I also took @Zenvota advice and picked up a pair of Brainwavz sheepskin angled pads with the felt and plastic rings. Slightly more clamp for me but overall much more comfortable.

Fully agree about the higher comfort.

Trying some other pads wasn't top on my list, as there seems no good way to mount them until the original frame becomes available, but comfort improvement would be welcome, so ...
I'll give the Gel Pads a shot once I can have them from Amazon, then I have a pair to rip appart.

Can you give me a link to the exact version of the Brainwavz pads please?

The nice thing about the Brainwavz is that you just take the normal earpads of via the clip mechanism and then you put the Brainwavz around.
Here is the requested link: Ohrpolster Brainwavz HM5 - Kunstleder - angewinkelt - schwarz (earpads - pleather - angled - black)

The clamp lessens over time and I havent noticed any strain or wear on the yokes headband or any connecting pieces joints.

You like the sheepskins? they were a little bright for me, but i roll off the treble more as well with the pleathers and music preset.

The felt and plastic rings are very easy to make and everything stays in place very well on the headphone, its completely nonaltering to the Mobius as well.

BTW I did not use and additional rings and I am already happy. Do you feel they are a necessity?

With music playing, push the cans against your head, do you notice them seal and the sound improve? that was the issue i had, just wrapping the pads on wasnt attaining seal.

Where would you get the plastic from?

If you're old enough you probably have old cd jewel cases lying around ;] and the felt is any old 1mm craft felt

It's my ability to cut them smoothly that puts me off, won't they shatter?

The clear plastic top for the ones i have did, but the bottoms were ok. If you have any experience with a dremel that makes quick work of it. but i did it with scissors just fine. They also dont have to be perfect, you can cut them in half and tape them together and glue to the felt.

Thanx, what are the real dimensions of those - in the Amazon description they say the same pad fit to the big round AKG 701 and the small oval Sony MDR-V6.
This is impossible, but typical sloppy Amazon talk.

Oh a black half! That might be more in the realms of feasibility. I'll have to see if I have any spare. The ones I have left all have CD's or DVD's in them.

Would save a lot of extra money for the gel ones I'd probably never use plus postage, just for the attachments.

Yeah, the clamp doesn't bother me much. The band is pretty flexible. However, I did notice that after removing the headphone the band would retain a slightly wider shape and not adjust to its original position. Not a big deal, I put it back in the case and it goes back to normal.

I mostly listen using the Default setting and didn't find them bright, at least not to the point where it would cause any fatigue, even after long listening/gaming sessions. The bass while using the Warm preset is a bit muddy.

I plan to pick up the pleathers to compare.
