Genuine Replacement Ear Pads Cushions for SENNHEISER HD650, HD600, HD580, HD660 S, HD565, HD545 Headphones

I have owned my HD600's for about 39 months and they get an enormous amount of use. This is the second pair of these wonderful headphones I have owned, the first pair being shortly after they were first introduced to the market back in the 90's. Back then I was working a second shift job and at some point while I was away my autistic son who was just a toddler got his meat hooks on them and for whatever reason he placed them inside the dishwasher. Of course my wife had no idea and they got a bath. End of those!So years later I decided to give the 600's another listen and I typically listen to them 4-5 hours daily. Recently the pads got a cleaning of sorts just using my fingers and a slightly damp cloth, but I noticed that the pads were beginning to deteriorate just a little bit and I wanted to replace them. They were still serviceable but in all honesty they were getting a bit flat. A bit smashed. I saw a number of options for replacement and I read the reviews which mentioned how other products changed the sound signature or were hot or not deep enough so I decided to go the OEM route and I would suggest you do the same.Replacing the cups is really straight forward; just gently grab the top/bottom and sides and tug gently. Remove the cup and inner foam and the replacements drop right in. Give a gentle push and they will clip on and remain firmly in place until you need to remove them again.So here's my opinion. They feel like brand new headphones minus the new headphone clamping. I didn't get a sense of renewed clamping at all. My ears sit inside as they had before, the pads are just comfortable as can be and they look like brand new once again. Same sound.signature They may seem to be a bit pricey but they are absolutely worth the money if you love your Sennheiser cans. Highly recommended.

I love my Sennheiser HD 600s for working late at night or double checking mixes I do with my monitors. Unfortunately the velour pads get kind of compressed and funky after awhile. I sweat a lot so after awhile my pads got kind of gross.I'd looked into getting leather pads or something else that wouldn't absorb so much perspiration, but all my research indicated that using any materials other than what were stock would radically change the sound profile. I decided to go with the authentic pad replacements. Installing them was as easy as pulling the old pads out, and then just clicking the new ones into place making sure that everything was latched all the way around each can.The first thing I realized was that I'd gotten used to the speakers being MUCH closer to my ears than they should have been over the years since the old pads had gotten compressed. The second thing I noticed was how much the sound quality was restored. I was worried that perhaps after years of heavy use, they started to "burn in" and change in a not so good way, but it turns out that the problem was 100% my old disgusting ear pads. Now that I have fresh authentic pads in place, the sound is as clear and detailed as I remember them being.Now I need to make sure to schedule a replacement regularly to avoid this happening again in the future. The authentic pad replacements are a little more costly than some of the 3rd party options out there, but if you bought a pair of headphones compatible with these pads, I'm assuming sound quality is important to you. Spend a little more to get the real deal and you'll be glad you did.

Works great, awesome quality and does what it is meant for. Good price and would buy it again!

The bag it came in was a sticker matching the part number on Sennheiser's store as well as a saying it was from Sonova Germany on the bottom. Sealed packaging, looked legitimate. Compared to the pads on the Senn I bought used in 2020 that desperately needed the pads replaced, they match the size/feel/etc (except clean and new ;)) filters also matched. Seller was "AUDIO EQUIP". About a $10 premium over the official Sennheiser store, but saying they've been out of stock there for a while and these come with next day shipping, worth the premium.Putting them on isn't difficult, but you do have to press down HARD on the pads to get them to click in place securely. One of mine fought me a bit to clip in. They're much easier to put on than say the Meze earpads.Anyway, sound quality, feel, etc matches the stock earpads. Overpriced? Sure but hey, Sennheiser decided to price these foam pads at like $43 so blame them...

Beautifully straightforward and incredibly comfortable. They actually snap into place over a foam pad that separates your ear from the speaker in the headphone.

I forgot exactly how nice new Senn pads felt before swapping out my old pads of three years of age. It's a bit pricy, but I bit the bullet, and it's worth it. Extremely comfortable, and will last you years.

The first pair I ordered was fake (it was not the fabric ear pads and did not match my existing 6XX earpads) but when I returned and re-ordered, the correct ear pads came. Brought new life to my headphones again! Highly recommend. These snapped into place perfectly into my headphones. Music sounds crisp again. :)

You know everything about them already. If you want to retain the original sound, feel and durability, these will do it. I've never put 3rd party pads on the 650 because they are essentially perfect from the start. To me it's worth paying extra.
