Brainwavz Velor Replacements Ear Pads - for ATH-M50X, SHURE, AKG, HifiMan, ATH, Philips, Fostex Velour Memory Foam Earpads & Many Over The Ear Headphones, Oval Black

This within a couple of hours of use so I might edit this later if possible. The cushions are large, by that I mean really large. I think they would fit an HD 598 easily. I have very large ears so the existing earpads on my HD 4.50 BTNCs were so small that my ears would hurt in the first 30min of wearing them. They exerted a lot of pressure on the jaws as well.In comparson, these HM5s are really good and comfortable (I bought the Velour ones) as they are big enough to wrap around my ears. They are also soft enough to "stay" on your ears without any force and have changed the characteristic of the original headphones. I also wear pretty big glasses and the cusions make that a comfortable experience as well.I have to point out though that the noise cancellation obviously suffers since it's not a perfect seal. In terms of value, they are definitely NOT VFM. But since this is such a niche product category, I can't really argue against the ₹1699 asking price.My decision to buy these was influenced by the fact Brainwavz is a trusted brand and that I already own many of their other products.

A great product with a good quality material used in it but it easily get the dusty. It really comfortable in your ears and it doesn't quickly warm your ears as a perfect fit for every ears size as it is big it is easy to install in your headphones.

Since old pads started to degrade after 3 years of usage, I opted this as a replacement. Comfortness is hugely upgraded.To get the same sound signature as stock earpads, headphone has to be worn tightly and ensure that there is no loose fitting or else sound signature feels off.

I bought them as replacement ear pads for my Hyperx Cloud Alpha Pro. They original earpads were of leatherette material and had started to peal off. Also since they would provide great seal, they also heated my ears after sometime causing discomfort. Further, the cushion pads are not thick enough (Hyperx has fixed this but still) due to which headphones felt too clamped. So, to fix these issues I purchased these replacement earpads.Firstly, the velour material is super soft and after about 3 weeks of usage(~6hours/day) there is no sign of wear and tear. Secondly, the seal is not as good as the stock earpads so that lessens the noise cancelation a bit. But since there is air circulation, my ears don't feel hot and doesn't sweat after prolonged usage. Further, the cushions on these earpads are almost 1.5x thicker than the stock earpads and even on the inside the lining is thick so that ear don't make contact with the driver grill. These earpads fixed all the issues I had with the stock earpads on Hyperx Cloud Alpha Pro.The downsides to these earpads are major. Since the earpads have thicker sponge on the inside they muffle the output a lot. Not just the bass, but in my case I felt everything. The lows were significantly lower but the mids and highs were lowered as well. This was solved by increasing volume by about 40% and using external amp to fixed the missing bass. Still, sound quality seems to be about 10% worse than original. Overall, I would say it was worth. The comfort makes up for the loss in sound quality, besides if you are using amp it won't matter much.

I bought this as a replacement for Cooler Master 650 stock ear pads. As per measurements, the Brainwavz Velor Replacements Ear Pads were slighlty bigger than the stock ear pads so I was skeptical if it'd work. Once I installed it, it fit perfectly. Very comfortable.

Very High Price and Quality are not that much Good. Giving Review After 1 Month of Using These Cushions.

These Ear pads are very comfortable. Only downside is that these attract a lot of dust. Apart from that there is no wear and tear like in the original ones even after 6-7 years of use. Price is a bit on the higher side.

These feel more comfortable than the factory fitted ones. Previous one used to bother me when I wore specs but these don't give any problems to me in that regard. These still makes your ears warm and sweaty but it would take more time to happen than the factory fitted ones. There was not much change in sound quality though, not enough to notice.

アダプターを使用してHD650に付けていますが開放型で特徴的な音の抜けが損なわれず純正と同等の音質を出せています。ヘッドホンの側圧が強く元々付いていたイヤーカップが痛かったですがこちらのものに変えて正解でした。カップの内径は少し小さめですが装着したあとは気になりません。最後に、こちらの製品は国外からの発送で途中で追跡番号がおかしくなったりしましたが問題なく届きました。

I needed better earpads for my Superlux HD661 headphones. Although it's not stated as suitable for the HD661, similar size headphones are listed. I took a chance and ordered them. Well, they do fit and are vastly better than the supplied pads. They are also bigger than the originals so feel even better over your ears. My first listening session lasted a few hours without even noticing time passing. That never happened before because I was always aware of a pair of ill fitting, sweaty phones clamped to my head. There is no manual adjustment in the fit of this model of Superlux. A pair of rubberised wings are supposed to apply downward pressure on the head but do not really do much in reality. Now with the Brainwavz fitted the wings work and apply just enough pressure to hold the phones exactly where you place them over your ears. You can improve matter further by applying a mod mentioned by another reviewer. Roll a sheet of kitchen paper into a tube (roll around a pencil or something similar). Then push it into the gap between the foam pad and the integral black fabric that protects the driver. This will make the pads even deeper and more comfortable. The Brainwavz do seem to alter the sound for the better. HD661's are a little lite on bass but the Brainwavz seem at add a little weight to bass. These earpads are well worth the asking price.

They do their job, adapting well to my ears and allowing me to use them for longer than the original ones did. Might get a bit hot after some time but to be honest I can use it for hours without having a headache.

I bought these for my HyperX CloudX Flights (the Xbox specific one). The stock earcups are a bit shallow and my ears pressed up against the drivers. It caused some discomfort over longer gaming sessions. So, I set out to buy some ear cups. I'm delighted that HyperX went with an ear cup size that matches that of other headphones so we have plenty of options. I ended up buying these and the micro-suede ones to try out. I did leave a separate review of the micro-suede, so I won't say much about those here. Simply put, they are soft, comfortable, and they noise cancel very well. However, they breathe just about as well as the leather does so it's a bit warm. I tried these out and decided these were the ones for me.Pros1. The noise cancellation is where I want it to be. I like being able to hear the world around me (especially with 3 dogs and a girlfriend lol). It's enough that I can hear a ruckus that I might need to pay attention to, but enough to blot out most ambient room noise.2. They are breathable, although not as much as I am used to from something like Sennheiser velour earcups. Still, these are the coolest of the three Brainwavs they sell on this listing (the half leather / half velour, full velour, and micro-suede). Having used a half-leather ear cup on my Rig 800s, I have used all 3 archetypes and these were the least warm.3. It didn't alter the sound as much as I was expecting. The CloudX Flights have a V-shaped sound (bit heavy on bass, bit heavy on treble for imaging purposes). Both of those things were still true with these on. I guess maybe it makes a bigger difference on other headphones, but not really on this one.4. They fit! Kinda, more on that later.5. I personally don't like memory foam. It smushes down over the course of a gaming session and I have to eventually adjust the headband. The foam in these will eventually wear down, but they hold their shape pretty well over longer gaming sessions.6. They are vastly more comfortable than the stock pads from HyperX in terms that my ears don't press against the driver anymore. The HyperX ones are still comfy, just shallow.Neutral1. The material on this is not what I was expecting. I'm used to Sennheiser's velour, which is a bit softer than this material. Some people complain of a scratchy feel to them and I totally get that. I don't mind it, maybe my brain just tunes it out better than others (not that it's a mental descrepency, just a preference thing). In any case, I find these comfortable, but they are a bit scratchy so people sensitive to that should probably try the much softer micro-suede or a different brand's velour ear cups.Cons1. The leather piece on the back that you use to connect the ear cups to the headphone are WAY too long for HyperX headphones. You have to cut off about 1/3 of it and even then it's still a pretty loose fit. I would recommend cutting it right at the little seam that's there and then, if it's too loose still, trim from there. You will have to cut these to fit them on a pair of Rig 800s or CloudX Flights.Overall, I'm happy with this purchase. I prefer fabric to suede or leather for the cooler, more breathable effect. The sound didn't change much to my ears and everything worked pretty well. The micro suede ones sound better to me (probably as a function of better noise cancellation and better seal with the memory foam), and I may very well switch between the two as I need, but the velour ones just make everything feel right to me. Just beware of the scratchy feel. These are not as soft as some other velour ear cups.

The pads did change a little bit of the sound of the headphones, but I'm not mad at it. It's more comfortable than the original padding.
