If I am seeing this correctly, this pad does not appear to be made correctly. The part that you tuck into the groove should go all the way around. I think it is defective. Meze should send you new pads.

I have un-tucked it before fitting to headphone. If pad falls off tomorrow again, I'll use your advice in discussion with Meze. Many thanks!

LOL. That's one jacked up pad (S)

So part of the leather lip was trapped but you have released it? If it seems securely tucked into the groove now it should be ok. Looks like someone was sloppy when they first put the pads on. How long have you had your Meze?

I am sure come Monday morning someone at Meze, most likely Lorand, will be looking over this thread and you will have a message waiting soon after requesting shipping info to have a new pair sent to you. This is how awesome Meze is!

Yeah, how long have you had these headphones? Does the lip not go all the way around or is it just tucked in?

I purchased my Meze early October 2017, so it is definitely covered by warranty. And I have not had any issues with them until this pad fell off.

Lip does go all the way around, it was tucked in.

I think it will be fine now. I am surprised it stayed on as long as it did. Good that you have documented this with photos.

Keep my fingers crossed

There is a hard plastic (I think) ring inside the ear pad, under the lip area that goes into the groove on the ear cup. If not mistaken, it is possible that projected out and covered part of the plastic outer lip area, preventing it from going into the groove. See if that is the case with yours, you may be able to shift that out and under the lip where it belongs.

Will these sound good plugged directly into the headphone jack my of MacBook pro?

Thanks, that's what I've done while fitting pad back last time. So far it survived one hour on the go, so hopefully should be OK now.

Yes. You won't achieve their full potential, but yes.

Gonna order these from UK to use on the go with iPhone 6s and work laptop. Is the low end in them bloated when playing out of iPhone?

Can anyone recommend a good balanced cable? I'm willing to look at various budgets.

Meze's own balanced cable

Should be one of the best for them.
