Dedicated ear pad thread?

Thread Starter 

I'm thinking of starting up a thread dedicated to ear pads, some place were people can post about what ears pads have worked with their headphones and which did not.

Just concentrated info & feedback on ear pads.

But trying to figure out which section on Head-Fi would be the best place to put this thread?

And what might be the best title for the thread?

Maybe just "The Ear Pad Thread"?

 

EDIT. Started "The Ear Pad Thread" here is the link.

Great idea PurpleAngel!

 

We need a place to compile a what works and what doesn't.

A what fits what would be very handy as well.

Pictures and size measurements, mounting methods etc...

Thumbs up to this idea.

Good idea. L3000.gif

 

P.S.

By the way, I've read  on this site that a pair of earpads for AKG K701 or K702 or Q701

(are they the same?) costs $70, if I remember correctly.

If it's true it's a crime.

This is a fantastic idea - I'd probably put it in the Tweaks forum to prevent it from getting buried in Full-Size. smily_headphones1.gif

Yes that's roughly accurate - they're around $35/ea for the K701, and $40/ea for the 702. That's actually fairly in-line with most headphones' replacement earpads, Koss and Grado excepted.
