sorry to bump this thread up.
any suggestions on how to properly care for them?
especially on how to repair/prevent oxidation on the headphones and cleaning the pads?
Don't be sorry, this thread's here for a reason! How long have you been using yours? Because I haven't needed to worry about the pads yet and I've used mine for about 6 months. I feel like the pads should be good if you just keep a relatively clean head and don't throw them around on anything dirty. As far as oxidation, I don't really know what you're thinking about. The metal nature of the build? Cuz I haven't had any issues with that either. Don't get dirt and grime on them, maybe wipe down the metal with a cloth like once every month or so? Pretty much anything you'd do to take good care of any item: don't drop, wipe down every once in a while. People have shown that the pads are technically removable if you need to wash them, they're just glued in. I haven't needed to test those that though happily enough.
