WCFreeze Cooling Gel Earpads - Compatible with HyperX Cloud, Steelseries Arctis, ATH M50X, G Pro X & More - Major Comfort Upgrade & Cooler for Longer | Black

I knew I wanted to replace the OEM earpads and couldn't decide. I took a chance on these and I am not disappointed. ANYTHING is more comfortable than the OEM earpads for me at this point. These do the job and I am 100% satisfied at the moment.I recently picked up some refurbished ATH-M50X to replace my home headphones. I use a pair of Bose QC25s at work and love the fit and feel, plus the NC is amazing in an office setting. When I put my new M50Xs on I was rather disappointed at how uncomfortable they are (by sitting at a desk for hours at a time in mind). My ears aren't abnormally large but they are large, I guess. I read a ton of reviews and suggestions online on how to make my M50Xs more comfortable and they all said get new earpads, but which ones. I was between these and Brainwavz. I previously purchased a pair from WC for my older V-Modas and they are great.Installing these was kind of difficult but it didn't take me more than 10 minutes. Neither the OEM or these new ones were damaged in anyway prior, during, or after removal and installation. They fit flat on the sides of my head and my ears can almost perfectly clear the insides (so much so that I know the top of my ear touches but I can't even tell). They seem to isolate sound slightly better but nothing compares to ANC, anyways.The cooling affect doesn't seem to be noticeable on my head. If these are cooler compared to the OEM and other types of headphones, then wow. My Bose headphones stay cool for multiple hours and I never even notice. These get warm quickly, and I have to take them off once an hour to cool down my ears.I am not an audiophile (my ears are kind of shot anyways), so I don't notice or care about the lowered sound quality due to the increased distance your ears are from the drivers (at least I think that's what causes the decrease in sound quality). These headphones still sound great for music, movies, YT, and gaming. I'm not editing, mixing, or recording.

First and foremost, these replacement ear pads do not change the sound profile whatsoever. At the very least, listening to a song that I know very well, I can't perceive any difference. Next, these new cushions are much firmer than the stock ones and stock-like replacements. I appreciate the part that touches your head is a mesh material and not the fake leather. The cooling sensation is probably a bit overblown, and I do feel my ears get warmer with these on, but I sweat less. Finally, this is probably my second or third pair of ear cushions. I've owned my ATH-M50x's for 10 years. This isn't my first rodeo replacing the ear cushions. I have to say, this is probably the easiest set I've ever installed. I've fumbled with these way less than I did the previous set. Would buy these again in a heartbeat.

I got these for my audio technica ath m50xbt headphones. The construction of the earpad is great and is super comfy without making your headphones look massive on your head. They are a little smaller than my previous pads which detracts from the comfort a bit but are otherwise a massive improvement from the stock pads which were unusable for me. The leather sides make the noise isolation very strong, to the point where I got that noise canceling headphone pressure feeling. It's a very minor discomfort though and it also improves the bass response which i really like. The mesh-leather combo is amazing and gives the best of both worlds. The cooling gel is there and does help but it's not as "cool" as i hoped it'd be, you could maybe skip on that part and save the money. Great product overall but not perfect.

I cannot tell you how much more comfortable these pads are!!!!!! I will never go back to regular pads ever again. They look great but they are also super comfy. No brainer…….. buy em

I got these for my Ath-20x headphones and they are a great upgrade! These pads are so much more comfortable than the OEM pads and they sound better too, because of a better seal around the ear. They are easy to install because the pads on the ATH-20x are not glues on, you just pull them off and then wrap the new ones around the headset and they will slide right into the spot they need to be.

I've used and abused these headphone pads for three years straight. No special care nor protective things for it, just raw, constant use and they served me well. The ~2x earpad depth serves both for comfort and a expanded soundscape, improving the range of sounds of the headphones. For what they're priced at, I couldn't ask for more, yet I got way more than expected.In short: le pad is gud.

Fits the headset, but the cuff part is smaller than the Arctis 7. They look good and fell like a good product.

These are a great replacement for worn out ear pads on Audio Technics ATH-M50. They are very comfortable on ear and make the headphones feel brand new. I was especially appreciative of the installation videos they made that were linked by a QR code inside the package. Short ~2.5 video that does a great job of explaining how to install with tips to avoid problems. Very impressed with the attention to detail!
