My stock Aeolus cable failed in the first year I owned this headphone, and I had also bought the OFC cable at the time of purchase, and that one lasted until tonight when suddenly the right channel started cutting in and out when I move the cable. Any suggestions for other cheap decent third...

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't see AKG Replacement pads for that particular store. I did find these on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/133680128718 and they look very similar to the original pads. Anyone know if these would be any decent?

Anyone know where to buy good replacement pads for the K712? Preferably pads that don't change the sound characteristics from the original.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have no clue where to begin with earbuds/iems as I've never actually owned a pair, so I don't know what my fit/ear size would be. I've only used full size headphones. I am leaning towards earbuds over IEMs as I don't think I'd like the feeling of something in my ear...

Looking for earbuds for watching movies/tv shows at night in bed on my tablet. Any recommendations for around $50?

Hey all, I'm looking for some budget earbuds for watching tv shows/movies in bed on my S6 Lite Tablet. Something that's $50 or less and doesn't require an amp. They won't be used for music. Any recommendations? Thanks!

I currently use my ZMF Aeolus for pretty much everything, but from time to time like to break out the K712's, but the pads are completely worn down. Anyone have any experience with those third party replacement pads you can buy on Amazon? Any particular ones I should avoid?

I listened with the stock Aeolus pad for a few weeks and the bass is definitely great with this pad. When I switched to the universe suede perf the first thing I noticed was the noticeably large cut in the bass/body/impact. It did open the sound up quite a bit and the suede perf pads are super...

Got my pair last night, enjoying them right now with their stock pads. Also have the perf suede pads which I'll try in a week or two. I also got the OFC cable and I wondering how you guys went about straightening the cable out? It seems to have a mind of it's own on where it wants to twist and...

I had a ringing on my SU-8 the first time I got it and plugged it in. Not sure where the ringing was coming from, but according to others that had the issue, you just have to power off (via the button, don't unplug) and on again after like 20 minutes and the problem completely went away until...

Thanks. I have went with the suede head-strap as well. Order placed! Can't wait :L3000:

After a long time of researching my next headphone, I finally decided on the Aelous. I'm wondering what head-strap option is best. The lambskin or the Suede?

IMHO, it seems you haven't found a pair of headphones that match the sound signature you're looking for.

When I first got into the Headfi scene some 10+ years ago I started with a Beyerdynamic DT 770 80-Ohm. I then moved on to a AKG K701 until the left channel stopped working on them due to a loose wire. I Tried self repairing them, but didn't have any luck. I really liked the sound signature of...

Right now a pair of K712 Pro which I've been using for a good 4+ years, but have been looking to upgrade real soon. Thinking maybe a ZMF Aelous.
