elmo 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2005 There are many cheap ear pads around, but just can't fit. Like Beyer DT 231, if u examine carefully, its ear-pad comes in a form of clip-on frame, not only the sponge, so you have no choice but to buy from Beyer. But usually, for a less than $100 headphone, you need to pay around 25-30% for its replacement, hard to stomach sometimes. Not so much when your gear costs 200-300.

elmo 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2005 Yon I don't mean that. It is a matter of relative - for the same price ear-pad, its percentage in terms of the cans' cost will differ greatly, say between a $89 cans and a $499 cans. BTw anyone knows, besides the agent, where can I buy beyer ear-pads, in sls? Agent's office (pasir panjang) is too far from where I stay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
