Buy Replacement Wire For Sennheiser 580 Headphones

These replaced my old Sennheiser HD 580, open back headphones. I’m a drummer and I chose them for their natural, even sound throughout the entire range. Very comfortable to wear for hours. Appreciate the 3 cables, wow! Awesome. Carry pouch is nice to have. Very pleased with them. Thank YOU!

While this replacement part is advertised by Sennheiser as only for the newer version of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro released since 2016, it fit great my older Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones bought around 2013. It doesn't seem like the replacement part for pre-2016 headphones is readily available, so I'd say just go with this. There are off-brand replacement pads available online, but I question their quality - the original pads served me well so I hope these original Sennheiser ones will too.

I've had Sennheiser headphones for a long time, I don't buy many pairs, but I do like how they sound and I use them for long sessions, both during work (unrelated to music or sound production) and for personal music listening at home. Since the split and sale of the consumer side of Sennheiser I've been wondering how the brand offerings will shake out. And since the handful of headphones I've had in the past generally reside in the $150 to $250 range the fact that range was sold off to another company gave me a bit of pause on where to get any new headphones I buy, the Pro line from Sennheiser themselves, or the consumer models from Sonova. I decided to try these new Pro line from Sennheiser themselves given the age (and ragged look) of an old headphone pair I'm retiring and I did have a bit of extra cash lying around so I decided to go for these HD 490 PRO's. After about two weeks with them, I can say I like their feel on my head, their sound, their weight, and the cord. I do have a pair with individual left and right cords, but this single sided cord is very nice. The price seems a bit high for headphones and I realize these are getting into the 'professional' area so the price would probably reflect that fact. So it didn't actually surprise me, but most casual listeners or non audio production people like me probably don't need to splurge on them either. That said, no regrets and if I had the cash, I would buy them again. The only minor thing that annoyed me about them was that on my older pairs the braille 'Left' mark that allows you to put them on correctly without looking at them is in the back on this pair whereas my older Sennheisers had it on the front of the ear cup. Again, I don't buy a ton of headphones so maybe there isn't any kind of set standard and I just happened to get two older models that had it on the front of the earcups. A very minor change, but something that I have to occasionally think about when putting them on.

This cable adapter is enabling me to use my old wire headphones.

No longer have to buy entire replacement headphones. B&H had what I wanted at the best price.

I'm really happy I could just buy these replacement pads and not have to buy a whole new set of headphones to play my Roland V-Drums with..They slipped on fairly easy.It just takes some time and patience.They fit good,Look good,and feel great to me..My MDR-7506's look and feel like they did when I bought them way back in 1996 !!! Thanks B&H !!!

I got this as a replacement for the adapter that came with my SONY MDR-7506 headphones. Fits perfectly. Buy it.

If you need a replacement, buy this one only!

The earpads on my (excellent) Sony MDR-7506 headphones wore out and I was about to recycle them, when I found these replacement earpads. Buy the deluxe version - they are better than the original plastic pads on the Sony 7506.

I use these headphones for mix n mastering. The wire they come with also works for the K240 MKII headphones as well.
