Hey,

Not sure if this is the right place, but it does make sense to put it hear.

I'm keen to replace the padding on the ear section of a pair of old headphones; any idea where, or any idea how much?

The headphones have a fair amount of sentimental value to me, so it's something I'd like to explore.

Ended up getting the Brainwavz HM5 from Amazon, and was lucky enough to have a friend flying in.

How do the pads fit?
Is a reasonably common thing to use pads from other cans.

I did a fair amount of research, and it seems the norm that there are several universal pads (but note, not all headphones can swap out); a common complaint is that the original Sony pads don't have the longest life span, and these were the highly recommended.

The fit is great, and it doesn't seem to have changed the sound quality, and I tested on 3x sets of head phones.

Price and where did you order them?
 
Very nice and fair price, is the memory foam noticeably more comfortable than previous earpads you've used?
