Sony Mdr G45 Headphones Pads

I needed to replace the ear pads on my Sony MDR-7506 headphones - this for the second time... I use them to monitor audio levels during production. The originals and previous replacements wore out quickly, leaving flakey black plastic bits all over my head, face and ears. NOT acceptable. I am trusting that Sheepskin leather will hold up much better.

As a audiophile I have other headphones I prefer if I want to simply listen to music however as a pro AV tech, this Sony MDR-7506 is the ONLY headphones I want when doing any kind of pro use from checking a mic line in a live mixing situation to mixing audio for video, this is my choice headphone. The Sony sound is flat, not a lot of bass but is exactly whats needed when mixing as you want flat. The isolation is good when blocking outside sounds and I find the Sony will hold up to pro use, except the ear pads those are replaceable, I would suggest go ahead and order the extra ear pads as you will need them. I have been using my original set of Sony MDR-7506 at least 12 years of pro work and are simply fantastic! Never a short or any problems but I am on my 4th or 5th set of ear pads as in a pro situation I am very hard on these phones. You may find a better sounding headphone but when mixing or using in the field for anything pro AV, this is the headphones to buy!

I love these earpads replacing the crumbling original Sony pads perfectly on my MDR-V6 headphones & MDR-7506 headphones

I have a decade old MDR-V6 SONY headphones. Replacing the old pads with Pearstone earpads made them like new. Could be a slight sonic difference compared to the old pads, but I just listen to music, so it didn't make any difference to me. The pads are more comfortable than the old ones.

Have had my Sony MDR-7506 headphones for the better part of ten years. They have held up wonderfully, but alas the earpads have not fared as well. The pads I had previously (can't remember if they were OEM or a second pair bought several years ago) were covered with a thin synthetic type membrane that eventually just disintegrated into shreds from normal wearing. I finally ordered these Auray pads from B&H and am loving them after a few weeks of daily use. I can't vouch for how long they will last, but I can pretty much guarantee it's going to be a lot longer than what I had previously. And, they are really comfortable! I was on the fence initially because of the slightly higher price, but now that I've been using them, I have no regrets and am really glad I sprung for these. Yay!

These pads were purchased to replace the original ones that came with my Sony MDR-7506 headphones. As stated in many of these reviews, the original pleather ones simply disintegrate after time and flake apart. These were very easy to install, are more comfortable (imho), and hopefully they will give new life to these phones for several more years. If you have a pair of Sony's that still work but you don't like all the black dandruff, do yourself a favor and pick up these replacements.

I had been looking for replacement pads for my Sony MDR-7506 headphones. Came across these and figured I would give them a shot. They were a little tough to put on (don't be afraid to stretch them a bit...) but once on they were comfortable. I'm happy :-)

Been using these for about a week and they are much better than the original pads that came with my Sony MDR-V6 headphones. Just opening them from the package and touching them for the first time will make it apparent. They definitely more durable and comfortable. It appears to be real leather and at the very least smells like it if you're into that. They are more comfortable and soft as well and have been much better for me as I wear glasses. They are a bit pricey but it's worth the money considering how pricey the Sony ones are if you buy another pair of the stock ones that came with the headphones. Thee definitely made me like my headphones again.

The ear pads on my Sony MDR-7506 headphones had become cracked and the outer layer was peeling. These were easy to replace and are more comfortable than the originals.

I was skeptical that these would fit my Sony MDR-7506 headphones because they are smaller than the original pads but with a little effort they install just fine. They feel much more sturdy and are equally if not more comfortable. They don't slip and slide around like the oem pads. Highly recommended.
