These cooling gel replacement pads were a perfect fit for my SteelSeries Arctis 7X. My original pads fell apart after four years, and these made my headset feel brand new again. Super comfortable, easy to install, and a great way to extend the life of the headset!

These fit perfectly on my headphones and only took a minute or so to replace. These appear to be a good quality item. They function as they should. This doesn't affect the sound in any way different from the originals. They are comfortable. The material is different than the original pads. These pads have a smoother material, like a soft leatherette. They also have a more flat surface that doesn't curve toward the edge. I find them to be good replacements. The value for the price is very good.

These replacement ear cups fit and are comfortable, but they aren't very stable on my Arctis 9 pro - they are missing the plastic ring that the manufacturer has to secure the cups to the headset. They work, but they aren't very secure. You get what you pay for, basically.

Originally bought these to replace worn out pads on a artic 1 headset. The pads themselves are great and you can read other reviews for that. HOWEVER!! I also do music and the pads on my MDR7506's were also suffering. At the same time, I had been fighting a battle, trying to learn, love and understand the legacy these headphones have in their sound signature. It was just so sharp, and I really had to bump up the volume to get acceptable listening levels, but that would also in return raise the sharpness. Not to mention the strange lack of bass response. Well, I just had the random idea to throw these pads from my arctis to the 7506's and now they are my favorite tracking/monitoring headphones! Completely opened up the sound of the headphones by enclosing its sound and I'm now hearing how capable these headphones are because of a random thought I had. If anyone is looking for ear pads for their mdr7506's, these happen to be the same size and solve almost a 2-3 year old problem i've been having lol
