Thanks, already did that, but I didn't find any mod labeled "All Paxmate"

My T50RP is currently mostly DBV 3 but some differences in material I'm still playing with.


Pardon. Table of Contents Chapter 22

$20, great pads, available via Prime, what's not to love?

Those won't fit without a TON of stretching and possibly ripping the pads.


I've done it with >a dozen sets of T50s, it just takes patience (a small dab of mineral oil doesn't hurt either). The secret is stretching them before trying to fit them on the headphones.

Pre-stretching is the key, with just a small dab of mineral oil. I've not torn a pad yet.

Magick Man,
 
I will try this. Thanks for the help and links!
 
I ripped several pairs before going with micmacmo's Inner Tube Ear Pad Flap mod for HM5 and FA-003 pads ---> Perfect seal. Easy On / OFF. No pad stretching / tearing. Your tip will help those of us without sewing skills.
 
Do you put the mineral oil on both sides of the flaps...let it soak in first...stretch in all directions?
