Just a word of warning. I wouldn't put peel and seal on my headphones. If that stuff gets too hot it starts melting and dripping, which could be bad. Probably not a problem most of the time, but if you heat the cups later to open them, I could envision peel and seal melting. I would stick with a rubber based dampener like Dynamat Extreme or anything from secondskinaudio.com
I have seen a number of peel and seal installs in cars go horribly wrong... Again, headphones are not the harsh environment you get in a car, but I wouldn't risk it. I might be acting too cautious though....
My thoughts exactly.
I'm a Car Audio guy myself and that cheap crap has no place in a vehicle or a pair of headphones.
For the purposes of headphone mods a product like Blutac, Loctite, and Elmers clay products which are just non hardening modeling clay is superior.
I've used it to deaden the interior walls of kick panels....for those not familiar with car audio kick panels are speaker enclosures built from scratch that are mounted to the area forward of the door opening that meets the floor.
I've NEVER used a Dynamat type product inside a speaker enclosure.....which is what a headphone is after all.....a speaker enclosure you place on your ear.
