Dekoni Audio Earpads for Beyerdynamic DT Series - Comfortable Replacement Ear Pads for DT 990 Pro, Enhanced Sound Quality, Durable Design (Choice Suede)

So far so good! installation was a bit annoying but I didn't take the time to use a hairdryer to loosen up the elastic. It wasn't superbly difficult but I could see how it would get frustrating as it seems like whenever you get one spot on the last undoes itself. I did get them on at a point, and once I did I noticed quite a sound quality change from my DT 770 80Ohm editions. There is definitely a change in audio quality from the stock velour pads to the Choice Leathers, and it is one that makes these headphones significantly more enjoyable. The first track I tried was the Ursula's Cartridges' remix of Climbing the Corporate Ladder, and right away there was significantly more impact in the low end, which is usually a lot lighter on Ursula's tracks. Soundstage also has opened up in a surprising way, directionally I can sense things a better, more reminiscent of an open back headphone, however you will still know these are closed. Higher frequencies are less piercing and stab your ears a lot less. The next track I listened to was 思い出, by t e l e p a t h. This track seldom is flattered by headphones, and I thought it sounded meh on the dt770 stock pads, however the track really opened up and sounded quite pleasing on these. Seems to grant slightly more clarity as well as the other benefits that this has. The third track that I listened to was Happy Cycling by Boards of Canada, and right away there is significantly more detail on the low end bass drum strike at the start of each measure. So much detail I can easily hear the grit on the strike of it. The song also feels to me like its presenting faster and tighter than it has before, very pleasing!I got these because I use my DT770's as my communication headphones as well as casual music listening. The outer noise attenuation is one of my priorities when I was considering a pad swap, and these seem to be a step-up in that department as well.Comfort is higher, I really liked the velour as it was very soft with the slightly intense clamp force of the dt770s, the leather seems a bit more firm and I don't quite like it. As the memory foam ages I am sure it will start to have more give, and as the headphones age I am sure they will also become more comfortable.After a few days of heavy use, I have determined that these pads are indeed quite nice. They make these headphones sound more full, with much more pleasing response and resolve. I have one slight complaint, as the sleeving that the cups use to hold onto the cans can be quite flimsy, and you may lose the earpad from time to time.All in all, I would absolutely recommend these to anyone wanting to take their DT770 pros to the next level. When comparing them to my HE-560 V4s I think they're a phenomenal challenger in the race that is "which my favorite pair of headphones."

These are pricey but well worth. You get what you pay for. Used on the DT 770. Used to replace stock pads.This is a great brand for pads.

Comfortable. Better than the stock earpads that come with the DT 770 Pro. The pads are thicker and my ear doesnt get squeezed on the hard plastic frame between the pad and the surface like with the stock ones.Sound did not get affected much except as other users have mentioned. A bit more bass was added etc. Refer to other reviews for a more thorough audio review.In terms of durability this is a new purchase so I'll update it later if I find it didnt last long enough.

I purchased a second set of AKG K240 headphones after giving my last pair to my son.I have never thought the pads that come with the AKG K240 were very comfortable, so once again, I purchased a replacement set of earpads. Last time, I bought velour earpads directly from AKG.I came across these Dekoni Audio Elite Hybrid Earpads and it seemed to be the perfect balance of velour against the ear for comfort and higher quality real leather for sound and less peeling of the material.As the description states, the Beyerdynamic DT Series version does fit the AKG K240s perfectly.I do find them to be the most comfortable earpads I have ever tried.I do not find that they improve the sound quality. In fact the bass seems just a bit more muddy than before, but unless I focus on it, I do not really care. I do care about the comfort 1,000x times more.Since I purchased this headset for 50% off, I actually paid more for the earpads than I did for a set of highly respected headphones. But that is probably why the ones that came with the AKGs are so uncomfortable... AKG is prioritizing sound and cost over comfort and long term wear.
