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

These are great replacement pads for the DT770, DT880, DT990, Custom One Pro, and any similar sized pair of headphones. The leather is soft and feels great against the skin. Though the price isn't cheap, these pads are made well, and extremely comfortable. Best of all, they improved the sound of my DT770.InstallationThese particular Dekoni Elite Lambskin pads fit the Beyerdynamic DT series as well as the Custom One Pro. I have both the DT770 32 Ohm and the Custom One Pro headphones - these pads fit easily over them. In fact, they are much easier to get into place than the pads that come with the headphones. Like the stock pads, these pads have a lip around them that fit over the outside edge of the headphone cups. But unlike the stock pads, the lip on these is larger and easier to pull around the earcups than the stock pads. So as a result, installing these onto the headphones takes a lot less time and effort.ComfortOf course the most important aspect of any pair pads is comfort. I've had these Dekoni Elite pads on for hours without any issues of soreness or pressure. As far as heat goes - my ears do get a little hot I will admit - but not anymore than they did with the stock pads - and even that wasn't much. Also, since these are leather - they do not "absorb" sweat or moisture like fabric pads do. The pads fit around my ears, and not on them (like the stock pads). So my ears are never sore from any pressure the pads apply. Lastly, the memory foam is very soft and comfortable. They are like big pillows around my ears. These pads are definitely a step-up from the stock pads in every way.SoundThe bass response improves with these pads on - probably because they insulate better than the stock pads. In the case of the Custom One Pro, the bass becomes slightly more boomy. While this was initially impressive; I didn't keep the pads on the Custom One Pros for long. Those headphones are already bass-heavy - no need to add more. When these pads were installed on the DT770, the bass response is improved, and the treble was slightly rolled off. This is actually what I wanted - because I felt that the DT770 lacked a bit of bass to begin with, and the treble could sometimes be a bit harsh (a well-known attribute of the DT770). So for me, the DT770's sound improved enough that I would call this a worthwhile purchase. (I will admit that I still run my DT770 through a headphone amp and DAC to further imrpove the sound.)ConclusionIf you have a DT770 (or any headphone that fits), and you want to improve the bass response - get these Dekoni Elite Lambskin pads. They are easy to install, feel great, and the materials are top notch. They are also much easier to install than the stock pads - and will likely last longer.

I'm an adult computer enthusiast, a gamer, and I enjoy a variety of music and podcasts. My Astro headset died after years of use. In an effort to spend my money wisely, I did some research on my next headset. ZeosPantera and his Z Reviews helped me settle on the Beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Generation) as the headset of choice. I enjoyed his videos so much (despite knowing I simply do not fully appreciate sound in the way he and most of his audience does), I ended up watching a whole slew of them (and, I'll admit, still play a few every now and then -- I'm hooked). Anyways, in one of his videos, he runs through at least 10 variations of Dekoni Audio Replacement Ear Pads, using them on a dozen or so different sets of headphones/headsets, including the Beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Generation). For each, he ranks the ear pads and recommends what works best. For the Beyerdynamic MMX 300 (2nd Generation), he gave this particular ear pad high marks. So, I splurged and bought them.First, these are very well made, and as I prepared to install them I had a chance to physically compare them to the stock ear pads. I'll tell you Beyerdynamic makes an excellent product, but they need to consider contracting with Dekoni because their pads are both visually superior and a tactile examination clearly reveals they are softer and made from superior materials.I installed them. Easy. These fit snug and are fully compatible. If you have MMX 300's, these work and fit very well.My ears aren't especially discriminating. Sure, I know what sounds good and what sounds like poop. The stock pads sound good and feel okay. I do wear glasses and the stock ones did over time hurt a bit, but that's what you get when you're old and got'ta wear specs. It's a tough life and you got'ta put up with some first-world problems, right? So, these new pads sound better. Don't look to me to tell you why or use the right words to describe it. They are just better. I like them. I think you will, too. Zeos agrees. Trust him. Look to him for the right words to explain how and why. I just don't have them to offer you.They're also much more comfortable. The first-worldw problem solved. They feel great, even when wearing them for hours. I'm happy I spent extra money on these pads after spending a bunch of money on some great headphones. If you're hemming-and-hawing over whether it's worth the extra costs, just do it. In the long run, you'll agree it was a worthwhile investment.Now, back to Z Reviews. They're fun.

Got the choice leather, extremely comfortable and increases bass without using EQ so you retain audio clarity. Highly recommended.

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.

In my humble opinion, the velour ear pads were the only flaw on my mmx300 headset.Everything is better with these pads; sound, comfort, passive isolation and looksI had to watch video to figure out installation so only 4/5 :P everything else is perfect

Super comodos, no se calientan para nada, el material es un poco mas rasposo de lo que esperaba pero no molesta y el sonido es mucho mas balanceado al menos en los 177X, lo que si es que se pierde algo de aislamiento, pero igual es mejor que unos abiertos.

1-2 minutes to intsall them, makes the headset a tad bit bassier

Great ear pads. Very comfy. As described.1 star due to receipt for original price for the ear pads being in the box, seeing I paid almost double what they were purchased for is very disheartening. Will not purchase from this vendor again.

They seem to sound the same to me, but they feel great and no were near as hot on your ears as original fitted ones I use blue light glasses an they seem comfortable as well.
