Ear pads are also known as ear cushions – these are the comfortable fabric material that sits on your ears and transfer the sound sound from your headphones to you.
If you've owned your pair of headphones for some time it's likely that your ear pads are either battling smells, stains or general ageing from ongoing usage. This is one of the only parts of the headphones that really deteriorate so by replacing you ear pads you can renew your headphones to their former glory.
Each model of headphones is slightly different so on each individual product page we have either supplied a video tutorial or written a written a detail explanation of the process. They generally follow a process of pulling or prying off your existing ear pad and applying your new ones. You will do this by hand or with a tool like a flat head screwdriver and new ear pads will are easily applied with a double sided sticky tape, pressing hooks or twisting into position.
Yes, if you're not confident with replacing your ear pads yourself then we also offer an ear pad replacement service. You can opt for a repair by navigating to the 'Repair' page which can be found on the top header of our site. The process will generally take around a week for your to have your headphones back with you.
The big question that everybody is wondering... No! It is only possible to by manufacturer branded ear pads directly from the manufacturer for a much higher price and usually they do not even supply replacement parts. If anybody is saying otherwise then they are being disingenuous.
We offer a cost effective alternative to buying new headphones and by searching what available in the after market, we've completed the job of finding the best quality parts available and in many cases they are indistinguishable from the original. One brand that does sell replacement ear pads is Apple - their current price for replacement ear pads is £75 whereas our price is £20. If you are not happy with the ear pads then you can send them back for a refund with 0 questions asked.
Yes, but in a positive way! Over time, original ear pads flatten or crack, which allows sound to leak out and ambient noise to seep in. High-quality replacement pads restore the "acoustic seal" around your ears.
Our core business is our headphone repair service, Fix Headphones.
