Review on WC Wicked Cushions Upgraded Replacement Earpads For ATH M50X - Fits Audio Technica M40X / M50XBT / HyperX Cloud &Amp Accessories & Supplies by Weston Metzger

Update after 6 months of use: They change the sound too much for my taste, so I deduct 2 stars. The bass is overblown and the highs become spicy, dry and lose their shine. I've tried removing the mesh entirely and leaving the drivers open, but the results were the same. I suspect this is due to their thickness, which places the drivers much farther from your ears and changes the geometry of the resonator. I've tried Dekoni Pads which are honestly twice the price and I'm a lot happier now. If you are happy with their sound then this is definitely a great buy. Build quality is excellent for the price and the manufacturer seems like a company I'd be happy to support. It would be interesting to see how WC approaches Dekoni Pads in terms of form factor. I suspect this will fix the audio issue. First review below ------------------------------------------------------- Pros: Value for money -Ratio and quality, much better wearing comfort compared to the original ear pads - softer leather, memory foam, more room for your ears, no need. won't make me sweat - almost no change in sound performance compared to the originals (my experience is YMMV of course) - better noise isolation - better bass and lower listening volume Bad(ish) - more of a nitpick: - because these pads are way thicker than the headset, harder to fold and fit into the case - they were a bit more difficult to install compared to the originals. - The shape and seams between the two covers are slightly mismatched. Neutral: - The skin must not stand up to real leather.
