Adhiper XM4 Replacement Ear Pads for Sony WH-1000XM4 (WH1000XM4) Noise Canceling Headphones, Upgraded Cooling Gel Earpads Cushions with Noise Isolation Memory Foam & Softer Protein Leather (Black)

I got these for my XM4 headphones after my puppy chewed up the pad and inner foam of one side. I’d been thinking of cooling gel pads for a while, and the inclusion of new pairs of the inner foam helped seal the deal. They fit to spec and feel great, but they are thicker and a boxier shape than the original Sony pads, so do expect that it will make the headset appear a bit bulkier visually, but not in a way that negatively impacts comfort. The sound is fantastic, as usual, which is to say these pads don’t have any negative impacts on the sound. If you need a set of pads, or are looking for something a little more comfy, these are a good choice.

Based on my title, you're probably thinking "why 5 stars ". Because it still does what it says it will do. They feel way lighter on my ears and are better for mowing and the gym. However, im sitting poolside now with a waterfall nearby. There is a rushing sound that doesn't exist on my other ear cups. Theyre so easy to switch out I could do an A B comparison because of this. The waterfall wooshing sound goes away completely with the original pads but they were sweaty within minutes in florida humidity. The gel pads are so comfortable but because its lighter there is some sound that passes through. Because it does what it says it's still 5 stars. You should just know what you value most.

Cumbersome to to install and this is because the installation video that's provided is around 2:45 minutes long but mostly consists of (i) showing how to remove the old pads, ok, but that part of the process is shown twice (using two tools, of which only one was provided in the package, but the other isn't needed anyway) followed by (ii) someone senselessly fiddling with the headphones and pads for most of the rest of the time -- seriously, watch the video before you buy this if you don't believe me! There is no audio/explanation and the not exactly minor issue of how to get the the new pads on such that the little plastic hooks hold them in place is completely glossed over. Reinstallation ACTUALLY consists of pressing the little hooks down really hard (which looks real bad, as if it was going to destroy the pads, which must be why they're not showing it). Once that is done, the fit seems good, they're a little thicker than the original pads, but that is of course not necessarily bad.

Very nice replacement. I like it them better than the original that came on my Sony headphones!

These are better for me than the OEM pads. It has slight cooling effect and I feel like it is better for me. My ears is not as hot as when I am using OEM pads. Plus, it is easy to replace these pads. 👍

it looks like it should work.

While these are described as cushioned ear pads, what I received was just a pair of rubber rings; see my photo. Thus I was unable to install them on my headphones. They don't have any gel, so they don't offer any cooling. They also did not come with the "crow bar" that they were supposed to. Maybe I was simply unfortunate and got a defective package. Regardless, I'm sorry to say that I simply can't recommend these at all.

These are great headphone earpieces and at a fair price. Don’t let the lack of reviews fool you, as compared to competing brands- I’ve tried other brands and these are thus far the best. I’ve had these for about 2 weeks now while using everyday. So far they have remained plump as new. Simply: Comfortable, installed easily, and would purchase again.

After 3 years of solid wear of my MX4 the ears pads were looking gross. Very easy to install- simply use the enclosed tool to click out the old and then pop the new ones into place. Press firmly until you hear a click and they are done. Immediately I could tell there was a better seal around my ears as the noise cancelling went up a notch. The pads do have a cooling effect which will be nice when I wear them all day at work.

Easy to replace, is very comfortable. Only complaint is that the foam shifts inside the muffs so it appears a bit deformed.

Das ANC wird um einiges schlechter und auch die Audio-Qualität leidet.

Product was easy to install to the headset and also had a tool to help with the installation process.

Traen una cuña para sacar los anteriores y poner los nuevos, buena calidad de producto y fácil de poner.
