE. I actually despised the sound of my headphones and that's why I stopped using them. The reason was there was a significant amount of bloat and muddiness due to an insane amount of mid bass and low mids. The result was that with the stock pads these headphones sounded muddy and almost all detail got lost. With the velour pads the inverse of this situation has become the problem. Since there is almost no mid bass to balance out the treble. The headphones have become shouty and sibilant. I can't wear them for more than 15-20 mins now. I do concede that this is partially my fault. You shouldn't deviate from the material used in your stock earpads because earpads are part of your headphone's stock tuning. There two ways that you can fix the issues that I was facing: Parametric Eq- Simply install equilizer APO (Windows) and import a custom auto eq profile from the internet or do it on your own by reducing the treble and upper mids and increasing the sub-bass (don't increase the mid bass too much, it's called the mud region for a reason). Physical dampening- If you want a more permanent solution you can put a dampener between the driver and the earpads. This is what I did. It will bring down the treble but won't bring back the bass. You can simply use tissue paper for this. Dekoni also makes some dampening foam you can buy but I haven't tried that. It's best to play around and have fun. There's no wrong way to go about this.
