More than likely a lot more than they are worth.There was a thread or post somewhere on the forum about refoaming them.From what I remember quite a simple job.
It was an old post by "Fitz" below is a copy/paste.
They're real leather unlike other AKG pads that use pleather, so really only the foam inside them needs replacing. Each one is just a foam wedge glued to a little cardboard rectangle with the leather wrapped over it. Unstick the four flaps on the leather so you can peel it off the cardboard/foam, cut some new pieces of foam to put in, then glue it back together.
That's exactly what i done for the 2 rear pads on mine, took only a few minutes using some memory foam from a pillow and they are good as new.
Not sure about other countries but i was quoted £80GBP + shipping form a UK distributor for the set of 4, what a rip off !!!!
As of 4:00 pm today, I finally became an official AKG K-1000 member and very proud owner ..... SN # 04023 ..... FANTASTIC CANS!!!!
K1000 #04273
Almost made the terrible mistake of selling them, but keeping them forever now
These are better than my studio monitors or any speaker I've ever heard. Just had to get used to the headphone imaging etc.
Btw, anybody know of a SAC K1000 amp for sale anywhere? Looking for one.
#4273 are mine now and they are simply outstanding..
