Are the ear pads replaceable? Like if they start to get worn out and start cracking is it possible to replace them?

 

[NapalmK]

Yeah they are.
Here's a pair. Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Ear Pad | Sweetwater.com
Not sure how they are though.
I'm sure you can contact Audio Technica for a replacement set too. parts@atus.com

I'd recommend going with Audio Technica's Parts Division, since the ones Sweetwater sells are grossly overpriced at $10 each.

They slip on and off quite easily.

Yeah I saw that sweetwater site but didn't know if it was a legit store. I don't wanna get ripped off, you know.

Sweetwater is legit. They've been around for a while now, maybe even before online ordering.

Cool, thank you all for your help. Another question do the ear pads on the M50's come off as easy as these?

Doorbell,

You can also look into velour pads, if you're willing to experiment.

I haven't tried taking the pads off of my M50, but those velour pads sure do look comfy...

I have a pair of velours I bought for my M50s, but I sold the M50s before the pads came in for them. I'll sell them to you on the cheap
