Incredibly low prices on HM5 pads (all of them- pleather, velour, angled, hybrid, etc.) as well as some IEMs.
HM5 pleather - $16.50 (usually $22.50)
HM5 Velour - $16.50 (usually $22.50)
HM5 Angled Pleather - $22.50 (usually $27.50 or $29.50)
Brainwavz S0 IEMs - $19.99 (usually $45.00)
Angled Hybrid pads - $25.00 (usually $29.50 or $37.50)
I have the m50, so no detachable cord, and they are still treating me well to this day. I eventually upgraded and my new set has velour ear pads, which are awesome. Even though my m50s don't get as much use anymore, I got some replacement pads for them and it was like getting a whole new set of headphones. So much comfier, no more getting sweaty by wearing them too long, and they have a slightly improved soundstage imo by adding these new pads. Might be worth checking out, they're only $20 right now.
velour ear pads for ATH-M50X
Obligatory have these headphones, AMA.
I replaced the ear pads with hm5 velour pads, (got them when they were like half off) no modifications required (once the stock earpads are removed, they can’t be reused, just a warning)
I believe that he was talking about these: http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
They are solid, but just be aware, that Z only recommends those with different ear pads. https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO. It's an extra expense (only $20) but it might put you out of budget.
​
Also, you will want to eventually save up for an amp/dac combo unless you have a great motherboard. Most motherboards will be able to power the m40x, but you won't get the most out of them. A solid entry-level amp/dac is here: https://www.amazon.com/FX-Audio-Optical-Coaxial-Amplifier/dp/B072JJT7SF/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1549221478&sr=1-3&keywords=fx+audio+dac-x6
​
Also, the Cloud Hyperx 2 are actually some decent headphones. I'm not sure you will be getting that much of an upgrade going to m40x. If it's an option, wait, save up $50 and buy the Sennheiser hd58x Jubilees on Massdrop. You seriously won't regret it and your mind will be blown.
I bought these and put them on my m50s and now I can wear them forever. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ They do leak a tad more sound now, but nothing crazy.
Hey there! A few bits of advice from someone who's had M50x's for a while now.
http://amzn.com/B00MFDX4YO
On amazon it's from mp4nation.net's amazon store front.
I have the M40x which I think is pretty similar. How do these go on? Do you take off the old pads first or do these go on top of the ones already on there?
Was thinking about buying these velour pads, been on my wishlist for 24 dollars forever.
The cable is a mile long, you could walk across the room before it yanked. If you're playing at your desk (PC?) then you'll be fine, the cable won't wear or fray. These headphones are amazing, I love them. In about 8 months your ear pads will start to feel like they suck, that's because the foam has broken down. I just got these and my 700Xs are brand new again.
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
They are actually amazing if you replace the pads with these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO
Have tried both - the fuzzy versions of these are so much more comfortable IMO - subjective of course, but with the fuzz you don't get ever sweaty, they breathe.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO
The only real answer:http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
its a bit of a pain to put them on properly.
But I did it to my older set of HD598s and it brought them back to life.
Definitely recommend these ear pads for the 598.
I got these ones. They're much better. They'll probably take any cups that would fit the other popular AT headphones.
Actually, it looks like these are the ones I bought specifically: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO.
Like I said they are suuuuuuper comfortable, I went from 2-3 hours max wearing them at a time to a full work day after the switch. The only downside I'd say they have is the covering on these ones (idk about /u/MilesDonger 's link) are a cloth that doubles as a two Tesla rated lint magnet.
assuming ur talking about this one
Many are similar if not identical. But these are the ones that sucked huge donkey balls for me. I returned them instantly. These are more squared at the edges.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00MFDX4YO/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1416688570&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX200_QL40
Monoprice 8323 and a set of either of these pads Velour or Pleather. The stock pads are too small.
No, you need to look at oval pads like these: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Which I also bought as potential replacements for my 598s thinking they were better than the stock ones. They were not. they are exactly the same. Would only use if yours are damaged or if a lower end model doesnt have as comfortable velour pads
The Brainwavz foam ear pads go a long way to removing the dark feeling while maintaining everything that's great about the Nighthawks.
A recent Head-Fi post indicates that AudioQuest suede pads are now available as well.
While those are fine, I'd really recommend getting the Brainwavz pads as they're much more plush. The thickness will also help keep the headphones on a bit tighter.
http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
I bought this one because of a recommendation from someone on another subreddit. They work great.
BRAINWAVZ Velor Replacements Ear... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
HM-5 velour pads will fit, but the sound may change in ways that you won't like using velour on the M40x.
Brainwavez HM5. I use them for just about anything they can fit on. I have had them on my DT990s for about 3yrs now, and the only problem I have is the black velour picks up my cat's white hair like the mother of all magnets. Otherwise, stupid comfortable.
I also have them on my HD280s and ATH 50x.
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Replacement-ATH-M50X-HifiMan-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO
I use these on my Arctis 7s (sort of the same) and these are excellent
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1482710369&sr=8-3&keywords=brainwavz+earpads
Have you tried using different earpads on your ad700? I had issues with long use and swapped them for Brainwavez memoryfoam pads. Much more comfortable.
Older generation TB 800X can be had for $199 brand new. Do the firmware updates for the mic issues, and if you've got some time and patience, swap the pads with some Velour pads (like these: https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO), and boom, done.
My TBs have some quirks every now and then, but sound quality is top notch, I can listen to my own music from my phone seamlessly and with independent volume from my game, and I can take phone calls on it too.
For the ear pads, the HM5 Velour Pads are most often recommended. I switched mine out with those and they are much easier to wear for long periods of time. Sound is definitely not the same though, you lose a bit of bass and mid-bass as a result.
I can't offer much help if the headband is stretched too wide...
And modding the M50s to the M50x is, IMO, not a worthwhile time investment. You may as well just pick up an all new M50x to solve all 3 problems at once. Or you could check out the headphone purchase recommendation tool over at /r/headphones for alternatives.
I have the open back HD598s but I fucking hated them when I first got them. Like you said, everything sounded tinny and essentially lifeless with zero bass for several days of use. I didn't want to give up on them since they were my first real pair of headphones & were by far the most comfortable, and they got so much better with continuous use. The sound stage and overall clarity is incredible when I compared them to my other gaming headsets & slightly cheaper headphones.
One thing that helped make the bass more prominent (almost too prominent lol) was replacing my ripped stock pads with these ones. The comfort level also went way up, which was definitely the most appealing part of these pads.
I got them for Christmas, but I believe they were the HM5 replacement pads.
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO
For replacement ear pads i would highly reccomend velour as your ears won't get as sweaty. Personally i would also highly reccomend these.. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_.ZHUCbGTQG8ZF
From what I'm reading, the AKG's could use a bit of a boost in the highs, so that might actually be a functional replacement in addition to comfort.
I love cloth/velour pads because after 30 minutes or so I start sweating with plastic/pleather, making things very uncomfortable and getting the headphones extremely dirty after a couple of weeks. So thanks again for this info as it's definitely something to consider.
Do you think these brainwavz would work on the Pioneers?
Since the headphones are uncomfy, you should get some earpads from Brainwavz. They make a night and day difference.
These are some good ones http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=pd_sim_267_67?ie=UTF8&dpID=41RSWch-OBL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=05W96ZBWQMFJX3RFTNBX these http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Hybrid-Memory-Foam-Earpad/dp/B00ZGGG3KY/ref=pd_sim_267_69?ie=UTF8&dpID=41haME4X2jL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=05W96ZBWQMFJX3RFTNBX or these http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Replacement-Memory-Foam-Earpads/dp/B00MFDT894/ref=pd_sim_267_45?ie=UTF8&dpID=41vuwIZESZL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=05W96ZBWQMFJX3RFTNBX I tried the M50x, same pads, very uncomfy but these are VERY high quality.
My recommendation is /r/headphones, but while you're here check out the Sony MDR-V6 ($76) with replacement pads ($24.50) for comfort. I don't know how it'll do for sound whoring, but it looks like they've been a staple for decades in studio work.
Closed-back, over ear, fixed coiled 10' cable (this is long, really long), and pretty well recommended from the looks of things. It looks like these headphones are more expensive right now than usual though.
I use the Sennheiser 558 (was $80, seems to be getting replaced), but they're open backed (great for music but with non-existant isolation).
yeah i been thinking about doing that - would the hm5 make them more sharp? also should i just get these cheap hd650 pad replacements and rip off the plastic part and super glue the hm5 pads to them?
https://www.amazon.com/Replacement-Sennheiser-Headphone-Cushion-Earpads/dp/B00TGCDG90/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1467838135&sr=8-2&keywords=hd650+ear+pad

Third party. Here are some super cheap ones, but I like this one and these
quite a bit as well. All three of these are a huge stepup and they also come in different colors.
I use these, and they've been awesome.
get the velor HM5 pads:
http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
it'll give more space between your ear and the driver and velor will help it breathe
As far as wireless headsets that are surround sound, you have the following compatible with Xbox One:
>Turtle Beach
>* Elite 800X - $299 - Great when it works. I personally had issues with 3 sets and decided it wasn't for me.
> Astro
> A50 - $299 - There is an A50 that is out now that is commonly referred to as the "Halo A50." It is the current generation model that comes with the headset stand, base station, etc. It's a great headset that is mostly wireless. For chat, it requires a cord from the headset to the controller.
> A50 (new) - $299 - This version is not out yet, and has been delayed. The biggest difference between the newest model and the previous generation is this model is completely wireless with no cords from the headset required.
>SteelSeries
> SteelSeries Siberia X800 - $309 - This wireless headset uses a cord to the controller for voice chat. I am unfamiliar with the headset but it seems like a valid third brand option, in no particular order.
>Wired Headsets
> This requires some type of surround sound receiver, headphones, and a mic. There are bundles available from Astro, Turtle Beach, Razer, SteelSeries, etc., but one can obtain better quality by mixing and matching the best of each part: the receiver, the headset, and microphone (if it isn't included in the headset)
> Surround sound receivers
> This is pretty much between Astro's Mixamp Pro TR and Turtle Beach's
> Astro's Mixamp Pro TR for XO, PS4, PC and Mac - $130 This is one option for dolby digital 5.1/7.1 surround sound decoding and Dolby Headphone encoding for any standard stereo headset.
>* Turtle Beach Elite Pro TAC - $199 - This is a second option for DTS surround sound via DTS Headphone:X 7.1 Surround Sound. A lot of options that aren't available on the Mixamp Pro TR are on the Turtle Beach TAC such as being able to adjust background noise, microphone boost and mic monitor levels instantly and physically.
> Differences between Astro and Turtle Beach They both do a great job at providing situational surround sound to stereo headphones. With the current firmware updates for each respective unit there does seem to be a sound quality difference with a lot of people prefering the Astro. I recommend plugging in headphones and watching this video and hear the differences for yourself: Astro Mixamp Pro TR vs Turtle Beach TAC
>Headsets
> Some of the best headsets recommended by those on HeadFi.org can be read about here. This is where I had come to my selection of the AudioTechnica ATH-AD700.
> If you would rather buy a wired surround sound headset ready to go out-of-the-box
> For a wired ready to go set, I'd have to put my money on the Astro A40 Mixamp Pro TR, although I personally prefer open-back headsets instead of sound isolation closed-back headphones.
If it were me buying a set today...
I would want something wireless so it would be the newest Astro A50 that comes out in October, or the SteelSeries X800, but then again, it is because I've went down the wired path, using a mixamp or DSS with many different wired headphones and mics. Even if I didn't have cord-loving cats, I'm glad that I have a wireless headset. It really is a personal preference that you can't really pin down, until you try some yourself.
A side note: I have an average sized head, but larger than average protruding ears. Every headset I've purchased, I've swapped out the earcups with aftermarket sets. Most notably brainwavz HM5 earups. They are deeper and more comfortable for me and have worked on most sets of headphones without modification. I highly recommend them. They come in Pleather - various colors, Hybrid pleather + Velour, and just Velour
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_sims?ie=UTF8
Here ya go friend :) Just gonna let you know now that when you get them, it'll seem at first like they won't go on. With a bit of patience they'll fit just fine
A (sort of) comprehensive guide on the most popular hyper x headsets
ALPHA
I have alpha and it is good but I had to buy brainwavz hm5 pleather pads because my ears touched the drivers. This is relatively expensive (22.5 us). I also wanted surround, so I got the dongle for the revolver s but it was very staticky so I returned it. Other than that, now the stereo is good, with good clarity because of the dual chamber driver, although you might hear static unless you put it to studio quality in Windows.
They also only come in black and red, and the cable twists up a lot, so I twist tied down the part of it I don't use.
REVOLVER (S)
From what I heard, there is more bass on the revolver and revolver s but the headband causes ambient sound absorbtion issues, and the s has surround but again, for me the dongle didn't work, so I'm not sure for you.
(2)
My friend has the cloud 2 and he said he gets static with the dongle too, but aside from that, they are basically the alpha but more comfortable without replacement pads, surround sound, extra velour pads in the box, a carrying case and worse sound quality and mic quality then the alpha. These come in black and red, and gunmetal.
(ORIGINAL)
The original clouds I don't know much about, but I'm pretty sure they are the same as the cloud 2 without the replacement pads and worse mic and sound quality. Black and red and black and white colors as well
(FLIGHTS)
The flights from what I've heard are similar to the alpha, with the same comfort issue (still compatible with brainwavz hm5 pads), wireless, but with some permanent static, because they are wireless a mute on the side of the headphones and good battery life.
(STINGERS)
The stingers are the best headset for a budget and are basically cloud 1s but with worse everything (build quality, sound and mic) and cost 50 usd.
(OTHER MODELS)
Other than that, I don't know anything about the cloud core or the cloud x (specifically for Xbox).
(MY RECOMMENDATION)
If you have the money to spend, (122.5 usd plus tax) I recommend the cloud alpha, the brainwavz hm5 pleather/memory foam pads, and in windows, changing the advanced audio settings to 48 khz studio mode, but take this with a grain of salt.
(REPLACEMENT BRAINWAVZ HM5 PADS)
For reference, the replacement pads all take a few minutes to stretch on to the alphas and flights
PLEATHER
Brainwavz hm5 pleather/memory foam link (more comfortable, smaller soundstage then velour, same sound quality as vanilla pads)
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDT894?th=1
VELOUR
Brainwavz hm5 velour pads (better soundstage, less comfortable then pleather/memory foam pads), also a dust magnet
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=sspa_mw_detail_1?psc=1
HYBRID
Brainwavz hm5 hybrid pads (not recommended, but in between velour and pleather. It is better to stick with one or the other, this one isn't very good
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J53KM32/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?psc=1
OTHER
there is also a sheepskin model, but I don't know if it will stretch well to fit or have sound differences.
Also the angled and circular hm5 pads will not fit, so don't get those.
Sheepskin link
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J53KM32/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?psc=1
Good luck with the purchase.
Sorry my formatting sucks I'm on mobile.
EDIT: While I was typing this, the other guy described the sound of the alphas, 1s and 2s good, so read that post as well.

Just got these and they are simply heavenly
Brainwavz HM5 Velor Memory Foam Replacements Earpads - Suitable For Many Other Branded Large Over The Ear Headphones - AKG, HifiMan, ATH, Philips, Fostex
http://amzn.com/B00MFDX4YO
I also bought the brainwavz ear pads. I got the HM5 velour pads:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They take a little bit of effort to get on, but its totally worth it in my opinion. They are mad comfortable.
I have a pair of superlux HD 668B they have really good sound, and the cable is datatchable, and is just an 3.5mm jack extender. The standard pads aren't great though, so I'd recommend getting some brainwavz hm5 pads they're a bit tough to get to fit, they require some careful stretching, but after that, they are amazing. Zeos did a video on them if you want some more info on all that. In total it lands at a bit over 50, but they are cheap for what they are.
I'm not quite sure. Comparing the size from yarosalvm's thread and a picture from amazon they might. Would you say those are better?
I like the headphones, the pads I may change soon actually though. They attract/show dust and lint like crazy and at times I find them to be a little bit scratchy/itchy, but not that often. They have great reviews though so others seem to really like them.

Aere these the ones you're talking about?
These ones I've been using for years are great & fit perfect. Super comfortable and a lot more roomy that the included leather pads. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00MFDX4YO?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title
Hello!
I've bought a pair of Superlux HD668B and a pair of Brainwavz HM5 Velor pads. They arrived 3 days ago but I've only been able to use the stock pads because I couldn't put the HM5's over the cups.
I've read from a lot of places that say they should work together, as well as that the pads require a lot of stretching. I've already torn one of the pads a little.
If anyone here has them both, can you please tell me how you did it? Pics would be cool too if you can spare the time.
Thanks.
I got these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and they definitely help the pain of my ears, I got these because they had faster shipping and a little cheaper price compared to the steelseries ones.
Afternoon everyone!
I'm sure this has been asked numerous times already, but I hope you don't mind answering it for one more person!
I'm looking at purchasing replacement earpads for my M50x. I had purchased a pair of velour earpads off Massdrop recently but cancelled because it wouldn't ship till May and I'd rather just buy off Amazon for about $10 less after considering shipping/duties/taxes.
I'm currently looking at this Brainwavz pair from Amazon and was wondering what the opinion is on readily available replacement earpads for ATH M50x in Canada.
Budget is (preferably under) $50 CAD.
I mainly use my headphones on my desk at home and work, rarely have them on in public.
Thanks for the help! Appreciate it!
Lol, no. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/
Little late to this but found this post after googling a little bit.
Can you clarify something for me? You say you recommend the micro suede pads but then the link you posted was for velor pads. Just making sure those are the correct pads. If they are, are these the same ones you've recommended (just .ca instead)? 99% sure they are the same ones but just in case. Thanks!
thanks.
edit: wait the ones i just ordered don't look angled
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They don't come with extra ear cups/pads, and the ones that come with it weren't deep enough for me. I replaced them with these and they fit really well:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MFDX4YO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Love my M50x's! I highly recommend the Brainwavz HM5 velor ear pads, if you're in the market. The stock ear pads were a bit uncomfortable on my ears.
Hmm, well it depends on what type of pain you're talking about. If your outer ear hurts then new pads would probably help.
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO
These also come in pleather if you're not a fan of velour.
Are there any replacement earpads that can fit to my Superlux HD688B's?

would these work?
Since you can’t buy Turtle Beach replacements, I decided to get these from Amazon. Very comfortable and not as hot as the TB ones. Not a cheap replacement, but cheaper than buying a new headset.

Thanks for that. I actually just realised it's possible to adjust the clamping force of these headphones by flexing the headband, so the standard earpads are not too bad now. I think I'm still going to buy some replacements though so my ears can fit entirely inside. Are these the HM5 pads you are using and did you get yours for roughly the same price?
Looking to change the stock pads on my ath-m50. Was looking to get more comfortable pads. Do either of these change the sound for the worse?

The Audio Technica M50x might be a good fit for you. They have great bass, but not over the top. You would probably want to swap out the stock pads for Brainwavz HM 5 pads though, as they can get a little uncomfortable after long usage with stock pads. If you wait a bit you should be able to get a good price on the M50x's. I got mine for $134 or so.

Questions regarding JVC HA-SZ2000s:
I consider myself a basshead and own a pair of ATH-M50x's and they're fantastic headphones, but really uncomfortable for me with glasses even with some 40mm angled pleather pads. I can't wear them for maybe more than 4 hours, and my job calls for it being a video producer. I want to try and avoid this issue with the SZ2000.
I was looking at the Brainwavz HM5 pads see here since I hear the stock pads are dreadful on the cans. Would it be better getting angled or flat pads? I'm hoping these "memory foam" ones are a lot better for comfort.
Secondly, I have a FiiO E10k strapped to my desk for my M50x's, with me being a basshead I want to maximise its efficiency (who doesn't?) so would I be OK with the E10k or do people recommend others? I'd like to listen to them on the go, at work and at home so a portable amp would be fantastic.
Thirdly, is there anything else I need or would that be it? Again, looking to really get the most out of this headset so any suggestions would be grand! Cheers gang.
Are there no other velour earpad options?
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=pd_lpo_23_bs_lp_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=MPBR5FZ0N0GT6NHBD0PY
Do you believe these would fit?
I really like the closed 598s but the earpads are a little annoying as i prefer velour pads.
What is the website used by ishca?
EDIT. I purchased the replacements linked and will provide an update once I receive them. I am not sure how to test the change in sound tho.
I'm not really in the market for new headphones at the moment. What I'd like to do instead is just spend some money to get the best sound out of my 558's. I primarily use my headphones for gaming (CS:GO/Overwatch), I'm not an audiophile by any stretch of the imagination.
For sound, I'm currently using the Asus Xonar DGX soundcard. This is a screenshot of the sound center: http://i.imgur.com/9P1lMqO.jpg Obviously there's not much to control. I got that sound card at the time I got the 558's because my onboard audio wasn't powering the 558's despite their low impedance. I'm considering replacing it if you guys think it would be a good idea. If so, I suppose I'd want a budget friendly DAC (under $200?) that will get me by for quite a while, if not indefinitely.
For comfort I'm thinking about just replacing the pads with these: https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO I already have an AntLion ModMic, so the microphone part is taken care of.
Let me know what you guys think. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO
That does! Thank you. I just tried out the 558s at my local best buy per suggestion and they fit perfectly. Would these [HM5 ear pads] (http://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Velor-Memory-Replacements-Earpads/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1450056734&sr=8-1&keywords=HM5+ear+pads) be the best bets to achieve those same minimum dimensions on my MDR-7506s without screwing up the sound?
The MDRV6 is cheaper, but out of stock on Amazon, and the 7506 is only about $10 more expensive, so I could spring for that. When you mention swapping the pads, are you talking about these as replacements? And how easy is it to swap pads in and out? Also, any idea on the comfort level (both of those pads and of the 7506)? They look like they'd be decently comfortable, and I know Sony's pretty good about that (I've tried out one of their MDRXB950BT's which were pretty comfortable).
do you know if those hm5 pads will fit the 558's? The memory foam on my k7xx's is so nice and I heard the hm5 pads might fit the hd558's
I was looking at picking these up
Well that is certainly not my experience. Perhaps your pads are a bit worn down and so are closer to the originals? I barely use my sets of pads and mostly bought them due to the hype they had.
Are these them?
Maybe the Brainwavz pads?
https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=pd_sbs_23_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00MFDX4YO&pd_rd_r=D5SKDS65866CKZC6TMZV&pd_rd_w=HOaxa&pd_rd_wg=JhTjj&psc=1&refRID=D5SKDS65866CKZC6TMZV
Order the 1000x and its coming today. I think i should return it to be safe, but i will try it out.
Yes they are completely different. Im just saying the game one headband is wonderful and wondering if the 1000x had something similar along with depth/comfortable earcups.
Is it possible to swap the earcups of the 1000x with something like [this?] (https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-HM5-Velor-Memory-Foam-Replacements-Earpads-Suitable-For-Many-Other-Branded-Large-Over-The-Ear-Headphones-AKG-HifiMan-ATH-Philips-Fostex/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8)
Thanks for your suggestion, I'll think about it.
Also, is this the velour pads that you're referring to? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO
Hi guys,
I'm quite new to the audio scene (as in not even in the scene). I just got gifted a pair of AudioTechnica ATH-M30X. They are comfortable, but after a few hours of use, they will start to get stuffy and kinda tight over my ears. After researching a bit, I think a pair of velour pads will solve my problems.
So far, I have Brainwavz HM5 Velor Memory Foam Replacements Earpads or Shure HPAEC940 Replacement Velour Ear Pads.
Can anyone tell me if either one of those will fit on the M30X?
Also, any other recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
*Sorry if my English is bad, not really my mother tongue :)
Are these one good ? The M50X with the stock pads is crushing my head and I'm looking for a solution. Tried to stretch the headband but I'm worried about damaging it =/
Before I complete the order, this is what you're talking about, yes? Just want to make sure they work with ATH-M50x.
Also, why velour? Don't they make you sweat more?
I bought the Sennheiser HD598s and the HM5 pads based on a recommendation a while ago. How? How do you get them on there? They are completely different than the stock ones, and they just don't fit. I've been trying to get 'em on for hours. Is there a trick? Did I buy the wrong ones? Am I supposed to cut them? I have no idea.
I know it's not the typical comment for here, but I don't think it's deserving of a self post.
I got the Brainwavz pads for my girlfriend's pair and they're cool, but I got some HM5 velour pads for my V6s like the other poster. They don't fit as well at first, but holy damn... They're so comfy. Takes a day or two to get used to them with the fit but I can't ever go back. They're like memory foam pillows on your head.
Edit: These! I got the velour ones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO/
Ok, I've been trying to mod pair of t50rp myself so for past few days I was reading about modding t50rp and doing my research.
How well you mod t50rp depends on ability of modder and no 2 mods will be the same.
Anyway, short representation of mods:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgccbW6BXJY
As you can see it's very simple. However there are tons of mods and everyone of them is slightly different... So here is ultimate wiki giving you everything need about modding t50rp:
http://www.head-fi.org/a/fostex-t50rp-modification-summary-links-wiki
Now you might ask, can you fuck up modding t50rp?
Like with anything, yes but if you be careful and follow the most basic mods then there will be no harm done. All of the mods on the video are reversible.
Are there any cons? Well for one you will have to take t50rp like 20 times apart to see if you like any specific mods. Secondly the end product will be difficult to drive from your average laptop, so amp might be best if you want to get 100% of them. (The base goes away with several mods if you don't have the t50rp amped.)
My advice to you? Read everything about t50rp modding and do as it's on the video with few possible changes ( adjusting depending on your own tastes )
Do everything on the video but:

Not very precise but the soundstage.... it's huge!
Great sound for the price, though the default pads are very uncomfortable IMO.
I bought these and they're comfortable af.
You're definitely not making a mistake buying these, even if they are comparatively expensive to what you could get them for elsewhere (29€ in Germany).
If you decide to get them, put on these ear pads: Amazon. The pads they come with are very uncomfortable.
Here are the links for what you need

You might wanna pick up some ear pads as the superlux earpads are pretty shitty.
Not only will the new pads be more comfortable, but they will make the overall sounds MUCH better. The pads i linked are quite fiddly to put on as they are for a different shape, but they DO fit, just keep trying :^)
(It should also be noted that the 668B's are quite treble heavy, if you really dont want to deal with it, maybe put (tissue?) or something in between the actual speaker and the pads, it helps cancel the treble just enough and helps the bass a fair amount, and don't we all love some bass :^)
Velour is a very soft fabric similar to velvet. They are more comfortable than earpads made with leather imo.
You can look at these valour ones on amazon: Brainwavz HM5 Velor Memory Foam Replacements Earpads for Over The Ear Headphones https://www.amazon.in/dp/B00MFDX4YO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_nFWZCbYANJ4JP

I'm just looking for good pads to put on the Superlux HD668B headphones I just bought.
Someone recommended these https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO, but in the questions people are saying they don't fit or ruin the sound or something. If anyone knows better please let me know.
Anyone know of some comfortable wireless headphones? I got these a while ago and while they're awesome, cheap bluetooth headphones, they can get uncomfortable:
HIFI Elite Headphones!
My problem with them is that they're not like the ATH M50x where you can swap the uhh...I forget what its called, the soft piece that lays on your ear. Ear piece? The cushion that goes on there. I bought these cushions for my ATH m50x and wow, they feel like clouds on your ears. Unfortunately I can't swap out the cushion for the wireless headphone I have and I have pretty big ears
Cushion ear piece!
is this the one?
Try raising up the speakers, so they're at ear level. You will be surprised how much clarity this will add in the top end.
Also ensure the spacing of the monitors is correct, the speakers and your head should form an equilateral triangle.
Also ATH-M50xs are great headphones, but get VERY uncomfortable on your ears very quickly, but if you buy these pads they are incredibly comfy.
They have them here, they're just not as cheap. That's why I got the red ones for my 558s.
I walked into a Target today and picked up a set of the Kraken 7.1 Chroma v1 for $40. They were on clearance. I took off the pads immediately as they were very uncomfortable. I test fitted several other pads I had laying around and found that I liked the Brainwavz HM5, and the pads off an old TB X12's. The brainwaves fit about 85-90% correctly, they wouldn't fall off by any means but are very comfy. The x12's fit at about 95%. I am currently running the x12 pads for now. Sound quality is decent, and the mic is very clear.
For me $40 wasn't bad for the v1 Kraken Chroma as I had other pads I could use. YMMV. I would recommend checking out you local Target to see if they have any deals before dropping full price on a comfort upgrade that doesn't address the fitment issues people with big ears have.
Cheers.
If curious, here is a link to the Brainwavz pads:

Hello, Looking for headphones for my little bro. Will be used for gaming, would like detailed/direction of sound.
I'm undecided between Audio-Technica ATH-M40x or Sony MDRV6 would replace pads with these in the near future.
Would very much appreciate r/headphones opinion's or recommendation of another headphone before making a final choice.
Audio Technica's M50x These are what i used for competitive FPS for a couple years, sound great on media and awesome in game. I personally favored the AD700 for long sessions and for FPS as i found the positional accuracy even better than the M50x.
if you dislike the stock earpads on the m50x These velour ones are marvelous.
Probably go for these: http://www.gearbest.com/on-ear-over-ear-headphones/pp_279992.html
They're a bit uncomfortable as they come so people replace the pads with these: https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Memory-Replacements-Earpads-Headphones/dp/B00MFDX4YO
Both come to just over $50. If you have a dead set hard limit of $50 maybe get the headphones and get the pads after you save a few extra bucks. But the upgrade in pads is definitely worth it. I have quite a few sets of headphones and this is the best I have for that price point.
Going up a little bit is the Philips SHP9500 at $70 which people rave about but I've never heard.
I just received a pair of T50RP MK3s the other day and they are fantastic. Now I need help deciding what earpads to get for them since I wear glasses and they make my head hurt.
My current comfort reference is Sennheiser 558s. I'm torn between the velour pads, hybrids, and something more expensive like cowhide.
I would like them to be wearable for hours and not press my glasses into my skull (both in front and behind my ears)...while not being overly stuffy and sweaty. I hate fake leather with a passion, and I know PU/pleather will be sweaty and gross, like cheap office chairs. I don't care about sound leakage, which is why I have open and semi-open headphones, but I don't want the pad material to affect the sound too much.
Secondary to comfort, I want as much bass retained as possible. The MK3s are bone stock right now, I want to get them wearable before any other changes.
Thanks for any help.
These Headphones ($16) + These Earpads ($25) + This Mic ($25) = $66 before shipping
This is what I'm running and I love it so far. I had to stretch out the headband as the headphones were a little tight on my dome, but less cables than my other headphones+modmic setup which is something that I really enjoy.
NVX?
Monoprice with HM5 pads?
Try the Brainwavz HM5. Little pricy though @ $22.50.
I was searching that subreddit for information on new pads, and the consensus seems to be that (1) they're MUCH more comfortable, though (2) they may change up your audio profile by effectively de-emphasizing bass. I'll probably get a set of the Brainwavz HM5 pads regardless of any bass issues, since I spend enough time wearing my headphones each day that comfort may outweigh any changes in the profile.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Don't get wireless headphones. You get lower sound quality for more money.
See if you can try on the NAD Viso HP50 somewhere. The sound is excellent, they come in black, red and white cups, detachable cable (with standard 3.5mm jacks at both ends), good isolation. Can be easily driven by phones and are pretty light. The sound is rather neutral with a warm tint and the soundstage is very good (listen to Yosi Horikawa's "Bubbles" or "Letter", see what kind of room it seems recorded in, compared to other headphones).
They're supposed to be comfortable with glass-wearers. Can't vouch 100% for this because each individual has different ear size and glass frame thickness, either try them on or buy from somewhere with good return policy. FWIW they're compatible with the HM5 velour pads, which are kinda famous for offering amazing comfort, so they can be further improved if they need it.
If you're going to replace the pads, I'd recommend getting yourself a pair of the memory foam pads like these. They actually produce a bit better sound than the leather ones that the M-50s come with.
Any specific, affordable suggestions apart from velour then? Zeos suggested the $10 HiFi velours in his review, and others suggested the $22 Brainwavz HM5.
Get Him a pair of HM5 Velor pads

The eadiest solution is to buy new pads.
I'm not too sure if they'll fit, but the HM5 pads are very good. They have pleather, velour and hybrid variants (normal and angled).
For the headrest, get a leather Beyerdynamic cushion.
