Headphone skins
Monday, March 28 2011 @ 08:00 PM CDT
Does anyone have any ideas of a good place to order new headphone skins from?
I have a pair of Sony's that I love, but the skins are all deteriorated, and a little nasty. I've looked at sony.com, and searched via the standard search engines, but no dice. Every person I've asked looks at me like I'm crazy. |

What do you mean by 'skins'? A lot of the Sonys offer replacement ear pads.....

Hi Ed - I've just been calling them the wrong thing all my life, which has contributed to not being able to find replacements! I looked up 'replacement ear pads' and that sir, is exactly what i want.
Thanks!!! |

you know I have a nice set of phones, and the earpads have started to disintegrate. every time I take them off, my wife asks "what's that black crap all over your head?" i blame it on the fact that I've gotten to the point where I have to wear reading glasses while working at the computer.
never thought to replace the pads. |

Sony phones seem to particularly like to shed little flecks of black vinyl....
And Grado phones have foam that sort of disintegrates over a long time.... Thankfully both of them make replacement pads, and there are also other manufacturers who make replacement pads....

By the way, Mr. Moped, I finally clicked on your icon photo and got to see the whole thing.... What a neat picture!....

I have a pair of Sony's that I let flake away. All that's left is foam. They work fine and not only have they stopped shedding, I also saved 20 bucks. Next I'm upgrading to a set of KRKs.
