Review on Brainwavz Gel Gaming Replacement Earpads For ATH M50X,M40X, M50XBT & More - Compatible With Steelseries Arctis 3/5/7/9X Pro/Stealth And HyperX Cloud 1 & 2 - Oval Ear Pad - Black by Marcus Loeffler

I installed these pads on Phillips SHP9500. I bought pad adapters from Mod House Audio for $10 so I wouldn’t destroy my stock pads.Comfort: Perfection. I haven’t experienced pads more comfortable than these.Sound: SHP9500 stock pads have perforations in them that allow the sound to escape. This is a good thing with an open-back headphone because the sound will escape in the direction which increases Imaging.I mostly play Warzone, so I found the Brainwavs pads may not be optimal if you’re looking for Imaging. Reason being, they drastically increased the bass and midrange because the pads are a more closed-type not allowing the sound to escape. So I couldn’t tell exactly where sounds were coming from as well as I could with the stock pads.If it’s being marketed as a "gaming ear pad” then it needs to be more functional in the sound quality IMO.Conclusion: If you’re looking for more comfort, increased bass/midrange, and don’t mind sacrificing Imaging then these are for you.
