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.

Any way of getting say leather type ear pads for this head-set? Foam no matter how careful you are wears out fast, and this head-set hurts your ears and head once the foam padding begins to wear ....Thanks in advance. :)

Scansound is good because they help you select exactly the right size to order. They are bad because they charge you $5 postage for an item that costs a dollar to mail.

Chances are you broke the cover clip when you removed it or you are not lining it up correctly to "catch" in the clip holes when you put the cover back on. I doubt you can get a replacement cover b/c these are OLD headphones--at least mine are. The battery pack fit perfectly in my unit, thats really all I can say.

Music works good just the microphone isnot working. Also the golden color outer cover of the headphone felt off last week. Is there anyway you can send this little part to me so i can glue it back on?

I have extras because I bought a new pair of headphones, but all I can say is get them from Best Buy along with insurance so you can just get a new pair if that happens. Its cheap and they're bound to keep these for a while...otherwise maybe ebay.

The headset comes with a foam pad and leatherette pad. I have not been able to find replacements...no replacement covers for the boom either

I was wondering the same thing! I had a puppy chew one ear pad but the headphones are not damaged! So, instead of spending money on a new pair of headphones, I'd like to buy replacement pads!!

I was in this situation, and ordered replacements from the OT page directly. Admittedly, they send you a full new set, rather than just the ones you want. 3rd party options likely have a heavy 'buyer beware' warning. I wanted mine to fit on the device without any issue.

Well, you can find pretty easy in Amazon Yurbuds Earbud Covers, however you will not want to pay half the price a new pair of yurbuds. If you really like them, just get a new pair.

I have the same issue and have not been able to find a cover anywhere. Please let me know if you find one.

I put the covers on Sony model MDR-023, which are oval/oblong and they fit perfectly. The covers are flexible so they should fit your headphone.

I have not lost them, they're on pretty tight. I considered taking them off though... maybe a little more aerodynamic since air can flow through? I would have no idea where to look for replacements.

I have misplaced the the tips that came with the V-MODA Vibe Earbuds. Do you know where I can find the replacements? The Apple Store did not have any and couldn't help.

The earbuds that came with my phone lasted about a year before the earpieces began to come apart. It was my own fault though. I carried them in my bag without a case or any other protection. So they were constantly being crushed against other things. I would say if you have or can get the originals, take good care of them. It really is hard to replace that quality without spending too much money.

I don't sell them, but I got 3 pairs for $4 here : http://www.amazon.com/Foam-Cover-Philips-Headphones-2-5-16-Inch/dp/B0040FHB6C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376155635&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+mdr+nc6+ear+pads

I have not seen the covers being available anywhere online or by any supplier. If your covers are corroded, split, or broken, the only fix is to replace the switch. I recommend replacing both switches with new ones because eventually the plastic covers will continue to degrade and will be unusable. If you find any in the salvage yards, they will most likely be hard and brittle and will eventually fail. R. Black

I use the headphones for hours everyday and have never had to replace the covers but I have had to replace the headphones a few times over the years as one side will quit working but that's common with most styles I've tried.

The last time I replaced mine, I measured the diameter of the speakers (in millimeters) and then shopped Amazon for replacement ones that fit that size of headphones. Previously, they had always sent me really large Koss ones that I had to throw away.
