Are the ear pad replaceable? If so, which one would you recommend?

I don't believe you can replace them. They appear to be built in to the headphone. The only way possible to do so would be to completely take apart the headphone

I know, I don't like the foam ones either. But there is another alternative I found and been using and far more comfortable! They are the TV Ears Rubber Silicone Extra/Replacement Ear Tips. They're really good though you fork out cash more but it's worth your comfort. Hope this helps.

I just examined mine pretty thoroughly, and I see no evidence of any asymmetry going on with the pads. They are somewhat of an oblong shape, but that is the same with both....Maybe yours are defective in some way? I would call Philips, maybe you could ask them how you would go about replacing these earpads as well, since there appears to be no way to do it.....

You can get the OEM pads for a relatively low price here: https://sony.encompass.com/item/5410896/Sony/3-246-367-01/Pad_Ear

Ah, I see. Thank you. I did buy the e2cs, and unfortunately I cannot get any of the pads to fit my ears, so any idea what prices run on the ear molds and where I can get them??Thanks!

Mine is a model I bought about 3 years ago and haven't need to replace them. Searching the Jabra FAQ site shows that it is possible by removing the three screws under the ear pad.

Min broke recently and I bought (12 Pc Lg Hbm255, 260, Lg HBM 280 Ear Hooks / Foam Buds Repair Set Compatible (3-black, 3-translucent Ear Hooks & 6 "Foam" Ear Buds) By Gadgetbrat) as a replacement. They tend to be a bit smaller and are more loose on the unit but work okay. at least there are 6 of them so when another breaks which is inevitable, you have a replacement handy and don't have to go days without. There are other replacements available on Amazon.com but these were the least expensive.

Easy to get replacements. Just look for a 2 inch foam earpad/ear pad replacement. Something like this: foam Pad 2-Inch ear cover for philips sony headphone 3pr

I just spoke to a Sennheiser rep yesterday regarding replacement pads. He told me they would be $13 (pads/shipping). I told him I'd just buy another pair since I bought mine through Amazon for $26.74.

You can try looking up ebay for individual parts or send an email to Audio Technica USA. I don't know if it's just me but customer service was exceptionally nice. They sent a replacement head rest a year after initial purchase. In the email I, included my address and the invoice order/# from Amazon as proof which i screen shot. I believe they may do the same for your ear pads or provide info on possible spares. Other than that, you may have to look up audiophile forums.

After many years of frequent use, my OEM ear pad covers wore out. I searched, but did not find reasonably priced OEM or aftermarket replacements. So, I bought a pair of otherwise worthless earphones at a dollar store which had a quite similar size and shape ear pad set. I carefully removed the covers and put them on the NC-6 headphones and they fit quite well, although not as refined in appearance as the originals. So I cut two ovals of a black silky fabric (approximately 3" x 2-1/2") and sewed drawstrings around the perimeter. I covered the foam, cinched the drawstrings, and now the look and feel great. Cost $1.00 for the cheap headphones and less than $1.00 worth of fabric. Better than new, IMO... After many years of frequent use, my OEM ear pad covers wore out.

Don't think so. The padding over the speaker part that goes over ur ear is kinda build into the headphone. If u really wanted to remove it I'm sure u can but I don't know about replacing it

Yes, they can be removed and reconfigured. They are basically a rubber "funnel" that is stretched over the ear bud.

i am not sure what you are asking. Are you asking of the headphones can be replaced with ear plugs?

I have been using a pair of these headphones for several years. They continue to work great, but the cushions are beginning to peal off of the earpieces. I did not think of looking for replacements for the cushions to replace them. Instead I bought a new set of headphones. But I would like to try to repair the old ones to save some cash for next time. Will you share where you purchased the replacement cushions? I have used my headphones with several different mp3 players but none of them were ipods.
