The Ear Pads Thread (post questions or say what ear pads worked for you)

Well I guess you CAN put the new HM5 pads on the T50RP... @peter123 has done it in the FIMM thread, he says it takes a lot of stretching and about 5 minutes a pad to get them to fit.
 
This post here describes the sound of the new Velours on the DBV3 T50RP's.

For future reference, the HM5 thick pads does fit Denon D600. Original Denon ear pads cost around 80USD so I opted for these. From a short audition, the boominess seems to be lessened, not sure that I like it though.

Well, I'm back from vacation and someone I know was super generous and gave me their Beyerdynamic D770 pads because they bought the velours and didn't have a use for the stock ones. TIME TO GET MODDING! I plan on seeing what I can do with these on my Monoprice 8323's. Don't worry, if it turns out good, I'll post pictures and info.

anyone know how to make replacement pads for sony's mdr 1r? it doesn't have to be exactly the same as the original as long as it works and wont mess with the sound so much. aftersales support and spare parts are non existent in my country.

I have no answer to this, but I just got Rick Roll'd so hard.
(I usually Spanish inquisition people instead of Rick roll. :D pretty funny... Cuz nobody expects the Spanish inquisition.)

Does anyone know of any pads that are around 76mm/3in diameter? The stock ATH-WS77 pads suck because they are too shallow and awkward. I need something with a depth of over 1 inch on the inside. Also no more than 35$. Thanks for any suggestions guys!

EDIT: Material doesn't matter to me. These are bass tilted portables. Preferably keeping the sound as close to stock as possible. Any more bass and these might be a little too bassy.

I see 75mm pads being sold on eBay,  I wouldn't worry about the 1mm difference at all.  Maybe more than 5mm difference would give you a hard time.

is there a good tutorial online line for stiching like a pro? I'm gonna make my own earpads X_x LOL


PM member Lohb, as he sold me some custom Denon pads with velour stitching on the top that are awesome. Maybe he can give you some tips.

I am only going to be able to use Amazon. (dad doesn't trust eBay.) And I'd like a suggestion because I need a deep pad. My ears stick out 4/5th of an inch.

Anyone know of any good velour pads that would fit my Sennheiser HD 380? I read somewhere the HD 5x5 series pads should fit, can anyone confirm this? Other suggestions would be very welcome as well.
