Geekria Mesh Fabric Headband Pad Compatible with Sennheiser HD650, HD660 S, HD 660S2 Headphones, Replacement Band Repair Part (Black).

I bought a pair of Sennheiser HD650 headphones 13 years ago, initially for hi-fi listening, but nowadays I use them extensively for music production. They still sound great, but in recent years the headband cushion has collapsed entirely, making them quite uncomfortable - I'm sure the hard plastic headband was starting to indent my skull! I finally decided / remembered to look for a replacement cushion, and was pleased to find this. I don't need new ear-cushions - yet - so was glad not to have to buy a full set.There were no fitting instructions included, but it was easy to find some youtube videos. It only took a couple of minutes to remove the old and install the new. The result is really comfortable! Well worth it.

It's available, unlike the official, and cheap. Perfect for my Sennheiser HD 660 S. Comparing them, they felt and looked identical. Also, a tip for anyone who sees this, there are two slots in the headband for this to go, make sure you put this in the bottom one and not the top. Top is for the headphone arms themselves.

Please see attached photo on how actually it looks when installed on Sennheiser HD600.It nowhere as thick as sellers photos appear to claim. Either listing photos were edited to make it look thicker or maybe it was really as thick when it was released but at some point was made thinner (e.g. to save on costs).Pad seems to be ok otherwise, but too early to say on how long it will last especially in comparison with genuine one (which lasted several years). I will update review afterwards.

I've had my HD650 for 15 years and the original headband cushion wore out a long time ago but I just presumed to replace it would be a pain and/or costly. When I spotted this listing I thought I'd give it a go as anything has to be better than what I was putting up with. Arrived the next day, and found a quick youtube video showing how to remove the old band padding and insert the new, and all done in 3 minutes. Easy peasy. The padding feels really nice and the value is good. Will see how long it last but would be more than happy to replace this every couple of years now I know how simple it is.

Easy to install, fits and comfortable

The headband seems good quality but it's like the plastic band is too thick. It was a struggle to get the two earphones back onto the band part. They are so tight, I can't adjust the headphones anymore and they are stuck in position.

Good but very fiddly to put on headphones, needed to trim to get to fit.
