Mold On my D5000's?!

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 

I recently got my AD2000's and they became my main headphones, since then i put my D5000's in my closet, they where in there for about 2-3 month's, and now some odd fuzz has sprouted from the leather earpads, how did this happen and how do i go around getting new stock ear pads (a new headband wouldnt hurt as well)

Gear mentioned in this thread:

Some Jmoney pads?

This is what happens to leather in moldy and moist environments.

It happened to my leather shoes too!

 

What you do: you take some white vinegar and use it to remove the mold.

The vinegar will kill the mold and prevent it from coming back(without damaging the leather).

 

There, problem solved!

The Denon pads are synthetic leather though. How did mold get on there?

 

I hope you kept the plastic anchoring ring before throwing the pads out. Jmoney pads don't come with the ring.

Eat it!! Many food enthusiast consider mold to be an exquisite cruising and some believe that it is good for your body.
