Hi,
 
I'm having an issue with finding spare parts.  I want a a new Velour head pads and new foam.
 
First I've found out that beyerdynamic fixed the hair problem with a new foam. http://www.beyerdynamic.de/shop/hah/spareparts/schaumstoffscheibe-2.html
 
I would like to get this, but I don't know how to find it anywhere else, for example Ebay,Amazon.
 
Does this comes with the new foam ? http://www.beyerdynamic.de/shop/hah/spareparts/ohrmuschelsatz-31.html      , or do I need to buy it seperatley only ?
 
 
 
I saw someone who sell on ebay 2 kinds of thickness, he says it's better than original and gives 2 different sounds

Is this true ?  it's not original but I would like to know what you think about it.
 
 
 
Would this give better sound and protection than the original DT990 Head pads ?

Or should I just go for the originals always ?

You should go for the original pads, anything else is going to alter the sound one way or another. The headphone's stock pads are the right thickness and size for the headphone's tune. You could change the pads, but know that the sound might change, and possibly not for the better.

But I do want the ones that has better hair protection, they are original and just better. you talked about all the others ?
 
So can I still buy this http://www.beyerdynamic.de/shop/hah/spareparts/schaumstoffscheibe-2.html without any  quality degeration ?

  They probably won't be original pads unless it's Beyerdynamics eBay or Amazon page.

Ye, that's what I need, I tried to search the specific new foams from Ebay,Amazon  but I couldn't find anywhere that it says it's the "new" ones. I don't know how to detect them, they just look the same..
 
There are many original beredynamic sellers.
 
This is their Code ID : 910236
 
 
 
 
EDIT : I'll just order from Beredynamic, it seems the prices on the site not expensive at all, the delivery just be a bit stiff to Israel from delivery company. but one time cost is ok.  And the site says Foam pad New, so you'll know it's the new one.

Go for these. I bought them last year .Extremely good quality, no sign of weariness, and sound is the same as stock pads.

eventually I ordered straight from beredynamic germen, I've found out it is cheaper.  The one you've suggested is the same model as the white one but just black. I ordered x4 foam new as they call it, the new version.  x2 Ear pads, and x2 600ohms speakers cause I have the old DT990 headphones that had hair problems on the speakers that was getting out of hand, the hair just passed through the foams. it's the 2nd time I repair this heaphones cause of hair,, cost me like $150 overall.
 
the x2 ear pads comes with the new foams already, but what the hell, beredynamic were nice to give me x4 extra foams, they even wanted to give me x2 free at first.  but because I ordered x4 already they said they'll include x4 more, show me someone in amazon or ebay does that xD
 
with this headphones better safe than sorry, even the tiny "crap" that comes inside the ear pads just ruined everything that comes out, it's annoying karama.
